Asim Munir reportedly attended the funeral of Major Moiz Abbas Shah, who was killed in a recent TTP ambush, and had claimed to capture IAF Group Captain Abhinandan Varthaman.
Pakistan's Field Marshal Asim Munir attended the funeral of Major Moiz Abbas Shah, who was killed in an ambush by the terrorist group Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) on Tuesday, multiple media reports suggested.
Images widely shared on social media showed Asim Munir offering prayers at the funeral of Shah.
Major Moiz Abbas Shah was a Pakistani officer who claimed to have captured Indian Air Force Group Captain Abhinandan Varthaman in 2019.
Reports suggested the attacks resulted in the deaths of 14 Pakistani personnel, including Major Shah.
However, some pro-Pakistan social media handles claimed that six personnel, including Shah, were killed in the Sargodha clash.
