Pakistan shatters India’s pride as The Daily Telegraph acknowledges PAF supremacy
LONDON (Dunya News) – Pakistan has dealt a humiliating blow to Indian military pride, shooting down Rafale fighters jets in a move described by The Telegraph as a regional game-changer and a stunning surprise for global defense analysts.
According to the UK-based newspaper, Pakistan’s use of unseen and silent technology left Indian Rafael pilots clueless about the threat until it was too late.
The report states that Pakistan has not only asserted aerial superiority but has also shaken India’s confidence in its much-hyped French aircraft.
The Telegraph noted that while India continued to stock up on powerful jets after the Balakot episode, Pakistan quietly acquired advanced stealth capabilities with Chinese support.
The downing of the Rafales, the report said, marks a turning point in South Asian air warfare dynamics and highlights Pakistan’s evolving edge in strategic military technology.
It may be recalled that Pakistan's Information Minister Attaullah Tarar had said in a media brief on Wednesday morning that Indian jets were shot down in Akhoor, Ambala, Barnala and in Jammu.
The Telegraph reported that India denied any loss of its aircraft. But the reports of jet crashes were soon corroborated from the ground. Local government sources told Reuters that three Indian jets had indeed crashed inside Indian-controlled Kashmir.
