In the wake of escalating tensions, Pakistan has come under scrutiny for disseminating manipulated images in an attempt to substantiate claims of successful strikes on Indian military infrastructure. Experts and independent analysts have flagged several instances where visuals shared by Pakistani sources appear doctored or misrepresented.


"A doctored, manipulated image of Jammu Airport is being circulated to falsely imply damage on site, however recent visuals confirm no such destruction," Symon stated, clarifying that the image does not reflect the current state of the site.


Even official imagery released by Pakistan during it's pressure today own show possible damage situated away from the airstrip, undermining the assertion of a successful precision strike.

Furthermore, Pakistan has showcased what it described as "identification/targeting" of India's S-400 air defense system. However, no evidence has been provided to confirm any damage or impact on the site. No aftermath visuals or credible satellite imagery have been presented to validate the claim.

Despite dramatic claims, Pakistan has yet to furnish any convincing visual or satellite evidence to support its narrative of successful military action against Indian targets. T
