Asim Munir fires back: Pakistan needed no China or Turkey, says India’s ‘axis’ claim is fiction, 'shoddy camp politics'

Operation Sindoor tore open an old wound between India and Pakistan, but this time, Beijing and Ankara found themselves dragged in too. Pakistans Army Chief Asim Munir insists his forces stood alone, rejecting Indian claims of Chinese eyes in the sky and Turkish drones overhead. India holds its ground, saying the nexus is real. Between allegations, denials and a fragile ceasefire, this skirmish shows how the regions fault lines remain raw and ready to flare.
