Senior journalist and anchorperson Mansoor Ali Khan revealed in his vlog that a hacker group had launched a major cyberattack on India’s leading media company, Sun TV Network. According to him, the attack resulted in the network’s domain being completely locked out, while pro-Pakistan content was displayed by the hackers.
Mansoor Ali Khan further claimed that an Indian P-8I Poseidon surveillance aircraft was spotted flying approximately 110 nautical miles off Karachi’s coastline. He said there were concerns that the aircraft was attempting to gather intelligence on Pakistan’s new Hangor-class submarine. During the same period, the Pakistan Navy and Marines reportedly conducted FPV drone exercises named “Ababeel.”
He also stated that security forces in Khyber district shot down an Afghan drone that had crossed the border into Pakistan.
It is worth noting that, two days earlier, Pakistani hackers were also claimed to have hacked Indian news channels and broadcast Pakistan’s national anthem.
According to the claims, the broadcasts of several well-known Indian news channels were disrupted while the President of India was delivering a speech at an official ceremony. During the interruption, Pakistan’s national anthem allegedly began playing on air.
The hackers were also said to have displayed a message reading, “Do not mess with Pakistan,” alongside Pakistan’s national anthem, claiming responsibility for the cyberattack.
The alleged incident reportedly occurred while the Indian President was addressing an important event, when the broadcast system suddenly experienced technical disruption. Viewers reportedly saw Pakistan’s national anthem begin playing during the live transmission, surprising audiences and causing significant disruption across several Indian media outlets.
For a short period, the channels’ broadcasts were reportedly affected, with unusual content appearing on screen. The incident also generated widespread discussion on social media, where various claims and speculation quickly emerged.
The report further states that the Indian government and pro-government media have consistently engaged in anti-Pakistan propaganda. It claims that Pakistani cyber operators exposed weaknesses in their systems, following what it describes as Pakistan’s earlier military successes against India. The report concludes by stating that Pakistani cyber operators warned India against provoking Pakistan, saying that the consequences would not be favorable.
