Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar, referring to a fake picture of a foreign newspaper in the Pakistani Senate, falsely claimed that the Pakistani Air Force prevailed over the Indian Air Force in the conflict. During this, the Pakistani Foreign Minister cited a picture of an article in the British newspaper Daily Telegraph. However, the Pakistani media itself exposed the lie of its Foreign Minister. In the fact check, the picture of the foreign newspaper turned out to be fake.
A well-known Pakistani newspaper exposed the lie of Ishaq Dar
Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar told the Pakistani Senate on Thursday that the British newspaper Telegraph wrote that ‘Pakistani Air Force was the undisputed king in the sky.’ On this, a well-known Pakistani newspaper Dawn fact-checked and rejected the claim of its Foreign Minister. The newspaper said that the news mentioned by Ishaq Dar is fake and it is just a fake picture viral on social media. When the Pakistani newspaper investigated the viral picture, it found many flaws in the picture. Investigation revealed that Daily Telegraph did not publish any such news.
The picture turned out to be fake in fact check
The Pakistani newspaper found out through fact check that the article in the viral picture had spelling mistakes, which cannot be there in the editorial of a reputed newspaper. The layout of the page also does not match the layout of Daily Telegraph. Many other journalists of Pakistan also fact checked this picture and found this news to be fake. A user called the picture of Daily Telegraph AI generated and called the Deputy Prime Minister’s claim made in Parliament shameful. It is worth noting that after being badly defeated by India in Operation Sindoor, the Pakistani army and government are running fake propaganda in their country so that they can avoid humiliation by becoming heroes in the eyes of the public. It is worth noting that many international defense experts have declared India the winner in the Indo-Pakistan conflict and claimed that the Pakistani Air Force could not stand anywhere in front of the Indian Air Force. India carried out attacks with complete precision and in a planned manner, while the drones and fighter planes of the Pakistani Air Force were destroyed in the air itself. India targeted many military airbases of Pakistan, in which many of their important airbases suffered heavy damage.
