A particularly significant point raised by the DG ISPR was the necessity of civilian government support for any successful counterterrorism strategy.

THE United Nations has warned that 2024 could well be the hottest year on record. The rapidly rising temperatures mean glaciers melting, rising sea levels, more flooding as well as major losses in agricultural harvests. Pakistan has been grappling with social, economic and political instability since its inception. Consequently, owing to rampant unemployment, malnutrition, socio-political instability and inflation, it is no surprise that climate change is not at the forefront of public discourse. Bloomberg reports that Pakistan, as the fifth largest cotton producer in the world, is witnessing its cotton crop wilt due to extremely high temperatures.

A “robust and flexible” defence industry lies at the centre of Nato’s “core business” — deterrence and defence. Over the years, Nato has become a tool for the US to drive up the sales of its defence companies. Nato’s expansion and Israel’s relentless brutality against Palestinians too are opportunities for the US to push the demand of its arms sales. And Nato is helping the US to realise its goal of boosting its arms sales. With $1.3 trillion of defence spending — mostly by the US, thanks to massive defence sales — Nato is by far the world’s largest military alliance.

Solar radiation may have an impact on Earth's deep interior, according to a collaborative study by researchers from China and Romania. According to the researchers, solar radiation varies with latitude, creating temperature gradients on the sea surface that influence the distribution of marine life. This process significantly affects the redox state of arc magma. They examined tiny melt inclusions within olivine minerals and bulk rock data to determine the redox state of arc magma. Understanding the spatial and temporal distribution of redox state at global subduction zones has significant implications for predicting the locations and availability of these critical resources.
