💨 Abstract

India has blocked the X accounts of three state-run media outlets from China and Turkey—Global Times, Xinhua, and TRT World—citing the spread of misinformation during tensions with Pakistan. The move follows false reports, including claims that an Indian Rafale fighter jet was shot down. India's Press Information Bureau refuted these claims, and the Indian Embassy in Beijing criticized Global Times for spreading disinformation.
