Sun May 11 06:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Pakistani Air Force Official Claims Responsibility for Pulwama Attack
**ISLAMABAD** – A senior Pakistani Air Force official has publicly acknowledged Pakistan’s role in the 2019 Pulwama attack, contradicting Islamabad’s previous denials. Air Vice Marshal Aurangzeb Ahmad, during a recent press conference alongside other military officials, boasted about Pakistan’s “amazing feats” in Pulwama, implicitly claiming responsibility for the bombing that killed 40 Indian paramilitary personnel.
Ahmad’s statement, made during a press briefing about Operation Sindhu, directly contradicts Pakistan’s long-standing assertion of non-involvement in the attack. His comments, alongside those of other officials, highlight Pakistan’s willingness to engage in actions that threaten neighboring countries.
The admission fuels accusations that Pakistan actively supports terrorism and undermines previous attempts by Pakistani leaders to distance the country from the Pulwama attack. The statement adds further tension to the already strained relationship between India and Pakistan. Similar statements regarding the recent Pahalgam attack suggest this stance is not an isolated incident.
