By Khpalwak Mohmand At Torkham Zero Point, where the borders of Pakistan and Afghanistan meet in tense silence, an unshrouded body has become a stark mirror reflecting the failures of state systems, social values, and human compassion. The death of Dawood, a young man from the Musa Khel area of Mohmand district, is not merely a tragic incident. It is a disturbing testament to what can happen when bureaucracy, identity, and tradition collide in the most unforgiving of ways. Dawood had spent much of his life in Taxila, engaged in the modest poultry business, living quietly yet precariously in a…

By Dr Zawwar Hussain The Earth we inhabit is far more than a backdrop of land, sky, and sea. It is a living, breathing system, a complex web in which every element—air, water, rock, and life itself—is intimately entwined. The apparent separations between atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and biosphere are convenient distinctions for scientists, yet in reality, they function as a single, cohesive whole. Understanding this unity is not a mere academic exercise. It is an urgent necessity in a world increasingly defined by climate crises, dwindling freshwater, and the erosion of ecosystems that have taken millennia to evolve. The atmosphere,…

By Muhammad Mohsin Iqbal In the intricate theatre of global politics, alliances rarely emerge solely from shared values. More often, they are born from shared anxieties, overlapping fears that shape the decisions of powerful states. Today, the turbulence stretching from the Middle East to South Asia seems to reflect precisely such a pattern—a subtle, informal alignment among Israel, India, and the United States. Each pursues its own national priorities, yet the convergence of their concerns—Israel over Iran, India over Pakistan, and the United States over both—has created a matrix of coordinated pressure, the reverberations of which continue to shape regional…

By Shakeel Hussain History is often written on maps, etched into borders and capitals, yet its deepest traces are found in human lives. Few conflicts illustrate this more starkly than the enduring story of Palestine. More than seven decades after the Nakba—the catastrophe that displaced hundreds of thousands in 1948—the Palestinian question continues to reverberate across continents, a reminder that unresolved injustice does not fade with time. The establishment of Israel in 1948 did more than redraw political boundaries; it uprooted communities, fractured families, and transformed millions of lives into a daily struggle for survival. Homes were abandoned, villages depopulated,…

For decades, the military balance in the Gulf was a matter of brute physics: the throw-weight of a missile, the speed of a jet, the armor on a tank. It was a theatre defined by the visible and the kinetic, where the superpowers projected their might through carrier groups and forward operating bases. That era is receding into the history books, replaced by a conflict fought in the invisible spectrum. The calculus of warfare across the Middle East is being rewritten not in terms of explosives, but of electrons. A series of detailed analyses, drawing from regional media and confirmed…
