Must Watch: Chinese media's videos about Pakistan victory are FIRE
During the recent clash between nuclear-armed neighbours Pakistan and India, not only were world leaders watching closely, but netizens around the globe were also locked in. As tensions between the two countries reached a boiling point, Chinese support for Pakistan wasn't just seen on the diplomatic front but also online.
Chinese social media users, especially meme creators, jumped into the digital battlefield and began trolling India with hilarious, fiery content.
China, being Pakistan's strong and trusted ally, stood like a steel wall during this tense time. Alongside this political support, Chinese memers also joined hands with Pakistanis in the online "meme war", mocking India's military failures and celebrating Pakistan's strong response.
Three Indian Rafales were reportedly downed by a Chinese-made Pakistani J-10 fighter jet, giving Beijing an extra reason to celebrate.
After this, the Chinese internet quickly flooded with funny videos and memes mocking India's military setbacks during what many are calling the biggest air battle in modern history. The content included jokes about the destroyed S-400 missile defence system, the Rafale jets shot down by Pakistan, and even an AI-generated video of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi holding a broken Rafale at a fashion show.
In another AI-generated clip, a Chinese panda is seen training Pakistani markhors, symbolizing the strong China-Pakistan alliance in a light-hearted way.
Another TikTok video by four Chinese content creators went viral on social media. The video shows the memers dressed in Indian-style clothes, dancing to a funny version of the Indian Punjabi hit Tunak Tunak.
While dancing, they act out India's failed claims and the loss of their Rafale jets. The video is mocking how Pakistan Air Force shot down multiple Indian aircraft, including the modern French-made Rafale fighter jet, a big moment that even caught China's attention.
