‘Fake news, old images’: PIB fact-checks claims that Pakistan downed India’s Rafael aircraft

Following India's "Operation Sindoor" strikes on terror camps in Pakistan, Pakistani media and social media accounts spread misinformation claiming retaliatory attacks on Indian targets, including the Srinagar airbase. The Press Information Bureau (PIB) of India debunked these claims, stating that videos and images circulating were old, unrelated incidents. One video showed sectarian clashes in Pakistan in 2024, while a photo depicted a 2024 IAF MiG-29 crash in Rajasthan. The PIB urged reliance on official Indian sources for accurate information.
