Afghan forces have shot down a Pakistani aircraft that entered Afghanistan's airspace, Afghanistan's Tolo News reported, citing sources, APA reports.
An unverified video of a burning plane carcass also went viral on social media, claiming it to be a Pakistani F-16 fighter jet that was shot down by Afghan forces.
The video showed wreckage of a plane with serial number 85510 and the Pakistani flag painted near the vertical stabiliser. However, the shape and size of the plane do not resemble that of an F-16.
A query on Grok, a popular bot on X, also showed the wreckage doesn't resemble an F-16 fighter.
Afghan media claimed their forces shot it down after Pakistani airstrikes entered Afghan airspace on Friday. Pakistan confirmed strikes on militants but reported zero aircraft losses.
