Israel Apologizes for Wrong Map Showing Jammu and Kashmir as Part of Pakistan.

The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) has issued an official apology after a controversial map showing Jammu & Kashmir as part of Pakistan and India’s northeast states under Nepal sparked outrage on social media. The map, shared amid escalating tensions between Israel and Iran, inaccurately depicted Indian territory, triggering a swift backlash from users across X (formerly Twitter). Many tagged Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, demanding corrections and highlighting India’s firm stance on its territorial integrity.
The IDF responded within 90 minutes, clarifying that the graphic was an illustrative tool to depict regional missile threats and not meant to represent precise borders. Despite the clarification, the error raised eyebrows given the strong diplomatic and military ties between India and Israel. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Netanyahu share a close relationship, with India being one of Israel’s top trading and defense cooperation partners.
The incident occurred alongside Israel’s Operation Rising Lion, a major strike against Iranian nuclear infrastructure, followed by retaliatory attacks from Iran. While the map controversy may have been unintentional, it underscores the sensitivity around India’s sovereignty and the importance of geopolitical accuracy in global communications.
