WEBDESK: Indian propaganda accounts, particularly those linked with RAW, have recently been spreading false claims suggesting that Pakistan shared intelligence with Iran about Israeli targets.

All these allegations are utterly false and founded on a distorted version of recent statement by Pakistan Defence Minister, Khawaja Asif.

Speaking in the National Assembly on June 14, Khawaja Asif made no such admission.

In fact, his comments were entirely diplomatic and moral in nature, reaffirming Pakistan’s support for Iran in the face of Israeli aggression.

The Defence Minnister of Pakistan was also falsely referred to as the PM of Pakistan, which is another false claim.

Anyone fluent in Urdu can clearly understand the context of what he said.

The minister only reiterated Pakistan’s solidarity in moral and diplomatic terms. There was no mention or suggestion of intelligence sharing at any point.

Those misrepresenting his words seem to be deliberately spreading misinformation to serve a certain narrative.

The original statement is available for anyone to hear and understand.

RT has now issued an apology, acknowledging the error in reporting Khawaja Asif’s statement.
