๐Ÿšซ FACT CHECK: This Tweet Contains Misinformation

Claim: India on PoK situation "As you have yourself witnessed, the Pakistani Establishment continues to unleash ruthless force against peaceful civilians in PoJK. This crackdown has resulted in the tragic death of over 40 civilians and serious injuries to many. Its absolute disdain for the innocent people of PoJK was laid bare when their Defence Minister branded the protesting civilians as enemies. Adding to this, the Special Assistant to PM on Political Affairs, openly admitted that the very โ€œmujahideenโ€ that Pak establishment trained, armed and sent to bleed India have now turned their guns inward, weaponizing themselves against the state. The so-called elections stand as a humiliating rejection of the Pak Establishment. Facing a violent regime, the people have requested international organizations for an independent investigation into the unlawful killings. We urge that the international community should scrutinize Pakistanโ€™s actions and hold it accountable for its atrocities."
