Media: Indian army surrenders after heavy losses in clashes along Line of Control
In a dramatic shift along the Line of Control (LoC), the Indian army reportedly raised a white flag at the Chora complex, signalling its surrender after taking heavy losses from the Pakistani military’s counteroffensive.
As reported by Samaa.tv, high-level security sources disclosed that Pakistani forces launched a powerful retaliation campaign, inflicting significant damage on several Indian military posts situated along the LoC, per Caliber.Az.
One of the hardest-hit locations was the Chora complex, where Indian forces were eventually forced to raise the white flag, a globally recognised symbol of ceasefire or surrender.
A security spokesperson commented, “Our forces are delivering a strong response to every provocation from India.”
Previously, Pakistan’s Defence Minister, Khawaja Asif, revealed that the Pakistani military had successfully shot down six Indian targets from the Indian Air Force and destroyed the headquarters of the Indian Army’s 12th Infantry Brigade, which is part of the 9th Division of the 15th Corps.
According to the Pakistani military, enemy aircraft, including three Rafale jets, one MiG-29, and one Su-30, were intercepted and destroyed while attempting to launch strikes on Pakistani territory with remotely controlled munitions from Indian airspace. In addition, a Heron drone was shot down during the operation.
Commenting on the situation, Pakistan’s Minister of Information and Broadcasting, Attaullah Tarar, stated that Pakistan has given a strong and proportionate response to India’s cross-border aggression by targeting only military sites and adhering to the laws of war.
He further explained that the Pakistan Air Force shot down five Indian aircraft, including a drone, and destroyed several Indian military posts along the LoC. “In the darkness of the night, the enemy targeted innocent civilians, including mosques and madrassas,” Tarar said. “But Pakistan’s response was befitting and comprehensive. We did not target any civilians—only the military positions and aircraft involved in the aggression.”
“Even the Indian media showed footage of their crashed aircraft—the truth can no longer be hidden,” he added.
Tarar added that Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif closely monitored the situation throughout the night, receiving regular updates from the military leadership. The prime minister convened a meeting of the National Security Committee (NSC) at 10 a.m. on May 7 to assess the latest developments and determine Pakistan’s next diplomatic and strategic moves.
