Pakistan's Defence Minister rejects India's claim:
-
NEW DELHI, August 10: Pakistan's Defence Minister Khawaja Asif on Saturday flatly denied that any of his country's military aircraft had been hit or destroyed by Indian armed forces during Operation Sindoor. He was countering a detailed disclosure earlier in the day by Indian Air Force (IAF) Chief Air Chief Marshal Amar Preet Singh.
"Not a single Pakistani aircraft was hit or destroyed by (the) Indian (side)," Asif wrote on social media, adding that for three months "no such claims were voiced" while Pakistan had, in the immediate aftermath, presented "detailed technical briefings to the international media".
