New Delhi: Amid a rapidly evolving situation between India and Pakistan, China has officially denied that they helped Islamabad by delivering relief supplies to Pakistan and threatened legal action against those spreading rumours.

Using fairly strongly words and threatening legal action, China's PLA said that recently, there has been a large amount of online information claiming that China's Y-20 strategic transport aircraft delivered relief supplies to Pakistan refuting these claims and noted that the internet is not a lawless land, and creating and spreading military-related rumours bears legal responsibility.

The statement from China comes at a time when India and Pakistan are gripped by high tensions, as the Indian armed forces have resolved to dismantle and neutralise terror camps located in Pakistan. These camps, backed and funded by Pakistan, have been responsible for orchestrating and executing several terror attacks in India over the years, including the 2001 Parliament attack, the 2008 Delhi bomb blasts, the 26/11 Mumbai terror attack, the 2019 Pulwama attack, and most recently, the 2025 Pahalgam terror attack.

China's open support to Pakistan 

Amid heightened tensions between India and Pakistan, China issued a statement openly extending its ‘rock solid’ support to terror sponsor and rogue state Pakistan.

Beijing's support to Pakistan has come as India planned a major anti-terror strike ‘Operation Sindoor’ against terror camps perpetrating in Pakistan, to avenge the Pahalgam terror attack when Pakistani terrorists killed 26 innocent civilians including 25 Indians and one Nepalese.

Key insights of Operation Sindoor  

According to the government sources, there is no surprise that Chinese weaponry was used by Pakistan amid tensions with India and it was Islamabad's biggest defence supplier.

While planning the anti-terror operation, sources say Prime Minister Narendra Modi said 'Inko mitti mein mila do' (ground them to dust) henceforth, terror camp Markaz has been ground to dust, others are next in line.

Government sources said that no place in Pakistan is safe for terrorists and nobody is untouchable, everyone is touchable. The psychological message sent was that the new normal is it is not business as usual any longer.

On this occasion, we have gone after the head of the snake and not foot soldiers. Operation Sindoor has sent a message to terrorists. No matter where you are in Pakistan we will hit you, government sources said.

On Trump's mediation offer, they added that India's stance has not changed. We will not discuss Jammu and Kashmir with Pakistan.

Pakistan changed its tune immediately after we hit their air bases. The next morning US NSA Marco Rubio called EAM S Jaishankar to say that Pakistan has understood, sources said.

When Pak tried to attack Udhampur, response was what PM had promised. We demolished 8 Pakistani air bases. At height of conflict, PM Modi told US VP Vance if Pakistan does anything, our response will be very very strong. 

Top officials said that India takes nuclear threat seriously but it cannot serve as a cover for Pakistan to come and do terrorism in our country, as per sources.

The new normal is the LoC will not protect them (terrorists), the International Border will not protect them, the nuclear threat will not protect them, sources added.

The sources mentioned that India called Pakistan's nuclear deterrence bluff after retaliating against the Pahalgam terrorist attack.

It was Pakistan which called first requesting for cessation of hostilities, the Director General of Military Operation (DGMO) said adding the cost will be fierce if Pakistan indulges in cross border terror attack on Indian soil.

India's Our air defence system foiled Pakistan air force's attempts to hit our installations adding India downed a few Pakistani planes, informed Air Marshal AK Bharti.
