- Honores includes Rafale Pilots, S-400 operators and key base staff.
- Families reportedly did not push to share photos or tribute online.
- Move sparks criticism after official denial of military losses.
After repeatingly refusing any damage, the Indian military has now indirectly recognized the death of several staff, including Rafale -Jagerfly Pilots, by announcing military honors for them, security sources told Pakinomist News On Sunday.
The move, which is allegedly taken under internal pressure, has lifted the lid of what was previously kept under wrapping: India suffered large losses during Operation Sindoor.
According to security sources, the Indian armed forces were given a big hit in the operation, especially along the control line (LOC), where over 250 fatalities were reported.
Despite this, the Indian government and military publicly avoided recognizing the extent of damage until the announcement of honors brought the losses to the open.
Among those who are to be awarded post -dropping are four Indian Air Force Pilots, three of which flew Rafale Jets. The list also includes five S-400 Air Defense System operators that were killed at Adampur Airbase, security officials say.
Nine more staff who lost their lives on the out -of -emergency airborn, including members of its air defense unit, are also named after honors.
In addition, two soldiers from Rajouri Aviation Base and four others from Uri Supply Depot, including its officers, are allegedly.
Security sources claim that the families of the deceased have been asked not to share photos or tribute on social media as authorities continue the efforts to keep the losses out of the public eye.
Critics now ask: If there were no losses that the Indian government has long claimed, why are these honors awarded now?
India has previously denied any major damage or loss of life during incidents in key installations such as pathankot and out -of -stumbling.
However, international media reports suggest that effective strikes from Pakistan forced India to accept a ceasefire – a step that followed significant military setbacks.
Pakistan launched a large-scale Military Action Operation Bunyan-Um-Marsoos-and targeted several Indian military targets across multiple regions in response to New Delhi’s several unprovoked missile attacks on its earth.
Pakistan lowered six IAF fighters, including three rafale, and dozens of drones. After at least 87 hours, the war between the two nuclear armed nations ended on May 10 with a ceasefire agreement broken by the United States.
According to ISPR, a total of 53 individuals, including 13 employees of the armed forces and 40 civilians, were martyrated in Indian strikes during recent military confrontation.
