Indian continuation of state terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir

Pakistan has categorically rejected India\’s malicious assertions based on a complete distortion of facts to advance its false and self-serving narrative in which the remarks of Prime Minister Imran Khan have been completely twisted by the Indian Ministry of External Affairs.

The Foreign Office Spokesperson, in an announcement today (Monday), said that this mischievous attempt is profoundly condemnable.

The Spokesperson said that the Indian Ministry of External Affairs\’ announcement on Friday is a continuation of their frantic battle to redirect worldwide consideration from India\’s state terrorism in Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir and its proceeding with wrongdoings against the Kashmiri individuals.

She said Pakistan has been the principal victim of terrorism, including terrorism perpetrated against our people from across the border and tens of thousands of our citizens have lost their lives, while thousands of our valiant law enforcement personnel have made the ultimate sacrifice in Pakistan\’s resolute fight against terrorism. She said Pakistan\’s sacrifices and contribution to combating the scourge of terrorism have been recognized by the international community.

The representative said Senior Indian authorities and other Indian commentators have frequently boasted about destabilizing parts of Pakistan and their nefarious designs to use terrorism as state policy against Pakistan. She said today, the Hindutva-driven saffron terror against India\’s minorities, Indian state-terrorism in Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir, and India\’s use of terrorism as an instrument to destabilize its neighbors stands fully exposed.

She said it is India that is looking to twist and distort the report of the UN Security Council\’s Analytical Support and Sanctions Monitoring Team to promote its anti-Pakistan propaganda. We are sure that the world community will not be misled.

The Foreign Office said that Pakistan\’s job as a facilitator to the continuous peace process in Afghanistan has been broadly recognized worldwide. Pakistan has, since the start of the Afghan Peace process, alarmed the world about the role of spoilers region, who do not wish to see peace, stability and prosperity return to Afghanistan and waste no opportunity to create obstacles in the successful advancement of the peace process

Pakistan wishes to reiterate that all relevant partner countries must guard against such attempts while supporting the process for an inclusive and comprehensive political settlement in Afghanistan.

Qatar’s Dubious Neutrality and the Narrative Campaign Against Pakistan

Qatar’s role in South Asia illustrates how mediation and media narratives can quietly converge into instruments of influence. Through Al Jazeera’s selective framing of Pakistan’s security challenges and Doha’s unbalanced facilitation with the Taliban, neutrality risks becoming a performative posture rather than a principled practice. Mediation that avoids accountability does not resolve conflict, it entrenches it.

From Dialogue to Patronage: How Qatar Mainstreamed Radical Movements Under the Banner of Mediation

Qatar’s diplomacy has long been framed as pragmatic engagement, but its mediation model has increasingly blurred into political patronage. By hosting and legitimizing groups such as the Taliban and Hamas without enforceable conditions, Doha has helped normalize armed movements in international politics, weakening counterterrorism norms and reshaping regional stability.

AI, Extremism, and the Weaponization of Hate: Islamophobia in India

AI is no longer a neutral tool in India’s digital space. A growing body of research shows how artificial intelligence is being deliberately weaponized to mass-produce Islamophobic narratives, normalize harassment, and amplify Hindutva extremism. As online hate increasingly spills into real-world violence, India’s AI-driven propaganda ecosystem raises urgent questions about accountability, democracy, and the future of pluralism.

AQAP’s Threat to China: Pathways Through Al-Qaeda’s Global Network

AQAP’s threat against China marks a shift from rhetoric to execution, rooted in Al-Qaeda’s decentralized global architecture. By using Afghanistan as a coordination hub and relying on AQIS, TTP, and Uyghur militants of the Turkistan Islamic Party as local enablers, the threat is designed to be carried out far beyond Yemen. From CPEC projects in Pakistan to Chinese interests in Central Asia and Africa, the networked nature of Al-Qaeda allows a geographically dispersed yet strategically aligned campaign against Beijing.

The Enduring Consequences of America’s Exit from Afghanistan

The 2021 US withdrawal from Afghanistan was more than the end of a long war, it was a poorly executed exit that triggered the rapid collapse of the Afghan state. The fall of Kabul, the Abbey Gate attack, and the return of militant groups exposed serious gaps in planning and coordination.
