Pakistan achieved “military success over India” during the May conflict, according to a report submitted to the United States Congress, which also acknowledged that Islamabad downed Indian jets, including French-made Rafale fighters, using Chinese-supplied weapons.
The conflict was instigated by India after launching strikes inside Pakistan following a deadly attack that killed 26 people in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam town.
The US-China Economic and Security Review Commission report — reviewing US-China security and foreign affairs — highlighted the deepening defence cooperation between Islamabad and Beijing, stating 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.
