Mentioning Turkey, apart from Pakistan and China, Lt Gen Rahul R Singh further emphasised that Turkey also played a significant role in providing military support.

When DGMO-level talks were on, Pakistan had the live updates of our important vectors from China... We need a robust air defence system," he reiterated. The Deputy Army Chief pointed out that China used the situation "like a lab" to test its weapons. "China perhaps has seen that it's able to test its weapons against various other weapon systems that are there. It's like a live lab which is available to it," General Rahul Singh emphasised. General Singh was speaking at the New Age Military Technologies event organised by FICCI. Sharing other lessons picked up, he said that air defence and its role during the entire operation were crucial. "This time, our population centres were not quite addressed, but next time, we need to be prepared for that," he warned.

MASSIVE REVELATION- Indian Army Exposes China, Turkey, Pakistan Nexus During Operation Sindoor
Lt Gen Rahul R Singh, Deputy Chief of Army Staff (Capability Development & Sustenance), revealed chilling new details from Operation Sindoor. He said India faced not one, but three adversaries: Pakistan on the front, China providing real-time intelligence and weapons, and Turkey offering strategic support. He warned that China's 81% contribution to Pakistan's military hardware creates a 'live lab' scenario for Beijing to test its weapons. During DGMO-level talks, Pakistan had live updates of Indian positions, allegedly shared by China. Lt Gen Singh stressed the urgent need for a future-proof air defence system, noting that while Indian population centres were spared this time, the next conflict may target civilians directly.#operationsindoor #ltgenrahulsingh #indianarmy #triServicesStrike #ficcidefenceevent #militarytech #defencestrategy #warcontrol #dataintelligence #integratedforces #ltgenrahulsingh #airdefenceindia #chinapakistanaxis #turkey #3frontthreat #indiandefence #liveintelleak #defencereforms #toi #toibharat #bharat #trending #breakingnews #indianews Read More
