Israel launched powerful airstrikes on Houthi-controlled ports in Hodeidah and Al-Salif, Yemen, in retaliation for continued missile attacks toward Israeli territory.

Pakistan ‘Rewards’ Munir With Field Marshal Rank After Crushing Defeat Against India in OP Sindoor [Video]

Pakistan ‘Rewards’ Munir With Field Marshal Rank After Crushing Defeat Against India in OP Sindoor

Days after a ceasefire agreement with India, Pakistan’s government has promoted Army Chief General Asim Munir to the rank of Field Marshal—the second in the nation's history. The move follows Operation Sindoor and Pakistan’s war-time efforts led by Munir, who was praised for “high strategy and courage.” With this largely ceremonial yet politically powerful title, Munir further consolidates military influence over Pakistan’s civilian leadership. Backed by President Zardari and celebrated as a defender of the homeland, Munir dedicated his promotion to martyrs, veterans, and the nation. #AsimMunir #FieldMarshal #PakistanArmy #OperationSindoor #IndiaPakistan #MilitaryPromotion #PakistanPolitics #Ceasefire #MunirPromotion #MilitaryDominance #Zardari #ISPR #PakistanNews #ArmyChief #OperationBunyanumMarsoos #PakIndiaTensions #DefenseLeadership #MunirRises #Veterans #SouthAsiaPolitics #MilitaryInfluence #StrategicCommand #PMOStatement #ISIChief #PakMilitary #WarLeadership #GeoPolitics #NationalSecurity #PakistanUpdates #HafizEQuranGeneral Also Read No Air Defence Guns Deployed In Golden Temple Premises During Operation Sindoor, Says Army :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/no-air-defence-guns-deployed-in-golden-temple-premises-during-operation-sindoor-says-army-4158973.html?ref=DMDesc Khalistani Separatist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun Appears In Pak News Channels, Raises 'Naara-e-Takbeer' Slogan :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/khalistani-separatist-gurpatwant-singh-pannun-appears-in-pakistan-news-channels-raises-naara-e-tak-4158395.html?ref=DMDesc Ghosts of Ghazi: Why Pakistan Navy Still Can’t Sail Past 1971 :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/ghosts-of-ghazi-why-pakistan-navy-still-can-t-sail-past-1971-4157341.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~
