Two Indian Air Force (IAF) aircraft were shot down on Wednesday by the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) and Indian targets across the Line of Control (LoC) were struck by Pakistani fighter jets from within friendly airspace as the country’s armed forces struck back after unprovoked Indian aggression a day earlier.

The military spokesperson, who had earlier confirmed the capture of an Indian pilot, said that Pakistani forces have now captured two IAF pilots after their jets were shot down in air combat by PAF aircraft.
