'Claim misleading, only part of the statement': PIB Fact Check debunks Pak social media post on Operation Sindoor

The Press Information Bureau's Fact Check division on Thursday debunked a post on Pakistani social media that the US warned PM Narendra Modi that Pakistan would launch a major attack unless certain conditions were accepted and India accepted immediately.

The PIB Fact Check division said that the claim is not only misleading, but only presents a part of his full statement.

"During the interview with Newsweek, EAM @DrSJaishankar said that Prime Minister told US "if Pakistan launched an attack on India, there would be a response from us!" EAM also said, the next morning, following India's massive response, "Mr. Rubio called me up and said the Pakistanis were ready to talk," read the statement from PIB's Fact Check division.

Earlier today, Foreign Minister S Jaishankar said Operation Sindoor conveyed to the world with great clarity that India will act against terrorism, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar said in a statement in line with the U.N. Security Council calling for those responsible for the Pahalgam attacks to be brought to justice.
