False flag operations, media warfare, and deepening internal rifts, former Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar ul Haq Kakar takes us inside the battles Pakistan is fighting today: on its borders, within its institutions, and across the national imagination.

As global attention stays fixated on Gaza, a new geopolitical standoff may already be brewing across Kashmir and Balochistan. Add to that the uncertain but looming return of Imran Khan, and what you have is a perfect storm of history, politics, and power.
