The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said that China’s support to Pakistan during ‘Operation Sindoor’ reflects a situation the world is closely observing, particularly regarding countries that defend terrorism and the alliances they choose. It added that such actions could have implications for their global reputation. During the MEA press briefing on Tuesday, reports were cited indicating that China had acknowledged providing technical assistance to Pakistan during the military conflict in May 2025. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said the ministry had taken note of these reports confirming the development. Op Sindoor was a well-planned action The Ministry of External Affairs said that India attacks terrorists for its security. After the terrorist attacks in Pahalgam, India gave a strong response through ‘Operation Sindoor’. This was a well-planned action, whose objective was to completely destroy terrorist bases operating with Pakistan’s help. Recently on May 7, India celebrated the first anniversary of the operation. Operation Sindoor was launched in response to the terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22, 2025, in which 26 Indian citizens were killed. Chinese engineer admitted that the aircraft were technically prepared China on Saturday publicly admitted for the first time that it had helped Pakistan during Operation Sindoor. According to a South China Morning Post report, in an interview broadcast on Chinese state media CCTV, Zhang Heng, an engineer at Chengdu Aircraft Design and Research Institute, said that his team was providing technical assistance in Pakistan. He explained that his job was to keep fighter aircraft and their associated systems completely ready for war. According to the report, the Pakistan Air Force uses Chinese-made J-10CE fighter aircraft. These aircraft are manufactured by a subsidiary company of AVIC. Lieutenant General Rahul Singh, Deputy Chief of Army Staff of the Indian Army, had claimed in July 2025 that China provided significant assistance to Pakistan during Operation Sindoor. Pakistan had launched 900 drones from Gujarat to Kashmir On the completion of one year of Operation Sindoor, several important revelations have been made in the review by Indian military forces. The trio of Pakistan, China and Turkey had launched 900 drones on the night of May 7 and 8. Swarm drones were launched within a few hours from the LOC in Kashmir to the international border in Gujarat. The Indian Air Force’s Air Command and Control System destroyed Pakistan’s swarm drones. Pakistan could not succeed in causing damage to even a single important military base of India. Pakistan had copied the swarm drone attack used in the Ukraine-Russia war. It should be noted that this strategy is often adopted by NATO countries in advanced warfare. Pakistan had made a plan with 4 intentions Harassing Indian Air Defense with Cheap Drones: The aim was to exhaust India’s air defense capability by shooting down cheap drones. According to new assessments, Turkiye fully contributed to providing cheap drones to Pakistan. Increasing India’s war expenses with drone attacks: Pakistan, China, and Turkiye were planning to impose a very expensive economic war on India through cheap aerial attacks. The goal was to force India to use missiles costing ₹2.5 crore or more for self-defense by launching drones worth 30 to 50 thousand rupees. Infiltrating Radar and Other Reconnaissance Networks: The aim was to force India’s radar and other surveillance networks to be exposed. Pakistan was preparing for network warfare instead of just responding to Indian actions. For this, China had also given its surveillance system, Beidou, to Pakistan. Exposing Flaws in Aerial Surveillance: The aim was to expose gaps and personnel deficiencies in Indian aerial surveillance and defense. However, the success of the Indian Air Force’s Air Command and Control System (IACCS) has also come to light. According to the military review, IACCS proved the capability of network-centric warfare. Indian Army says,‘100+ Pakistani Soldiers Killed in Operation Sindoor’, On the first anniversary of Operation Sindoor, the Indian Army said on Thursday that Operation Sindoor sent a clear message that no terrorist hideout in Pakistan is safe. This campaign was not the end, but the beginning. India will continue to fight against terrorism. In a press conference in Jaipur on Thursday, the Army stated that during Operation Sindoor, more than 100 Pakistani soldiers and more than 100 terrorists in terrorist camps were killed.
