Pakistan is once again making headlines, but not for the reasons it might want. Recent social media posts, amplified by Pakistani sources, claim successful strikes on Indian military facilities in Punjab, including areas around Amritsar, during what they call “Operation Sindoor.” They’ve even shared satellite images as proof.
However, independent satellite verification tells a completely different story. Experts have closely examined these images and compared them with actual satellite data. The verdict? No destruction, no damage, and no signs of any impact at the alleged targets. Indian military facilities mentioned in these posts remain fully intact, completely free of blast marks, structural damage, or any other evidence you’d expect from a military strike.
What makes these claims even more questionable is the timing. The actual conflict occurred seven months ago in May. At that time, Pakistan couldn’t produce any credible satellite imagery to back up its assertions. Suddenly, these new visuals appear, lacking verifiable timestamps, clear sources, or any corroboration. This strongly suggests a “post-facto” attempt to create evidence after the fact, rather than presenting genuine documentation.
This isn’t Pakistan’s first dance with exaggerated claims. During and immediately after the conflict, they pushed narratives of “victory ratios” and vague references to striking India’s “strategic center of gravity”—none of which were ever backed by independent data or gained international credibility.
Analysts who reviewed the recently circulated images point out issues like selective framing and a complete absence of damage indicators such as craters, debris, or scorch marks. Comparing these new images to older ones of the same locations shows absolutely no change.
Ultimately, the facts remain clear. There is no credible evidence to support Pakistan’s claims of strikes on Indian military facilities in Punjab. This latest social media push appears to be a deliberate disinformation campaign, likely aimed at influencing domestic audiences or creating doubt among those less informed. Don’t fall for the recycled propaganda; independent scrutiny confirms these claims are baseless.
