Islamabad: Hours after the Indian armed forces carried out a series of precision airstrikes inside Pakistan and Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK), targeting terror camps and their launchpads, Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, already on the back foot and facing pressure from his citizens, resorted to misinformation warfare regarding Operation Sindoor.
Addressing Parliament following India's successful ‘Operation Sindoor,’ launched in retaliation for the Pahalgam terror attack in which Pakistan-backed terrorists killed 26 innocent civilians, including 25 Indians and one Nepalese national, who had come to Kashmir for vacation but met a tragic end on April 22, Shehbaz Sharif attempted to deflect from Pakistan’s losses.
India responded resolutely, determined to teach the perpetrators, handlers, and backers of terrorism a lesson they would never forget.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi issued a strong and unequivocal warning to terrorists, their supporters, and their sponsors, declaring that India would identify, apprehend, and bring them to justice.
However, refusing to acknowledge the severe blow India has delivered, Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is making baseless claims and resorting to misinformation warfare, asserting that Pakistani forces shot down five Indian fighter jets.
Praising the fake valour of his own forces, Shehbaz Sharif shamelessly claimed that India surrendered within hours following Pakistan’s so-called befitting reply, falsely alleging the downing of five Indian aircraft. While the reality is that India hit deep inside Pak, PoK launching precision airstrikes across 9 locations in various cities including Bahawalpur, Muzaffarabad, Sialkot among others, neutralising over 100 terrorists and reducing their terror hideouts into rubble.
However, the internet was quick to respond to Shehbaz Sharif's claims made in the Pakistan's National Assembly. A user wrote on X, formerly Twitter, saying the Pakistani PM was high on drugs.
Another X user called out his lie saying Pakistan PM and his country was still being in denial and refusing to accept the reality that their so called state or art air defence systems failed to intercept Indian armed forces strike.
