There were reports that India has gunned down two Pakistan's JF-17 fighter aircraft. The claim was attributed to DGISPR. Earlier, a video showed Pakistan acknowledging the loss of two JF-17 fighters. It was widely shared on social media by prominent Indian accounts. It turned out to be an AI-generated video. India has also successfully destroyed Pak's F-16 fighter jet. This comes amid the ongoing 'Operation Sindoor' by Indian armed forces - in response to the Pahalgam tragedy which claimed 26 lives. In one of the most significant military actions launched by India, nine terror camps operating in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir (PoK) were destroyed. Fact Check: Some Indian users claim Pakistan Army admitted they lost "two JF-17 jets" with this video. This video is AI-generated, fabricated. Pakistan's Army has no such statement. pic.twitter.com/FLcwhqyBOs — Clash Report (@clashreport) May 8, 2025 Meanwhile, Jammu has observed a total blackout amid escalations with Pakistan. A total blackout has also been observed at Vaishno Devi Temple - a prominent Hindu pilgrimage site. Operation Sindoor After the successful execution of Operation Sindoor, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said during a press briefing that Pahalgam terror attack was "original escalation" by Pakistan and that India merely responded in "controlled, precise, measured, considered and non-escalatory" manner. "Pakistan escalated on April 22, we are only responding to escalation. If further escalation, the response will be in the appropriate domain," Misri said. Meanwhile, on the night of May 7, Pakistan attempted to engage a number of military targets in Northern and Western India including Awantipura, Srinagar, Jammu, Pathankot, Amritsar, Kapurthala, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Adampur, Bhatinda, Chandigarh, Nal, Phalodi, Uttarlai, and Bhuj, using drones and missiles - a move successfully foiled by the Indian armed forces.
