After seven months, Pakistan has accepted the big truth regarding India’s Operation Sindoor. Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar has admitted that India had attacked Noor Khan Air Force Base on the morning of May 10. This is the first time after the four-day long India-Pakistan military confrontation that Pakistan has openly acknowledged the attack. It is believed that this attack was carried out very accurately with BrahMos missile, which caused huge damage to the airbase.

Pakistan admitted- attack on Noor Khan airbase
Ishaq Dar said that on the morning of 10 May, India attacked Noor Khan airbase. He told that after this Pakistan retaliated. Till now Pakistan was not talking clearly about this attack, but after seven months it has been accepted publicly for the first time.

BrahMos’ accurate target, huge damage to the airbase
Dar did not directly name BrahMos, but it is clear from his statement that the Indian attack was very accurate. Experts say that Noor Khan Airbase suffered a lot of damage in this attack, which Pakistan was trying to hide for a long time.

Pakistan did not ask for mediation
Dar also said that during the conflict in May, Pakistan did not seek help from any country for talks with India. However, he claimed that America and Saudi Arabia themselves wanted to talk to India.

America and Saudi Arabia played role
According to Ishaq Dar, at 8:17 am on May 10, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio called him and told him that India is ready to stop the war. Dar said that Pakistan also did not want war. After this, the Foreign Minister of Saudi Arabia contacted him and asked for permission to talk to India. Later, an agreement was reached between the two countries to stop the war.

Claims of shooting down drones and jets, no evidence
Dar claimed that Pakistan intercepted 79 out of 80 Indian drones and seven Indian fighter aircraft were shot down in the aerial conflict on May 7. However, he did not present any evidence in support of these claims.

President Zardari’s statement: ‘Refused to go to the bunker’
Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari told that during Operation Sindoor he was advised to hide in the bunker. He said that he refused to accept this advice. In Zardari’s words, ‘If we have to die, we will die here.’ Leaders do not hide in bunkers.

Praising the army and talking about peace
Zardari said that Pakistan wants peace, but is fully prepared for its security. He praised Army Chief General Asim Munir and called it a ‘right reply’ given to India. He also said that resolution of the Kashmir issue is necessary for lasting peace in the region.

Why did Operation Sindoor start?
India started Operation Sindoor on 7 May. This action was taken in response to the Pahalgam attack, in which 26 civilians were killed. India targeted terrorist hideouts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. After this, there was an intense conflict between the two countries for four days, which ended with the decision to stop the war on May 10.

US President Donald Trump has taken credit for the ceasefire between India and Pakistan many times. He said many times in different forums that I had stopped many wars, including the India-Pakistan war. Although India has always rejected the idea of ​​mediation. Nearly seven months after Operation Sindoor, Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar has finally accepted the truth. He said that Pakistan had not asked anyone for mediation.

Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar is also known for his loudness. Every now and then he makes such statements which not only embarrass the country but also himself. The scale of his military achievements revolves around India only. On Saturday he again gave a similar statement. Patted yourself on the back regarding the India-Pakistan conflict, and also said what you have been targeted for earlier also.

We did not ask anyone for mediation: Ishaq Dar

According to Dawn newspaper, while talking to the media in Islamabad, Ishaq Dar reiterated, ‘We had not asked anyone to mediate.’ This is not the first time that Dar is giving a statement full of dilemma. Ishaq Dar had said in the month of August that Pakistan had suffered so much damage that they gave up arms and gave importance to the ceasefire.

Pakistan demands its own ceasefire: Ishaq Dar

Dar had said, ‘Islamabad never requested the US or any third party to mediate the ceasefire with India during Operation Sindoor. After suffering losses in the Indian attack, Pakistan itself had demanded ceasefire.

What statement did Ishaq Dar give in September?

Subsequently, in September, Dar publicly admitted at an event that India had never agreed to any third party mediation.

