Delhi has not acknowledged the loss of any of its planes and instead said it carried out successful strikes against what it said was "terrorist" infrastructure inside Pakistan.

India launched strikes into Pakistan earlier in the week, kicking off a new round of fighting.Pakistan said it responded with its Chinese-made fighter jets and shot down five Indian aircraft.The Indian aircraft have since been identified as French-made Rafales and Soviet-era fighters.

India’s missile and bomb strikes on targets in Pakistan and Pakistani-controlled Kashmir have spiked tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbors, with Pakistan’s leader calling the attacks an act of war.
