Ex-CDS reveals Pak failed to hit targets despite Chinese satellite imagery during Operation Sindoor

Aug 26, 2026

New Delhi, August 26 (ANI): On Chinese satellite used by Pakistan during Operation Sindoor, former CDS Anil Chauhan said, "Commercial satellite facilities are available from a number of US companies and similarly today there are a number of Chinese companies also in the field which provide you commercial images... I think Pakistan felt that when I said that they were blind and they did not know the results of their strikes. Till 12th, they were trying their best to obtain images so that they would have some evidence of a target with their head. But unfortunately, once they did not get it, they tried other Chinese satellites also... But the fact is that they're not able to hit targets. They did, of course, try. So commercial satellite images of China are available to anyone. Anyone can buy. So it's not just Pakistanis."
