US EditionUS Panel Makes Big Claims on Pakistan's ‘Military Success’ over India in May, Calls Pahalgam 'Insurgent' Attack
The US-China Economic and Security Review Commission says Pakistan's May 2025 operation was retaliation for the Pahalgam attack and China ran a disinformation campaign targeting global defense markets.
- The US-China Economic and Security Review Commission says Pakistan `gained the upper hand` in a four-day clash in May 2025, a finding in a USCC document submitted to the US Congress.
- After the 22 April Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 civilians, India launched Operation Sindoor on 7 May with precision strikes on terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
- USCC documents describe a campaign in which Beijing used fabricated social-media accounts and AI-generated images to discredit France's Rafale aircraft and promote China's J-35 fighter jets in global defence markets.
- New Delhi rejects the USCC characterisation, saying Operation Sindoor demonstrated clear military superiority, and Prime Minister Narendra Modi has repeatedly said `India brought Pakistan 'to its knees within a few hours'`.
- While stopping short of calling it a proxy war, the USCC says Beijing opportunistically used the confrontation to test and advertise Chinese weapons, aligning with China's defence-industry ambitions.
