Former Pak Diplomat Admits 300 Terrorists Died In 2019 Balakot Airstrike

Countering Pakistan's long-standing zero-casualty claim, former Pakistani diplomat Agha Hilaly admitted that India had successfully carried out the Balakot airstrike on February 26, 2019 and killed 300 terrorists. The diplomat, who backs Pakistani Army in TV debates, said, "India crossed the international border and did an act of war." In 2019, India carried out the airstrike after Pakistan-based terror outfit JeM had killed 40 CRPF personnel in Pulwama.
