According to the Pakistani financial impact report which is now circulating online, Pakistan has suffered massive losses estimated at over 27,863 crore rupees ($3.3 billion USD) following its conflict with India during Operation Sindoor in April 2025.
The Pakistan Air Force faced severe damage, including the destruction of multiple F-16 fighter jets, expensive AEW&C aircraft, refueling tankers, and unmanned combat drones. Ground assets such as missile batteries and command centers were also destroyed.

Operational costs from sustained military engagements further added to the financial strain, while critical airbases required costly repairs.
This huge setback has not gone unnoticed internationally or domestically. Many are mocking Pakistan as a “broke country” unable to withstand the economic fallout of such military failures.

Despite these criticisms, stability within Pakistan remains crucial. The country’s fragile political and economic situation means that any collapse of the regime could empower terrorist organizations and extremists, which would pose a direct threat to India’s security.
Therefore, while IMF grants act as a temporary safeguard, they must be coupled with stringent oversight to ensure the funds are used appropriately.
The global community, especially the IMF, must be vigilant and enforce strict conditions on Pakistan’s aid to prevent misuse.
Without accountability, continued financial support risks enabling further regional instability and security threats, undermining peace efforts in South Asia.
