US President Donald Trump has again claimed that his administration helped broker a ceasefire between India and Pakistan, while also alleging that 11 military aircraft were shot down during the recent conflict. Trump said the fighting risked escalating into a wider confrontation before diplomatic efforts led to a halt in hostilities. India has consistently maintained that the ceasefire resulted from direct military-level talks between the two countries and has rejected claims of third-party mediation. Trump's latest remarks have reignited debate over the conflict's diplomatic outcome and the scale of military losses reported during the escalation. (PC: File)
