Pakistan is steadily establishing itself as a formidable presence in defence and defence production, earning recognition on the international stage for the quality and sophistication of its military capabilities. Its growing stature is not accidental. It reflects years of systematic investment in training, technology, and strategic foresight, positioning the country as a credible actor in a region marked by enduring volatility and complex security challenges. The nation’s capabilities were vividly demonstrated on 10 May last year, when the Pakistan Armed Forces responded decisively to Indian aggression through the “Bunyan-e-Marsoos” operation. Military analysts have since described the operation as a model…

By Syed Shahmim Akhtar In the early weeks of 2026, President Donald Trump rekindled a geopolitical debate that many believed belonged to a bygone era of great‑power rivalry. At the White House, he asserted that the United States must “acquire” Greenland to prevent Russia or China from establishing a foothold on the vast Arctic island. “If we don’t take Greenland, Russia or China will take it,” he declared, framing the situation as a stark choice between American strategic primacy and unwanted neighbors from abroad. The remark, blunt in its formulation and sweeping in its implications, reflects a worldview in which…

By Dr Abdul Samad Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has issued a striking warning to U.S. President Donald Trump, framing his fate alongside historical figures such as Pharaoh, Nimrod, and Iran’s former ruler Reza Shah. In a statement circulated on social media on Monday, Khamenei described Trump as a leader consumed by arrogance, attempting to impose his will across the globe, yet cautioned that history demonstrates the ultimate consequences even the most powerful must face. The remarks, blunt in tone and steeped in historical symbolism, have drawn attention not only for their confrontational language but also for the context…

By Advocate Syeda Anam Sana Naqvi Pakistan stands at a crossroads, witnessing a quiet yet significant transformation in the role of women in society. Education, professional opportunities, and the pursuit of independence have inspired many women to carve out lives on their own terms, pursuing careers, moving into cities, and living independently. Yet, this very assertion of autonomy brings with it an often invisible but deeply entrenched struggle—a struggle against societal suspicion, legal gaps, and systemic inertia that continue to undermine the safety and dignity of single working women. In a society still negotiating between tradition and modernity, these women…

By Muhammad Mohsin Iqbal From the very dawn of creation, the universe has moved according to a divine equilibrium. Allah Almighty brought into existence innumerable creatures, assigning each its sphere and sustenance. On land, human beings were endowed with intellect, conscience, and moral responsibility; in the oceans, an astonishing diversity of life emerged, numbering in the hundreds of thousands of known species, with many more still undiscovered. Among these aquatic beings, the whale shark (Rhincodon typus) stands as the largest fish, gliding through the seas and sustaining itself by filtering vast volumes of water to consume plankton and tiny fish.…

By Uzma Ehtasham The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) has once again reaffirmed its commitment to the resolution of the Jammu and Kashmir dispute, invoking the United Nations Commission resolution of 6 January 1949. This resolution, which enshrined the right of the Kashmiri people to self-determination, remains, according to the OIC, the only legally recognized framework for addressing a conflict that has spanned more than seven decades. Yet, decades of international attention have yielded little tangible change, leaving the people of Kashmir caught in a cycle of occupation, resistance, and persistent human suffering. The OIC’s renewed appeal, while significant in…

In recent statements that have sent shockwaves across international corridors of power, former United States President Donald Trump laid bare a worldview that is at once audacious and profoundly alarming. Speaking to The New York Times and a range of international media outlets, he proclaimed that no force on Earth could restrain American military action save his own moral compass. In doing so, he positioned the United States not merely as a leading global power, but as an entity above the rules, treaties, and norms designed to prevent catastrophe. The implications of this declaration are sobering: global peace, nuclear stability,…

By Asghar Ali Mubarak Global demand for Pakistan’s JF-17 Thunder fighter jets is on the rise. The success of the country’s arms industry has the potential to transform Pakistan’s economy. During the four-day conflict with India in May last year, Pakistan not only demonstrated the effectiveness of Chinese-made military equipment but also showcased its indigenously developed weapons, including the JF-17 Thunder fighter jet, the Al-Khalid main battle tank, and the Fateh series guided multi-launch rocket system. The JF-17 Thunder, in particular, proved its combat capabilities during clashes with India in both May last year and in 2019. Last year, it…
