Neutrality

Review of sources:

ISI, the Pakistani intelligence agency. Uses the term "shahadat" (martyrdom).
Dunya News, a Pakistani news channel founded and run by the Mayor of Lahore. Uses the term "martyred".
The Nation, a Pakistani newspaper. Uses the term "martyred".
The Express Tribune, a Pakistani newspaper accused of self-censorship. Uses the term "martyred".
Geo News, a Pakistani news channel owned by Jang (lit. "War") Media Group. Uses the term "martyrs".
ISI, the Pakistani intelligence agency. Uses the term "shadahat" (martyrdom).
Pakistan Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Kashmir Media Service, focusing entirely on "Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir". Uses the term "martyred".

All 8 sources are Pakistani, and 7 of the 8 use the term "martyr". That makes me question this article's neutrality. JM (talk) 14:53, 8 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I added new international sources, can we remove it now? - PunjabiEditor69 (talk) 21:11, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've further edited the article: diff. The main contention you may have with this is that I've now inserted "Pakistan claimed" - but the reason I've done so is that this wording is taken directly from the international sources you yourself cited. (Keep in mind that calling something a "claim" does not mean something is false.) If you're fine with this, then I won't stop you from removing the neutrality template.
