Photo-AI generated
Immediately after the military conflict between India and Pakistan in May, China had launched a fake campaign through fake social media accounts. This has been revealed in an American report.
The US-China Economic and Security Review Commission has said in its annual report that China took advantage of the India-Pakistan conflict and tried to show the merits of its weapons.
According to the report, China ran fake social media accounts to stop the sale of France’s Rafale fighter jets and to promote its J-35 fighter planes.
Through these accounts, fake pictures created by AI were spread, which claimed that the Indian Rafale was shot down by Chinese weapons and these were pictures of its ‘wreckage’.
Pakistan claimed to have shot down 3 Rafales
During the conflict with India, Pakistan claimed that its air force shot down five Indian aircraft during the fight, including three Rafales.
French officials say that due to this, questions were being raised on the capability of Rafale. India later admitted the loss of the aircraft, but did not say how many fighter planes were lost.
After this, French Air Force General Jerome Belanger had said that he had seen evidence of damage to only three Indian aircraft – one Rafale, one Russian-made Sukhoi and one Mirage 2000. The Mirage 2000 is the last generation French jet. According to the media, this was the first time that Rafale was damaged in war.
CDS had accepted the downing of some Indian aircraft
Chief of Defense Staff (CDS) Anil Chauhan spoke on claims of downing of Indian fighter jet in clash with Pakistan during the Shangri-La Dialogue event in Singapore on May 31. He said these things in an interview given to Bloomberg.
He had said that the real issue is not how many planes fell, but why they fell and what we learned from them. India recognized its mistakes, quickly corrected them and within two days again responded effectively by targeting enemy positions at long range.
CDS Chauhan said that Pakistan’s claim that it shot down 6 Indian jets is absolutely wrong. What matters is not the count, but what we learned and how we improved. This conflict never led to the use of nuclear weapons, which is a matter of relief. Read the full news…