Dar revealed that when Pakistan asked US Secretary of State Marco Rubio about Donald Trump’s mediation, Rubio clearly said that India has always said that this is a bilateral issue. Claimed that at 8:17 am on May 10, US Secretary of State Rubio had told him that very soon there would be talks between India and Pakistan in an independent venue, but later on July 25, Rubio said that India had refused any role of a third party, calling it only a bilateral matter.

In his statement on Saturday, he mentioned his conversation with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio. First he said that he did not ask for mediation, then after some time he said, ‘At around 8:17 in the morning, I got a call from USA Secretary Rubio that India is ready for ceasefire, are you ready?’ I said, ‘We never wanted to go to war.’

India had caused huge loss to PAK

After the Pahalgam terrorist attack, Indian security forces had launched Operation Sindoor, in response to which Pakistan started a military conflict and the Indian forces gave a befitting reply. Pakistan suffered a lot during this period. Airbases like Noor Khan, Rahim Yar Khan, Muridke, Bholari and Sargodha were also destroyed. Apart from this, the Airborne Early Warning or Electronic Intelligence platform of Pakistani Air Force was also destroyed by Indian missiles.

Pakistan has agreed to send troops to Gaza under the international peace mission. Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said on Saturday (November 29) that his country is ready to deploy security forces in Gaza, but our troops will not take part in disarming the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas.

This statement of the Pakistani Foreign Minister has come amid intensification of discussion on America’s Gaza Peace Agreement, in which there is a provision for the establishment of International Stabilization Force (ISF) made up of soldiers from Muslim-majority countries. Ishaq Dar said that the Prime Minister has taken the decision to send troops to Gaza after consulting the Field Marshal.

what did ishaq dar say
In a press conference held at Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry, Ishaq Dar said that Pakistan will send troops only under clearly defined orders of the UN Security Council and the Pakistani Army will not play any role in disarming Hamas. Dar stressed that the issue of disarming Hamas was first raised during talks on a two-state solution in Riyadh. Pakistan will not participate in any such efforts. We are not ready for this. This is not our job. Our role is to establish peace.

Indonesia offered 20,000 troops
Dar said that Pakistan’s job is to ensure peace. We are ready to send our forces, but the mandate of the International Stabilization Force for Gaza should be clearly defined. He further said that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has agreed to Pakistan’s participation, but it will depend on the clarity of ISF’s mandate and scope of work. Indonesia has offered 20,000 soldiers for this mission.

UNSC approved the deployment of ISF
The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) last week approved a US resolution supporting Trump’s proposal to end the Gaza conflict. In this, deployment of ISF was also authorized. 13 members, including Pakistan, voted in favor of the resolution, while Russia and China abstained from voting. On the other hand, Hamas rejected this proposal and strongly condemned the proposed ISF.

Pakistan is confused on US President Donald Trump’s ‘Gaza Peace Plan’. Pakistan’s leadership does not understand whether he should support this plan or oppose, if it had not been so, the statements of Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar would not have been different. Ishaq Dar had said on the Gaza plan in Parliament that this is not the one that 8 Muslim countries had stamped together, changes have been made in it. Just 24 hours after Dar’s statement, Shahbaz Sharif’s statement came out, in which he was seen praising this plan.
On Friday (October 3, 2025), Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar rejected the proposal, saying that it is different from the originally presented bend by eight Muslim -dominated countries, but on October 4, 2025, on October 4, 2025, Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif praised the scheme and described it as a commendable step towards peace in Gaza.

Shahbaz expresses gratitude to these leaders including Trump

Shahbaz Sharif posted on X and said, ‘Alhamdolillah, we are so close to the ceasefire, as we were never since the beginning of this massacre on the Palestinians.’ He thanked Trump and Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Türkiye, Jordan, Egypt and Indonesia for efforts to establish peace.

The Pak PM said, ‘The statement issued by Hamas opens a way to ensure ceasefire and peace, which we should not let again be closed. Inshaallah, Pakistan will continue to work closely with all its colleagues and brotherhood countries for permanent peace in Palestine.

