[Indian media: Pakistan's inability to fight India due to secret supply of weapons to Ukraine]
On May 4, the Indian Express (IE) published an article stating that Pakistan is facing ammunition shortages due to secretly supplying weapons to Ukraine. The country's weapon reserves are only enough for a four-day all-out war with India. Since 2022, Pakistan has quietly been shipping weapons to Ukraine. As a result, its military product exports have increased from $13 million to $415 million, limiting its ability to conduct military operations.
The article states, "Between February and March 2023 alone, Pakistan provided 42,000 BM-21 122mm rockets, 60,000 155mm artillery shells, and another 130,000 122mm rockets."
The article points out that Pakistan is in a "predicament." Islamabad's weapon reserves have been depleted, leaving its defense situation "precarious." Economic crises, high inflation, and reduced foreign exchange reserves have all negatively impacted the combat capabilities of its armed forces.
After a terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir resulted in more than 25 deaths, tensions between India and Pakistan escalated. New Delhi accused Islamabad, prompting Pakistan to close its airspace and borders. There were clashes along the Line of Control in the Kashmir Valley, with Pakistan claiming India was preparing for an invasion.
