Where’s Your Proof, Rahul Gandhi? —Pakistan Finally Admits 500+ Soldiers Killed in Operation Sindoor [Video]

Where’s Your Proof, Rahul Gandhi? —Pakistan Finally Admits 500+ Soldiers Killed in Operation Sindoor

Pakistan has finally admitted the truth—500+ soldiers lost in Operation Sindoor. After years of denying their losses, Islamabad’s gallantry medals to 138 soldiers reveal the scale of the disaster. Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi and the Opposition questioned India’s surgical strikes and Balakot attacks, echoing Pakistan’s denials inside India. This video exposes the stark contrast between past governments and Modi’s India: decisive action, heavy consequences for Pakistan, and zero tolerance for terror. If Pakistan itself admits the losses, can Rahul Gandhi continue questioning India’s victories? Watch as we break down Operation Sindoor, Pakistan’s confession, and the challenge Rahul Gandhi now faces. #OperationSindoor #PakistanAdmitsLosses #RahulGandhi #IndiaStrikes #ModiGovernment #Balakot #SurgicalStrike #IndiaVsPakistan #Geopolitics #IndianArmy #BreakingNews #ProofPolitics Also Read Pakistan’s Admission Of Deaths In Operation Sindoor: Will Rahul Gandhi Question These Numbers Too? :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pakistan-s-admission-of-deaths-in-operation-sindoor-will-rahul-gandhi-question-these-numbers-too-7832753.html?ref=DMDesc ‘Why Only Me?’ Rahul Gandhi Slams Election Commission Over Affidavit Row :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/will-not-let-them-steal-rahul-gandhi-slams-ec-calls-bihar-sir-a-conspiracy-7832471.html?ref=DMDesc CEC Gyanesh Kumar To Rahul Gandhi: Give Allegations Affidavit in 7 Days or Apologise to the Nation :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/cec-gyanesh-kumar-to-rahul-gandhi-prove-allegations-in-7-days-or-apologise-to-the-nation-7832433.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.274~HT.408~ED.194~