Hamas accepted some conditions of the plan

This statement of Shahbaz Sharif came after Hamas accepted a conditional accepting parts of Trump’s 20-Cutrician Peace Scheme, which aims to end the struggle going on for almost two years. Hamas said that he is ready to release the hostage people during the October 7, 2023 attack and hand over power to other Palestinian groups, although some major differences still remain.

What was Trump’s Gaza plan?

Trump’s Gaza plan includes ceasefire and withdrawal of hostage within 72 hours, formation of a Palestinian administration, monitoring of international and Arab peace army, a phased return of Israeli and redevelopment of a ‘new Gaza’. The scheme also proposes a ‘Peace Board’, which will be chaired by Trump and will be in the role of former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair Advisor.

What did Ishaq Dar say on Trump’s statement?

Ishaq Dar told Parliament that Trump’s Gaza Plan is not the one on which Muslim leaders agreed to the meeting held in New York on 22 September. He said, ‘These 20 points are not like us. Changes have been made in them.

According to Dar, the original Muslim proposal demanded the full return of Israel from Gaza and ‘justified peace based on two-state solutions’. He further said that Trump personally assured Muslim leaders that he would stop any occupation of Israel on the west coast.

Pakistan’s Foreign Minister emphasized that Pakistan’s original attitude has still not changed. He will never recognize Israel and will continue to support a Palestinian kingdom situated on the borders before 1967, which will be the capital Jerusalem (Al-Kuds Al Sharif). He also confirmed that the scheme has been said to deploy international peace soldiers in this scheme and Pakistan is considering whether soldiers should be sent or not.

Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar on Friday (October 03, 2025) claimed that many countries have shown interest in signing a defense agreement with Islamabad and suggested that if more countries are involved in the Saudi-Pakistan mutual defense agreement, it would be formed like NATO.

Addressing Parliament on the issue of recently announced Gaza Shanti Yojana by President Donald Trump, Dar also spoke about the officially signed ‘strategic mutual defense agreement’ with Saudi Arabia on 18 September. He said that many countries, Arabia and non-Arab Islamic nations have shown interest in joining the defense agreement between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.

‘Pakistan will lead Islamic world’

Dar said, “Many other countries have shown interest in making a defense agreement with Pakistan and many countries have approached Pakistan during the United Nations General Assembly.” He suggested that if more countries join it, then it will become an alliance like NATO.

The Deputy Prime Minister said that other countries can also be included in this agreement, which will probably be converted into ‘new NATO or eastern NATO’. He expressed confidence that Pakistan would one day lead the Islamic world. He said, ‘Pakistan will lead 57 Islamic countries with the will of God.’

‘Pakistan will try to become economic power’

Dar emphasized that Pakistan is already an atomic and missile power, but now it should also try to become an economic power, which can be achieved only through collective efforts. He said, ‘This is a very important agreement, it was not done without thinking or in a hurry.’

Detailed information about the agreement has not been shared, but a joint statement issued after the signature ceremony states that any attack against any country will be considered an attack against both.

Ishaq Dar said about Pakistani struggle with India

Recalling the four -day struggle with India in May, Dar said that such an attack on Pakistan was considered an attack on Saudi Arabia under the Defense Agreement. The agreement was signed a few days after Israel’s attack on Qatar. The attack on Qatar created a possibility of similar attacks in Arab countries.

Dar made it clear that the 20 points that President Trump made public is not ours. Changes were made in our draft. I have a record of this. He also said that there is no scope for politics in this matter.

Learn its history

External Affairs Minister Dar said that this draft was prepared during the 80th United Nations General Assembly session. During this period, Trump and eight countries Pakistan, Jordan, United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Türkiye, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Egyptian Foreign Minister were included. In this draft, special attention was paid to stopping the immediate ceasefire, human aid and the ongoing violence in Gaza.

Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif initially welcomed the scheme and reiterated support for two state solutions. But this support was severely criticized in Pakistan. Many people described it as “surrender” and questioned not being a clear roadmap for the Palestinian state.

