India accepts defeat by 'hoisting white flag': Islamabad
  Bangla Press Desk: Pakistan Information Minister Attaullah Tarar on Wednesday confirmed the Indian military has accepted defeat by hoisting a white flag, a globally recognised sign of surrender, at a key checkpost along the border, DAWN reported. Talking to the media around 7am at the information ministry, Tarar asserted that India had waved a white flag at the Line of Control and “accepted defeat”. The minister said this as footage of a white flag played in the background. “They have been forced to wave a white flag,” Tarar said. PTV News also shared footage of a white flag hoisted seemingly on top of a structure. Tarar echoed the claim on his X account, posting: “First they fled from the investigation, now they fled from the field.”
Earlier, multiple Pakistani media outlets broke the news of India's surrender in the face of strong counterattacks by Islamabad's forces.Though details are still emerging, Pakistan media claims, unlike the Indian ones, have rarely proved unreliable during the latest tensions. "In a dramatic turn of events, the Indian Army raised a white flag at the Chora Complex along the Line of Control, signaling a clear admission of defeat. This move came after Pakistan’s military launched a powerful counterattack in response to India’s late-night aggression. The Pakistani response was swift and decisive, causing major losses to Indian forces," reported Geo TV, Daily Times, and Samaa-News, among others. According to security sources, Pakistan’s armed forces destroyed several Indian check-posts, downed five fighter jets, and targeted the Indian brigade headquarters. The impact of the strikes left Indian troops in disarray, forcing them to surrender and request a halt to the intense fighting. This retreat has been viewed as a humiliating setback for India.
