do we have some satellite (clear proof like in Sept 2019) pics that we hit hard at some crucial target?
China would not have missed that. Why won't it release?
Maybe China only gave satellite imagery on this condition that it won't be released. Or maybe Indians are right and we didn't hit anything. It is a moot point as ceasefire was accepted by India and with all the rhetoric of Op Sindoor is still ongoing and just on pause, they haven't dared to return on battlefield.
To begin with, China’s publicly acknowledged "Jilin-1" civil satellite system is already the world's largest satellite imagery constellation. As for the PLA's capabilities in this area, details regarding its military satellites have not been disclosed. However, it is certain that satellite imagery of this kind reaches the desks of China's top leadership.

But,

Official Chinese agencies do not release such imagery when public attention is at its peak. Typically, China considers whether to release the images only after the initial wave of public interest has subsided, and the actual release is handled in an exceptionally low-key manner.

There is a fundamental philosophy in Chinese culture: 打人不打脸(when striking someone, do not hit them in the face). Even when facing an enemy, we strive to preserve their face and dignity. Its core philosophy is to avoid a scenario where a desperate enemy, driven to the wall, lashes out in a suicidal, mutually destructive frenzy.

It will be even if real photos were released. The B&W visual of the depot was denied by their 2019 ACM. However, it was sufficient for Pakistanis and the international audience.

Thank you for explaining your perspective.
Just saying, if you want to stir up emotions or election results, you can release. AI is getting very common, and they can save their 'face'. However, it will expose China's capabilities (depending on the resolution).
 
Enough has been said in this thread related to the OP post/video. I will add to that: Never underestimate the potentials for an India-Pakistan war to become a nuclear conflict. Never. The rivalry is historic and hostile. And since Modi's election to power in 2014, I notice the peace lobby in Pakistan has diminished a lot and there is now widespread anger in Pakistan against India. Even the influence of the Bollywood songs/movies is less. Pakistanis, whether rightly or not, perceive India as an existential/civilizational threat.

If a war were to extend where the India's main advantage of the Brahmos missiles start raining down on Pakistan's infrastructure then very likely Pakistan will resort to at least tactical nukes to stop India. I hope we will never see an extended war between the two countries.
 
If Tejas Mk1A production fails to pick up, Indian Air Force's squadron strength could fall below that of Pakistan Air Force. that does not mean India would lose its overall air superiority.

However, if Tejas Mk1A production accelerates and Tejas Mk2 enters service by 2030, India could significantly narrow the gap with China's air force in terms of fighter squadron strength,
