 "Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif gifts Army Chief Asim Munir a framed image, falsely claiming it depicts Operation Bunyan al-Marsus against India—later exposed as a 2019 Chinese military drill. X")
In a further display of mockery, Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif presented Army Chief Asim Munir with a photo from a 2019 Chinese military exercise, falsely claiming it depicted Operation Bunyan al-Marsus against India.
Netizens criticised Pakistan’s Prime Minister and Army Chief for “photoshop” and tore them apart.
Asim Munir reportedly hosted a high-profile dinner last week, during which he presented the doctored image to political leaders as a token of appreciation for their “foresight” during the four-day armed conflict with India.
Indians mocked the gesture, accusing Pakistan of trying to “win” the battle through Canva and Photoshop. Many shared the original image of the Chinese drill on X, drawing attention to the manipulation.
One user said on X, “Pakistan’s latest masterpiece: Shehbaz Sharif presents a photoshopped painting from a 2019 Chinese drill to Failed Marshal Asim Munir. Guess when you can’t win on the battlefield, you win in Canva.”
Another user asked,“Should we call it a country?”
“Pakistan’s PM gifts Asim Munir a 2019 Chinese drill photo, claiming it’s ‘OP Bunyan Al Marsus’. Pakistan is now using a Chinese Drill Photo to Celebrate Its own Military Operation. They can’t even produce original visuals of their own military operation. Shehbaz Sharif and Asim Munir are fooling their entire Nation. REALLY,” said another user.
