An old story goes — a hungry man killed another hungry man, and both died. (After a bit of editing, here’s a modern version):
India and Pakistan are both making big claims.
Pakistan says it destroyed six Indian aircraft, including three Rafale jets, within a few hours, as well as a brigade headquarters and more.
India says it successfully hit nine targets, achieved all objectives, eliminated Hafiz Saeed, and claims “justice has been served.”One thing is certain: India struck 150 kilometers deep into Pakistan and hit its target.
Now Pakistan must prove how deep it struck in return — this has become a challenge.But if it turns out that India really lost six jets in just a few hours, Pakistan will declare victory and appeal to the world to stop the war.
India and France would be deeply embarrassed and likely to respond more aggressively.
On the other hand, if the Pakistani military’s claim of downing six jets turns out to be false, General Asim Munir’s credibility will be destroyed, and he might not even be able to show his face — he might have no choice but to release Imran Khan and step aside.
It’s a high-stakes gamble the military has taken — or a very bold claim indeed.

He stated that the same scenario played out today, resulting in a major market drop.

Reports from Pakistani media outlets, including Dunya News and ARY News, claim that the Indian Army raised a white flag at the Chora Complex along the Line of Control (LoC) following Pakistan’s retaliatory strikes. These reports suggest that the white flag was a symbol of surrender after significant losses, including the downing of multiple Indian fighter jets. 
However, Indian sources and independent fact-checkers have not confirmed these claims. An article from The Week describes Pakistan’s assertions as part of a “bizarre misinformation campaign,” indicating that there is no official acknowledgment from India regarding the hoisting of a white flag or any form of surrender. 
Given the conflicting narratives, it is essential to approach these reports with caution. The situation remains fluid, and independent verification is necessary to ascertain the accuracy of these claims.
For visual context, here is a video report related to the incident:

Indian Foreign Secretary Says Strikes in Pakistan Aimed at Preventing Further Attacks
Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri stated that India’s recent military action against Pakistan was “measured” and not intended to escalate tensions between the two countries.
In a press briefing following India’s strikes on various locations in Pakistan on Tuesday night, Misri explained that Indian intelligence had received credible information about potential future attacks, prompting pre-emptive action to prevent them.
He said the Indian military targeted “terrorist hideouts” in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir in retaliation for cross-border attacks.
The Foreign Secretary also blamed Pakistan and Pakistan-trained militants for the recent Pahalgam attack, claiming investigations revealed clear links between the attackers and Pakistan.
He specifically accused the banned militant group The Resistance Front (TRF) of orchestrating the attack. The Indian government considers TRF a proxy of the banned organization Lashkar-e-Taiba. Although a social media post initially claimed TRF was behind the attack, the group later denied involvement.
Misri described the Pahalgam incident as “brutal,” saying it aimed to destabilize the improving situation in Jammu and Kashmir.
Pakistan, however, has denied any involvement in the Pahalgam attack.
