Pakistan‑India disinformation campaign

Entities: Joint Awami Action Committee · Rawalakot · Mirpur division · Attaullah Tarar · Azad Jammu and Kashmir

Overview

In early July 2026, Indian security officials reported that Pakistan’s Inter‑Services Intelligence (ISI) had begun a multi‑front information operation, using deep‑fake videos and other fabricated content to influence perceptions of the Kashmir dispute and to counter Indian diplomatic and military activity.

By the end of July, Pakistani authorities shifted the focus of their public statements, accusing an India‑based digital influence network of operating bot farms and AI‑generated imagery to spread anti‑state narratives against Pakistan’s government, armed forces, and its position on Kashmir. Both sides framed the other as orchestrating coordinated online attacks, indicating an escalating digital propaganda battle between the two nations.
