Pakistan Says 5 Indian Planes Shot Down, Soldiers Captured
Wednesday, 7 May 2025 06:51 WIB | ECONOMY |ECONOMIC

Pakistan says it has shot down five Indian planes and captured Indian soldiers in retaliation for an Indian military strike early Wednesday.

The shooting down of the jets was not a "hostile act" and Pakistan was defending its territory, Defense Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif said in an interview with Bloomberg TV on Wednesday.

India's Foreign Ministry did not immediately respond to a request for information sent outside Indian business hours.

The Indian government has previously said it has carried out targeted military strikes against Pakistan, an expected move after it vowed to retaliate for last month's militant attack in Kashmir that killed 26 people. (Newsmaker23)
