US President Donald Trump has claimed that during last year’s military escalation between India and Pakistan, as many as 11 jets were shot down — a figure he repeated while asserting he helped broker a ceasefire by threatening trade penalties. India has consistently rejected any third‑party mediation in the conflict, saying de‑escalation was agreed directly between the two militaries.
