‘Pakistan’s claim of destroying India’s S-400 missile systems false’
Pakistan’s claim that its hypersonic missiles fired from JF-17 fighter jets destroyed India’s S-400 air defence system in Adampur is “false”, an Indian military official said on Saturday.
Pakistan’s state-run PTV earlier reported that Pakistan Air Force’s hypersonic missiles destroyed the S-400 system in Adampur.
China’s Xinhua news agency also said Pakistan JF-17 Thunder jet destroyed India’s S-400 air defense system in India’s Punjab, according to Chinese news outlet Global Times.
These reports are false, the spokesperson of the Indian Air Force said.
