Pakistan army chief Asim Munir had hosted dinner party for PM Shehbaz Sharif, during which the latter gifted him an "edited" portrait of a Chinese drill as war photo against India.
In yet another instance of mockery, Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif gifted army chief Asim Munir with a purported picture of a 2019 Chinese drill, claiming it as Operation Bunyan al-Marsus against India.
Netizens tore the Pakistani Prime Minister and army chief to pieces and mocked them for 'photoshop".

Netizens Make Fun Of Shehbaz Sharif, Asim Munir
Putting out the original photo of the Chinese drill on X, Indians trolled the Pakistanis for using 'Canva" and 'Photoshop" to 'win" war against India.
'Pakistan's latest masterpiece: Shehbaz Sharif presents a photoshopped painting from a 2019 Chinese drill to Failed Marshal Asim Munir. Guess when you can't win on the battlefield, you win in Canva," a user wrote on X.

'Should we call it a country?" another one said.
'Pakistan's PM gifts Asim Munir a 2019 Chinese drill photo, claiming it's 'OP Bunyan Al Marsus'. Pakistan is now using a Chinese Drill Photo to Celebrate Its own Military Operation. They can't even produce original visuals of their own military operation. Shehbaz Sharif and Asim Munir are fooling their entire Nation. REALLY," another one said.

India hunts for rare earth magnet alternatives as China tightens grip
China holds around 50% of the world's rare earth reserves, 70% of extraction capacity, and over 90% of processing capability Puja Das Delhi Listen to This Article India is exploring alternative sources to import rare earth magnets amid ongoing supply disruptions from China, as there are no temporary domestic options available, according to a senior government official. Following the escalating tariffs imposed by US President Donald Trump on China, Beijing enacted export restrictions on seven heavy and medium rare earth elements and magnets on April 4. These include samarium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, lutetium, scandium, and yttrium, which are used in defence, energy, and automotive (auto) technologies. Chinese companies are now required to secure defence licences to export these resources. Despite India assuring that these magnets will only

Modi govt gives Armed Forces freedom to..., now India will have much more powerful weapons than Pakistan's...
New Delhi: The success of one month of Operation Sindoor was celebrated on Saturday, June 7 evening. The Defense Ministry has given permission to the armed forces to buy long-range missiles, artillery shells, kamikaze drones and air-to-air missiles. These missiles will be better than the Chinese missiles which Pakistan has. According to experts, the forces have assessed the damage. This shows that the Indian Air Force (IAF) shot down four Pakistani Chinese fighter planes. Along with this, two large aircraft were also shot down during Operation Sindoor. Possibly among them was a C-130 J and a SAAB 2000 Airborne Early Warning System. According to the Hindustan Times report, it has also been learned that two F-16 fighter planes were partially damaged in the IAF missile attack. The Indian Air Force attacked 11 airbases including Sargodha, Rafiq, Jacobabad and Noor Khan (Chaklala, Rawalpindi). The report said that India's Rafale fighter jets, S-400 missile systems and M777 guns performed well. The Russian air defense system shot down three enemy aircraft. Reports also revealed that India destroyed a Chinese LY-80 fire radar. Also, two AN TPQ-43 US radars and a Chinese HQ-9 radar unit were destroyed. The attack was carried out on May 10 at Chaklala. Intelligence has revealed that Pakistan has four HQ-9 radars. Earlier it was believed that they had only two. HQ-9 is similar to Russia's S-300 air defense radar. The Pakistan Army used PL-15 missile. It is made in China and has a range of 180 kilometers. Pakistan merged a 250-kilometer range HQ 9 air defense system with a 150-kilometer range system. This was done at Chaklala and Malir Cantonment near Karachi. They wanted to surprise the Indian Air Force. The action report revealed that the IAF fired 19 BrahMos supersonic cruise missiles on Pakistan's air base. Along with this, almost the same number of French SCALP subsonic cruise missiles were also fired. Pakistan fired CM-400 AKG air-launched supersonic missiles. They used JF-17 fighter jets. But these missiles could not do any damage. Pakistan also used YIHA loitering ammunition made in Turkey. Indian electronic warfare systems jammed them. Some missiles missed their target. The rest were shot down by India's air defense system. Pakistan also fired FATAH-1 rockets. They too either missed the target or were intercepted by Indian air defence systems.

Behind the ‘no-limits' partnership: Secret Russian intel document labels China ‘the enemy'
While President Vladimir Putin continues to publicly champion Russia's close ties with China, describing the relationship as a 'strategic golden era,' a confidential document from Russia's domestic security service paints a starkly different picture behind the scenes. read more Despite public declarations of a 'no-limits' partnership between Moscow and Beijing, a Russian intelligence document suggests deep-seated mistrust within the Kremlin toward China, according to a report by The New York Times. Inside the halls of Lubyanka, headquarters of Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB), a covert intelligence unit labels China not as a partner but as 'the enemy'. The report, based on an internal memo from Russia's FSB, outlines mounting concerns over Chinese espionage activities targeting Russian military, scientific and geopolitical assets. While President Vladimir Putin has portrayed Russia's relationship with China as entering a 'golden era,' a secret planning document—the authenticity of which has been confirmed by multiple Western intelligence agencies —reveals that Chinese intelligence is being treated as a major threat behind closed doors. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The eight-page FSB memo, believed to have been drafted in late 2023 or early 2024, was obtained by Ares Leaks, a cybercrime group and later reviewed by The New York Times. Though undated, it appears to outline current counterintelligence priorities and highlights efforts by Chinese agents to recruit Russian scientists and officials as well as to gain access to advanced military technologies. Chinese operatives are also suspected of surveilling Russia's war in Ukraine to study Western combat tactics and weapons systems. Among the FSB's major concerns is the possibility of covert territorial ambitions. The memo alleges that Chinese researchers and academics might be laying the groundwork to justify future claims on Russian land. Further, it warns of espionage operations in the Arctic, where Chinese mining companies and academic institutions are believed to be operating as intelligence fronts. In response, Russian counterintelligence launched a programme titled 'Entente-4' just days before the beginning of the Russia-Ukraine war in 2022. The programme—ironically named after the historical Franco-Russian alliance, was designed to prevent Chinese infiltration at a time when Moscow's military and intelligence focus had shifted heavily westward. Since then, according to the report, the FSB has tracked an increasing number of attempts by Chinese intelligence to penetrate Russian political and business circles. The document details orders for surveillance of Russian people closely tied to China and heightened monitoring of the Chinese messaging app WeChat. This includes hacking phones and gathering personal data using a specialised FSB tool. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Interestingly, the document also notes Beijing's own internal distrust. Chinese agents returning from Russia are reportedly subjected to polygraph tests, while Russian nationals in China, especially students or those married to Chinese citizens, are considered prime targets for recruitment. The internal FSB assessments reflect a delicate balancing act: actively countering Chinese espionage while maintaining a façade of diplomatic unity. Officers have been instructed to avoid any public references to Chinese intelligence as a threat, so as not to strain bilateral ties. Some experts interpret the memo as evidence that Russia could be pried away from China with the right diplomatic strategy. Others suggest the opposite: that Putin is fully aware of the risks, yet sees the benefits of deepening ties with Beijing as outweighing any concerns. As The New York Times notes, China has become an economic lifeline for Russia amid Western sanctions, supplying everything from consumer electronics to critical military components. And with over 40 meetings between Putin and Xi Jinping in recent years, the strategic alignment appears too deeply entrenched for mistrust to alter its course, at least for now.
