External influence is often mistaken for direct control. In Bangladesh’s political churn, Pakistan’s role, where it exists, operates through aligned networks, shared narratives, and ideological convergence rather than command and coordination. Understanding this distinction is critical to crafting effective, resilient policy responses.

The India–Pakistan rivalry has transitioned into a hybrid engagement model where traditional espionage is superseded by multi-domain operations. This shift targets critical infrastructure and societal cohesion, utilizing "grey zone" tactics to bypass conventional nuclear deterrence. By analyzing the convergence of cyber-sabotage, weaponized disinformation, and proxy attribution, this piece evaluates the risk of strategic miscalculation and proposes a framework for regional st

In late 2019, doctors in Wuhan raised early warnings about a dangerous new illness, only to be silenced. The suppression of frontline medical voices delayed global awareness and reshaped the Covid-19 pandemic. This article examines how punishing truth-tellers undermines public health and why protecting whistleblowers is essential to preventing future crises.

The early weeks of the Wuhan outbreak showed how quickly a public health emergency can become a political crisis. Covid-19 was not only a biological threat, but a governance failure shaped by information control, delayed disclosure, and political incentives. Wuhan revealed a global vulnerability that extends far beyond China, and beyond Covid-19.

In late December 2019, a small pneumonia cluster in Wuhan quietly marked the beginning of the most disruptive global crisis in a century. This article examines the critical early weeks—when delays, information control, and governance failures turned a containable outbreak into a global pandemic, and why those lessons still matter for future health security.

Solar energy doesn’t have to be complicated. This beginner-friendly guide explains how solar panels work, how to choose the right system for your home, and what first-time homeowners should consider before installing solar. Learn how sunlight turns into savings and why solar is a smart long-term investment.

Pakistan’s dramatic missile tests and “carrier-killer” claims mask a harsher reality: a navy struggling with maintenance failures, limited deployments, and weak maritime awareness. During India’s Operation Sindoor, Pakistan’s fleet stayed close to shore, revealing the gap between its narrative and its actual ability to challenge an Indian carrier group.

Uyghur repression has expanded beyond Xinjiang, shaping global debates on labor transfers, supply-chain risks, and transnational repression. As China’s reach extends across borders, the issue increasingly intersects with security, diplomacy, and economic dependency—posing a major test for how the international community responds to state-driven coercion and human-rights concerns.

Beijing’s policies in Xinjiang extend beyond surveillance, transforming culture, family structures, and demographic patterns. Restrictions on religion, language, education, and birth rates are reshaping Uyghur identity, raising global concerns about the long-term reconfiguration of an entire society.

Xinjiang has become a testing ground for China’s most advanced systems of surveillance and political control. From mass data collection to intrusive home inspections and large-scale detentions, the region illustrates how state power, technology, and ideology can be fused to govern an entire population with unprecedented precision.

Russia’s space-industrial base hasn’t collapsed; it has rewired itself. Through new regional clusters, sanctioned electronics routed via shadow intermediaries, and deepening reliance on China, Moscow has built a sanctions-adapted system that is resilient but fragile. Here’s a forensic look at who is building what now, and where new chokepoints are emerging.

India’s defense modernization is accelerating, but a growing rift has emerged between the military’s urgent operational needs and the slow, legacy-bound pace of public-sector defense manufacturers. With rising threats and rapid tech evolution, the Services want faster delivery, tighter integration, and hybrid PSU–private innovation. The question now is whether India’s PSUs can keep up.

India’s theatre command debate revolves around one truth: logistics determine victory. From Ladakh to the Northeast, the Army’s ability to sustain forces across extreme terrain makes it central to any future joint structure. Without Army-led logistics, infrastructure integration, and digital fusion, theatre commands risk becoming concepts divorced from operational reality.

India is debating a major military restructuring through theatre commands, but the core question remains: will these reforms strengthen or weaken the Army’s ability to fight and win land wars? As India faces evolving threats on both borders, the Army argues that integration must enhance, not dilute, its central role in national defense.

Pakistan is building a parallel naval reality through AI-generated videos, deepfakes, and synthetic maritime narratives. While its real fleet faces constraints, its digital navy amplifies deterrence, distorts regional perceptions, and risks crisis escalation—raising concerns for India, Europe, and Indo-Pacific stability.

Pakistan’s maritime drug seizures consistently highlight low-level couriers and fishermen, while the brokers who coordinate the trade remain untouched. This pattern exposes a deliberate omission protecting the middlemen who organize shipments along the Makran coast, leaving regional nations to face the fallout of an unbroken narcotics network.

The 2016 Nagrota attack exposed how Pakistan continues to use groups like Jaish-e-Mohammed as strategic proxies. Far from a routine fidayeen strike, it revealed a sophisticated infiltration network, protected leadership, and state-backed intent—highlighting Pakistan’s long-term strategy of calibrated cross-border terrorism.

India has advanced its military space programs, but critical gaps persist, from persistent ISR and tactical SatCom to maritime surveillance and space domain awareness. This opinion-driven analysis argues that India must shift from incremental upgrades to a strategic, multi-orbit, resilient architecture if it wants credible deterrence in a contested Indo-Pacific.

The conflict in Sudan, involving the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), has become one of the worst humanitarian and political crises globally. This military power struggle has caused state collapse, mass displacement, and widespread famine, affecting millions. Beyond Sudan, the crisis threatens regional stability, risking refugee flows, cross-border conflicts, and destabilization in the Horn of Africa's political and economic landscape.

5G NTN modems are rapidly moving from backhaul tools to frontline enablers of multi-domain operations. From convoy V2X to airborne ISR downlinks, these systems are reshaping how modern militaries fight, communicate, and maneuver in contested environments.
