 "India jammed China-made Pakistan’s air defences during Operation Sindoor: Report")
The Indian Air Force (IAF) bypassed Pakistan’s Chinese-made air defence systems by jamming them while conducting precision strikes on terror and military targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoJK) from 7 to 10 May under Operation Sindoor , the government said on Wednesday.
“The IAF bypassed and jammed Pakistan’s Chinese-supplied AD systems, completing the mission in just 23 minutes and demonstrating India’s technological edge,” the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting said.
“All strikes were executed without the loss of Indian assets, underscoring the effectiveness of our surveillance, planning, and delivery systems. The use of modern indigenous technology, from long-range drones to guided munitions, made these strikes highly effective and politically calibrated,” the statement from I&B ministry read further.
Jamming refers to disrupting or confusing enemy radar and communications.
The disclosure that the Air Force had crippled Pakistan’s air defences comes after a ceasefire agreement reached after Pakistan approached India, bringing an end to four days of heavy and fierce battle on air and along the Line of Control (LoC).
Operation Sindoor and rising tensions
Indian forces launched precision strikes on terror hubs in Pakistan in the early hours of 8 May, eliminating top leaders of several terror groups, including Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba. The military strikes targeted nine locations across Pakistan and PoK, including key Lashkar headquarters in Bahawalpur and Jaish-e-Mohammed facilities in Muridke.
This escalation heightened tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbours, with a rattled Pakistan attempting multiple missile and drone attacks. All such attempts were successfully foiled by Indian forces.
India’s retaliation to Pakistan
Pakistan’s provocations forced India to respond strongly. The Indian Air Force targeted and destroyed key Pakistani military assets, including airbases and radar sites, effectively bypassing advanced Chinese-supplied defence systems deployed by Islamabad.
No radio active leaks from Pak facility: IAEA
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on Wednesday said there was no radiation leak from any nuclear facility in Pakistan, The Times of India reported.
This statement dismissed reports claiming that Indian missiles had hit Kirana Hills in Pakistan’s Sargodha during Operation Sindoor, causing a radioactive leak.
The clarification came after rumours on social media and foreign media reports suggested that a Pakistani nuclear stockpile was hit during the strikes.
