“Ceasefire ends at 4:50 am PST, 22 April,” Information Minister Attaullah Tarar posted on X, referring to Pakistan Standard Time.
The truce has been expected to end overnight Tuesday, though in comments to Bloomberg, US President Donald Trump said it would only expire a day later, on Wednesday evening Washington time.
Trump said it was “highly unlikely” he would agree to extend it.

He added that a decision by Tehran was “critical” before the truce expired.
