The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) DG responded by saying, “Repetitions don’t make truth of a lie.”“Despite claiming possession of evidence on shooting F16, IAF still short of presenting it,” Maj Gen Ghafoor said on Twitter. No Pakistani F16 was hit by Indian airforce.”ISPR added that Pakistan Air Force (PAF) strikes across the Line of Control (LoC) were carried out by JF-17 from within Pakistan airspace. Whether it was F16 or JF17 which shot down 2 Indian aircrafts is immaterial,” added the statement. India can assume any type of their choice even F-16.”The ISPR stressed that Pakistan retained the right to use anything and everything in its legitimate self-defence. Last month, Maj Gen Ghafoor, in an interview with international media, categorically rejected Indian claims that Pakistan used US-made F-16 to down Indian aircraft on February 27.
