Iran reimposes control over Strait of Hormuz as ships report gunfire

A handful of oil and gas tankers crossed the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday during a brief reopening, tracking data showed, but others retreated and two were reportedly attacked as Iran closed the route again. The toing and froing over the strait cast doubt on US President Donald Trump’s optimism the day before, that a peace deal to end the US-Israeli war with Iran was “very close”. Iran reversed its pledge to reopen the strait to commercial traffic during a ceasefire in the war to protest an ongo...

Iran defends limits on Strait of Hormuz passage

The Islamic Republic once again shut the strategic waterway due to what it described as US “piracy” Iran said the renewed restrictions on maritime traffic through the Strait of Hormuz are justified under international law and necessary to counter hostile actions, Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baqaei has said in an interview with RT. Iranian military officials said on Saturday that Tehran had reasserted “strict control” over the strategic route, which carries about 20...

Addressing OOSC

A highly ambitious plan to enrol half of the 25.1 million out-of-school children in Pakistan by 2030 has just been undertaken by the Sindh government in collaboration with UNICEF. The move aims to tackle larger issues such as poverty, child labour, gender discrimination and access to education over the next five years to improve the country's literacy. It goes without saying that 'addressing' issues like poverty, discrimination and the like is a highly simplified way to take charge o...

HIV uptick

Hospitals are meant to be places of cure, not corridors where life-altering infections are silently passed on. The surge in paediatric HIV cases across Karachi strips away any illusion that this is an isolated medical anomaly. It is, instead, the consequence of a healthcare system that continues to tolerate unsafe practices despite knowing their cost. Figures emerging from the Sindh Infectious Diseases Hospital and Research Centre and Indus Hospital point to a disturbing escalation. Admissions...

Shuttle diplomacy

Pakistan's mediation efforts to broker perpetual peace between the United States and Iran are now universally acknowledged. It is a marvellous achievement to influence the arch-rivals to get to the table after a destructive onslaught of 40 days that pushed the Middle East to the brink of a disaster, and threatened a global food and energy crisis. Islamabad was there in the midst at a time when world capitals were getting introspective and keeping their fingers crossed. Field Marshal Asim Mu...

Know your enemy

If you know yourself and know your enemy, you will not fear the results of 100 battles. It is the most quoted military maxim in recorded history. It is also, without exception, the most ignored one. We keep fighting the hundred battles. Consider Iran. The US has been grossly misinterpreting that nation for almost 47 years. All the sanctions, all the assassinations, all the ultimatums have been based upon the same false premise, that Iran is a Western rational actor, that pressure yields resul...

Energy crisis unplugged

If you were to ask people across the country what they are frustrated with most, the answer is quite easy and, most importantly, unanimous: electricity. Not only are they frustrated with the load-shedding they are going through these days, but they are also frustrated with the bills. It is a strange sort of unfairness, but one must understand that this is not how it is supposed to be. There are a number of statistics that explain why people are frustrated with the situation. For instance, Pakis...

The money is there; Pakistan just can't use It

A familiar pattern defines Pakistan's climate trajectory: disasters strike with increasing intensity, pledges follow with urgency, yet the financial systems required to convert those pledges into resilience remain weak. From devastating floods to prolonged heatwaves and mounting agricultural stress, climate risk is no longer theoretical but an everyday reality. The real uncertainty lies in whether Pakistan can develop a climate finance system capable of responding with the necessary scale, s...
