“NO EVIDENCE, JUST POSTS” : PAK Defence Minister MOCKED After No Proof On Jet Kill CNN Interview [Video]

“NO EVIDENCE, JUST POSTS” : PAK Defence Minister MOCKED After No Proof On Jet Kill CNN Interview

Pakistan’s defense minister Khawaja Asif stunned viewers during a CNN interview by admitting that Islamabad’s claim of shooting down five Indian jets—including Rafales—was based entirely on Indian social media posts. He provided no military confirmation, stating, “the debris is on their side.” India had earlier launched a retaliatory airstrike on terror camps across Pakistan and PoK. Fact-checkers exposed Pakistan’s viral jet debris photos as old and unrelated. Asif warned of potential full-scale war, while indirectly acknowledging Indian strike casualties. #Pakistan #India #AirStrikes #Rafale #KhawajaAsif #CNNInterview #JetDownClaim #FakeNews #PahalgamAttack #OperationSindoor #IndianAirForce #PakistanAirForce #DefenseNews #IndiaVsPakistan #SocialMediaIntel #MilitaryIntel #WarFooting #PoKStrikes #JetDebrisHoax #MIG21Crash #FactCheck #PIBFactCheck #PakistanPropaganda #TerrorBaseStrikes #SouthAsiaConflict #BilateralTensions #PakMinisterSlip #BreakingNews #IndiaStrikesBack #AsifCNN Also Read Proof From Above: Satellite Pics Show Extent of Terror Site Damage in Operation Sindoor - Before & After Pics :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/proof-from-above-satellite-pics-show-extent-of-terror-site-damage-in-operation-sindoor-see-before-4147141.html?ref=DMDesc 'Pakistan Shot Down 5 Indian Jets' Claims Defence Minister Asif In CNN Interview, Becomes Butt Of A Joke :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-shot-down-5-indian-jets-claims-defence-minister-asif-on-cnn-interview-becomes-butt-of-a-4146991.html?ref=DMDesc Post-Strike Panic or Calculated Crime?

When Iran STRUCK Pakistan Over Sheltering Terror, Now India’s ‘Op Sindoor’ Follows The SAME Path [Video]

When Iran STRUCK Pakistan Over Sheltering Terror, Now India’s ‘Op Sindoor’ Follows The SAME Path

In January 2024, Iran shocked the region by striking Pakistan’s Balochistan, targeting Jaish ul-Adl militants it blamed for a deadly attack. The drone strike killed two children, sparking outrage and a diplomatic fallout. Days later, Pakistan retaliated with strikes in Iran. Fast forward to 2025, India launched “Operation Sindoor” after the Kashmir terror attack, mirroring Iran’s justification. Both cases reflect a new regional doctrine: hit back hard, even across borders—leaving Pakistan increasingly isolated as its neighbors take terrorism into their own hands. #IranPakistan #OperationSindoor #IndiaStrikes #PakistanRetaliation #JaishUlAdl #IranDroneStrike #CrossBorderTensions #IndiaIran #KashmirAttack #PahalgamMassacre #Balochistan #IranNews #IndiaNews #PakistanNews #RegionalSecurity #SouthAsiaCrisis #DroneStrike #Terrorism #MilitaryStrike #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #BorderClashes #PakistanIranTensions #IndiaPakistanConflict #BalochMilitants #IranRetaliation #Islamabad #Tehran #Modi #TerrorSafeHavens Also Read Pakistan Stock Market Crashes By 7% Amid Tensions With India :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-stock-market-crashes-by-7-amid-tensions-with-india-4147525.html?ref=DMDesc Pakistan: Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium Destroyed, PSL Match Shifted To Karachi :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistan-rawalpindi-cricket-stadium-destroyed-psl-match-canceled-4147333.html?ref=DMDesc Proof From Above: Satellite Pics Show Extent of Terror Site Damage in Operation Sindoor - Before-After Photos :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/proof-from-above-satellite-pics-show-extent-of-terror-site-damage-in-operation-sindoor-see-before-4147141.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.124~HT.408~