‘There is a difference between Pakistan and American draft’

External Affairs Minister Dar said that Pakistan’s draft and American proposals are different in many cases. Pakistan wanted the Israeli army to follow Gaza completely back, while the US plan suggested a phased return with the release of the hostages. Dar said, “The Committee of President Trump had an open conversation on our demands. He made a 20-point proposal to us. In the next 24 hours, eight countries informally exchanged the draft. We were exchange of hard copies in the hotel rooms.”

Initially, there was an attempt to take joint signature from all foreign ministers, but could not agree. On September 29, the US 20 point plan was made public after Trump’s Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu met.

Pakistan’s Palestine Policy

Dar reiterated that Pakistan’s Palestine policy is similar to the policy of Qua-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah and will never change. Pakistan supports making an independent Palestinian state the capital of Al Kuds Al Sharif. He also informed that some proposals of eight countries have been approved, while some have been kept for further talks.

The new proposal introduced by the US President Donald Trump for a ceasefire in Gaza has been appreciated by eight billion and Muslim -dominated countries including India, China, Russia. Meanwhile, Pakistan Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said on Tuesday (30 September 2025) that the decision to send the Army to help ‘Shanti Sena’ in Gaza will take the top leadership of Pakistan. He said that Palestine Law Enforcement Agency will work at the ground level.

What happened between Trump and Muslim country leaders?

Ishaq Dar told about Trump’s meeting with Muslim leaders on the sidelines of the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) last week. He said that in this meeting, leaders from Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Egypt, Jordan, Turki and Indonesia spoke to the end of the Gaza-Israel war with Trump.

‘Israel’s occupation of West Bank should be stopped’

He said that the representatives of Pakistan went to America for two objectives. One was related to the activities of the United Nations General Assembly, while the other was to work closely with like -minded countries to end the war in Gaza.

He said, “The purpose of the meeting with Trump was to try a ceasefire in Gaza, plan to rebuild Gaza, arrange to send humanitarian aid in Gaza, to prevent forcible displacement of Palestinians, arrange for the return of displaced people from Gaza and to stop the West Bank efforts to capture the West Bank.”

Will Pakistan deploy its army in Gaza?

Will Pakistan deploy any soldier in Gaza under the 20-Cutra Scheme? In response to this question, Ishaq Dar said, “Our view is that there should be an independent Palestinian government of technocrats. It will be looked after by an international monitoring body, which will also have mostly Palestinians. Tony Blair is trying in this regard. They have not got success yet, but they can get an opportunity now.”

Ishaq Dar said, “The force stationed there is Shanti Sena. There will be Palestine Law Enforcement Agencies at the ground level. There will be separate armies supporting them. Indonesia has offered 20,000 soldiers for this. I am sure that the leadership of Pakistan will also take a decision on it.”

Dar reiterated that Pakistan has always supported a peaceful solution of struggles through dialogue and believes that the conversation is the best way to move forward, provided there is honesty and seriousness from all the parties.

When and how ceasefire happened after stress

Tension between India and Pakistan increased after the killing of 26 people by terrorists on 22 April in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. Most of the people killed were citizens. India started Operation Sindoor on May 7, targeting the terrorist structure in Pakistan and Pakistan -occupied Kashmir in response to the Pahalgam attack. On May 10, it was agreed to end the struggle between India and Pakistan for four days after drone and missile attacks from across the border.

Trump has claimed several times to get ceasefire

US President Donald Trump has repeatedly claimed that he had a ceasefire between the two nuclear weapons-rich neighbors.

In his interview, Dar insisted that Pakistan is committed to eliminating terrorism from its land and he has made supreme sacrifice in this fight. He said, ‘It is surprising that India is still blaming the most affected country with terrorism.’

Will Pakistan use nuclear bomb against India?

Asked about Pakistan’s atomic capacity, Dar said that the country’s nuclear power is completely defensive, it has never been used and has no intention of using it; But if there is an attack on the sovereignty of Pakistan, then it will protect itself at all costs, no matter what country is included in it.
