Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi on Saturday took to X and shared a video of External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar claiming to have informed Pakistan military about Operation Sindoor in advance and questioned how many aircraft the Indian Air Force lost.
However, PIB fact check had earlier said that the video was false and fabricated. "Social media posts quoting EAM @DrSJaishankar are implying that India gave advance information to Pakistan about #OperationSindoor," the official government handle had mentioned.
Amid tensions between India and Pakistan, several fake videos and images have emerged on social media, which are being debunked by the Indian government.
India's 'Operation Sindoor', launched on May 7 in retaliation for the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, has marked a significant milestone in the country's fight against terrorism, achieving multiple strategic objectives while sending a global message of resolve, as per sources.
The operation, which targeted nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK), not only avenged the attack but also redefined India's policy against terrorism through a blend of military precision, strategic innovation, and global diplomacy.
India destroyed nine terrorist camps in Pakistan and PoK, targeting key operational centres of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), and Hizbul Mujahideen.
The strikes penetrated deep into Pakistan, including Punjab province and high-risk areas like Bahawalpur, where even the US had hesitated to deploy drones.
The operation showcased India's willingness to intrude into Pakistan's heartland, attacking hundreds of kilometres inside its territory and signalling that neither the Line of Control (LoC) nor Pakistan's interior would be safe for terrorists or their supporters.
Informing Pakistan at the start of our attack was a crime.

EAM has publicly admitted that GOI did it.
