It seems like the Indian revelations about their “air strikes” in Pakistan will never end. Indian authorities had asserted that in response to the Pulwama attack, they had “destroyed” a terror camp in Balakot which also led to a high death toll.
India’s initial claim regarding Balakot strikes has just been contradicted by their own foreign minister
Sushma Swaraj, the Minister of External Affairs for India, stated that no Pakistani soldier or civilian was killed by Balakot airstrike. Swaraj issued a statement which is obviously contradictory to all the prior statements made by the Indian authorities. She explained that though the strikes happened but no casualty was caused as a result.

DG ISPR promptly responded to the ‘new’ statement by maintaining Pakistan’s original stance and ‘appreciated’ the Indian Minister for finally accepting the truth
He also urged Ms. Swaraj to review Indian claims regarding F-16, air strike 2016 and the denial of the shot-down of IAF jets by PAF. He added to his statement by saying that truth always prevails and this is what has happened in this situation too.
Finally the truth under ground reality compulsions. Hopefully, so will be about other false Indian claims ie surgical strike 2016, denial of shooting down of 2 IAF jets by PAF and claim about F16. Better late than never.#TruthPrevails#PakistanZindabad https://t.co/Kim8CZTdlJ

Many even asked India to decide once and for all what their final statement on the matter is

A few summarized the humiliating situation for India
They clearly mentioned that how the situation has been morphed into Pakistan’s favor.
So this settles it?
-44 soldiers died in pulwana
-0 dead in Balakot strikes
-three aircrafts lost
-Pak earned international respect for releasing our pilot
-Pak now supports Modi as next PMhttps://t.co/FQRp60HuKB— Rohit Malaviya | 🇮🇳 (@RohitMalaviya_) April 19, 2019
They even asserted that more Indian “truth bombs” are on their way and soon the Indian authorities will reveal that NO F-16 was shot down by IAF either

The response by DG ISPR is being appreciated by all. While most of the Pakistanis are happy to see the paradigmatic shift in the Indian claims, a lot of people are equally prepared for further u-turns in the Indian statement. Similar to DG ISPR, Pakistanis are urging the Indian authorities to review their claims over previous air strikes as well.
