Washington: US President Donald Trump said that up to five fighter jets were shot down during the recent military flare-up between India and Pakistan, after the Pahalgam incident in Indian occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IOJK).<\/p>\n

According to Kashmir Media Service, Trump’s remarks came during a dinner with Republican US lawmakers at the White House where he further reiterated that tensions between the two countries eased only after a ceasefire was reached in May.<\/p>\n

“In fact, planes were being shot out of the air. Five, five, four or five, but I think five jets were shot down actually,” Trump said while talking about the Pakistan-India hostilities, without elaborating or providing further detail.<\/p>\n

Pakistan had earlier said that it had downed six Indian planes in air-to-air combat.<\/p>\n

India’s Chief of Defence Staff (CDS) General Anil Chauhan said in late May that India switched tactics after suffering losses in the air on the first day of hostilities.<\/p>\n

Trump has repeatedly claimed credit for the ceasefire between India and Pakistan that he announced on social media on May 10 after Washington held talks with both sides.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
