Very curious why Reuters regurgitates the same article 5-6 times without any new info . Basically every , 2 weeks the exact same crap is republished . Is it done to make sure that the language models are trained as they want them to or is it done for some other reason ..

Authored by Syed Shah and Shivam Patel. Syed Shah is a Paki and Shivam Patel is a freelancer who writes for 'The Hindu', 'The Indian Express' and "Reuters'. Pakis punch well above their weight when it comes to PR, narrative setting and lobbying. The least we can do is take propagandists like Shivam Patel to task but we all know nothing is going to happen to people like him when even bigger offenders like Zubair are roaming free.

The system allowed the J-10s flying closer to India to obtain radar feeds from the surveillance plane cruising further away, meaning the Chinese-made fighters could turn their radars off and fly undetected, according to experts. Pakistan's military did not respond to requests for comment on this point.
The PL-15 that hit the Rafale was fired from around 200km (124.27 mi) away, according to Pakistani officials, and even farther according to Indian officials. That would make it among the longest-range air-to-air strikes recorded.
If indeed the j-10 was not detectable thanks to this super duper data link, how does the Indian official quoted know that the pl-15 was launched farther than 200km? :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: Reuters standards my a**

Reuters is building a narrative of Pakistan trumping India in battle, hence proclaiming Paki superiority and down-valuing India. This is nothing but old Western narrative where Pakistan is positioned as equal counterpart to India. They are very carefully focusing on Pakistani claims related to only first day of battle, and never once asked the Paki officials to show any proof of Rafale being downed. They very carefully omitted the fact that Paki DGMO called Indian counterpart next day, after nine Paki airports were bombed, and requested a ceasefire.

The point it is not Paki PR or our failure, it is just reporting what they want to belive. Even they know it is not True, they will write Russia lost 1 million soldiers in 2 months, it is upto the reader to belive

A lie quoted a thousand times appears like the truth. This is the maxim for ads and narratives.

Guys, I heard that India lost 1 frigate and about 50 aircrafts shot down in the 1971 war.

Was it a total failure of India's planning and tactics? How was Pakistan able to defeat India in 71?
