Air Chief Marshal Amar Preet Singh said on Saturday that in just 80–90 hours of war, India hurt Pakistan’s air defense system so much that it was clear that any continuity of conflict would cost Islamabad even more.
Calling the Indo-Pak struggle a “high-tech” war, the head of the Air Staff said that India shot five Pakistani jets during Operation Sindoor.
“I could say that it was more than a high -tech war that was fought. In a war of 80 to 90 hours, we were able to harm the air system so much that it was clear for them that if they continue, they are going to pay more and more for it,” Air chief Marshall said during an incident in Bengaluru.
“So they came forward and sent a message to our DGMO that they wanted to talk. It was accepted on our behalf. The decision was taken at the highest level,” he said.
