BAGH (AZAD JAMMU KASHMIR): Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has went on to say that the armed forces dealt India a resounding blow in the war, and that a report by the US Congress has confirmed Pakistan’s victory.
Addressing a ceremony in Bagh, Azad Kashmir, the premier revealed the performance of Pakistan’s ‘falcons’ in the war forced the enemy to fall to its knees. He added that the US President has also repeatedly mentioned the downing of seven Indian aircraft.
He said his government is working day and night on the economic front and expressed hope that ‘a day will come when we will finally be free from debt’.
The US–China Economic and Security Review Commission of the US Congress acknowledged in its report that India suffered a severe defeat in the Pakistan–India war that took place in May. According to the report, Chinese weapons played a key role in Pakistan’s victory.
The report stated that Pakistan, with the help of Chinese weaponry, shot down French-made Rafale fighter jets. Following Pakistan’s success, Indonesia cancelled its planned purchase of Rafale jets, and the aircraft’s global reputation also suffered.
It should be remembered that the Pakistan–India clash in May began after an attack on tourists in occupied Kashmir. The four-day-long confrontation saw both countries using fighter jets, missiles, artillery, and drones. During the conflict, Pakistan shot down six Indian fighter aircraft.
Yesterday, a US congressional commission concluded that Pakistan achieved military success over India during the four-day conflict in May, marking the most significant escalation between the nuclear neighbours in more than 25 years.
The report highlighted China’s decisive role – both as Pakistan’s primary weapons supplier and as an actor that leveraged the conflict to test its newest military systems.
The annual report submitted to Congress, stated that Pakistan “won a victory” in the May 7–10 clashes and noted that Pakistan relied heavily on Chinese weaponry and intelligence support during the fighting, which included missile strikes, drone attacks, and artillery exchanges.
The commission said the Indian Army accused China of providing ‘live inputs’ on 109 Indian military positions, though both Pakistan and China denied such claims.
