India-Pakistan conflict: PM Modi's Adampur air base visit busts Pakistan's false claims on S-400. Here's how

After his address to the nation on Operation Sindoor, Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the Adampur airbase in Punjab on Tuesday. Accompanied by Air Chief Marshal A P Singh, PM Modi was seen interacting with the airmen at the air base. The image that stood out from PM Modi's surprise visit to the air base in Punjab was an intact S-400 air defence system in the background. 

Besides the government's strong backing of the armed forces, Prime Minister Modi's visit debunked Pakistan's claims that its hypersonic missiles fired from the JF-17 fighter jet destroyed the S-400 air defence system in Adampur. 

Furthermore, Pakistan shared fake videos and images of the Adampur airbase being severely damaged as part of its disinformation campaign.

Citing a random patch, the Pakistan military released what it called a satellite image of a damaged S-400 air defence system and wrote: "S-400 damaged!!!" There were no visible signs of any destruction, such as craters, debris or any damaged equipment in the image.
