Exclusive: Pakistan's Chinese-made jet brought down two Indian fighter aircraft, US officials say (Reuters)

The Pakistani fighter jet was a J-10CE. It's a 4th-generation fighter which I believe is on-par with the F-16.

From what I've seen online, one of the two Indian jets in this report was a French Rafale. The other wasn't specified as of now, but it's likely not an American jet. Maybe another Rafale.

China must be cheering the news.

Meanwhile the Indian nationalists, a.k.a. MIGA, are beside themselves. They're going all around social media downvoting posts, exhibiting denial, and generally trying to cope with the embarrassment.

Trump nominates doctor and influencer for US surgeon general (BBC)

She graduated from Stanford Medical School but dropped out of surgical residency, reportedly because of her disillusionment with health care in the U.S. She doesn't hold a medical license, but instead practices "alternative medicine."

She was nominated at the recommendation of RFQ Jr.
