A report presented to the United States Congress has acknowledged Pakistan’s “military success over India” in the four-day war in May this year, stating that Pakistan used Chinese-made weapons to down French Rafale fighters.
The conflict was instigated by India after launching strikes inside Pakistan following a deadly attack that killed 26 people in the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam town.
The Congress report highlighted the deepening defence cooperation between Pakistan and China, noting that Pakistan employed advanced Chinese weaponry to enhance its military edge over India.
This is a developing story and is being updated with further details.
