Information Minister Ataullah Tarar has said the Indian drones shot down by the armed forces are Pakistan’s “war trophy”, which will “be kept in museums”.

“We will show them to our children and tell them that when India failed with its jets, it used drones,” he said in a speech on the floor of the National Assembly.

He added that India also suffered heavy losses on the Line of Control, highlighting that it was a big achievement for Pakistan when it comes to conventional warfare. “You will find very few examples of this in the world.”

“This is what you call a befitting response,” Tarar asserted.
