KARACHI: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Saturday hit out at the government for “informing” Pakistan about the missile strikes as part of Operation Sindoor, saying it was a crime and asking who had authorised it.

In a post on X, Gandhi questioned External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar for publicly admitting that the government of India had informed Pakistan of the action and asked how many aircraft the Indian Air Force lost as a result.

“Informing Pakistan at the start of our attack was a crime. EAM has publicly admitted that GOI did it. Who authorised it? How many aircraft did our air force lose as a result?” said Gandhi, the leader of opposition in the Lok Sabha.

He also shared an undated video of Jaishankar saying India had informed Pakistan of the action against “terror infrastructure” on its soil.
