It has been almost a month since India hitting back at Pakistan (or so called Indo-Pak war) concluded in 3 days and new details continue to come out.
There was LOT of misinformation during the war and here is a article on misinformation during the war.

- Despite India complaining to Trump (for him taking credit), he repeated it. Obviously, India's complaint is more focused for the internal damage control as there is strong resentment in the country that Pakistan continue to start aggression and India goes beat the hell of Pakistan even gets the territory and West rescues them calling it 'Indo-Pak war' to bolster their "higher" position. It is a repeating saga.
- Ex. During 1965 War, ( Pakistani attempt to take advantage of India's loss to China in 1963) India went as for as Lahore and gave it back to Pakistan as a part of Tashkent accord. CIA assassinated (Robert Crowley) Indian Prime minister Lal Bahadur Sastri ( supposedly to prevent India making nuclear bomb - which they made few years later) during the proceedings. i.e. KGB sold Indian PM Sastry to CIA, rumored to make Indira Gandhi PM. Given the current trend of digging out Nehru-Gandhi clan's controversies and making successful movies (ex: Tashkent Files movie), its on public's mind and they can blame Modi for folding it.
- India went on diplomatic missions across the world to disrupt backroom narrations. Indian opposition leader of Nehru-Gandhi dynasty, Rahul Gandhi accused Modi of folding to Trump. The leader of India's delegation Shashi Tharoor (of his own party) called it 'small matter' to diffuse the tricky situation as his focus is on trade.
- Despite India complaining, Trump gave face saving option for mainly Pakistan and to India too as it doesn't want expanded war like in Russia-Ukraine.
- Though West publicized it as a "war of Nuclear nations" during the war, every body forgot about the incident for PR reasons - Rafael shot down, Chinese radars taken down, some US assets rumored to have been attacked. Probably one Su-27 might have been shot down and it was not big deal as Indians are used to aged Russian planes falling down with casualties. In any case S-400 integrated into other defense systems worked very well. In this War, India used its own satellites that completely bypassed the dependency on other nations.
- India hit Pakistan's supposed Nuclear control center at Noor Khan base (10 km from its capital) as a warning. Pakistan engaged Trump and Trump asked them to reach out to India, but gave a heads up to India and claimed himself as a 'savior' which gave Pakistan a "face saving" look. He also promised some money too.
- It became obvious that Trump's family company has links to Pakistani Govt. digital currency investments (20% of surplus electricity) . see here.
- Now, It came to light that the entire Noor Khan base is managed by US. In fact, even Pakistani army officers needs permission to enter. According to one Pakistani security expert Imtiaz Gul, They have no access to what is the cargo comes and goes from Noor Khan base and if some body( pak. army) dare asks about the cargo, they were shown a gun. Obvious question is what is in the cargo?
