New Delhi, July 04, 2025 (ANI): Speaking at the event 'New Age Military Technologies' organised by FICCI, Deputy Chief of Army Staff (Capability Development & Sustenance), Lt Gen Rahul R Singh explain the situation of Operation Sindoor in his words as “one border, three enemies” against India.
00:00One border, two adversaries. So we saw Pakistan one side, but adversaries were two. And if I would say actually four or three actually. So Pakistan was the front face. We had China providing all possible support. And it's no surprise because if you were to look at statistics, in the last five years, 81% of the military hardware that Pakistan is getting is all Chinese, 81% of that.
00:27So it's no surprise. And China, of course, the good old victim killed by a borrowed knife, 36 stratagems that China talks about killed by a borrowed knife. So he would rather use the neighbor to cause pain than getting involved in the mud slinging match on the northern border.
00:48So that is what he's seen. And another thing that China perhaps has seen is that he's able to test his weapons against, say, various other weapon system that are there.
01:00It's like a live lab, which is available to us. That is what is something we have to be very, very cognizant about.
01:09Again, Turkey also played a very important role in providing the type of support that was there.
01:16Barakhtar, of course, he's been giving from before. We saw numerous other drones also coming in, landing in the face of war during the war, along with trained sort of individuals who were there.
