Indian general admits "tactical mistake" and loss of jets in Pakistan clash

The latest: Chief of Defense Staff Gen. Anil Chauhan told Bloomberg on the sidelines of the Shangri-La Dialogue that what really matters is how fast troops identified the "tactical mistake, which we made," and its solution, allowing for renewed "targeting at long range."

• Chauhan said claims that Pakistan downed six jets are "absolutely incorrect."
• Social media was flooded with misinformation — flowing from both sides — during the May 7-10 skirmishes.

Catch up quick: The fighting killed dozens of people. It was the most recent flashpoint between the nuclear-armed neighbors.

• The two have been feuding for decades.
• Border skirmishes between 2016 and 2018 displaced thousands of people on both sides of the Line of Control.

What we're watching: What the blows between New Delhi and Islamabad mean for larger tech-supremacy debates between the West and China.

• Commentary published Monday by the Royal United Services Institute argues there is a risk of drawing the wrong conclusions "if Indian fighter losses are looked at without close examination of the wider operational picture."
