Condemnation Statement by Democratic Students Federation (DSF) against @hecpk's ban on Holi celebrations in Pakistani universities:

(1/10)
We strongly condemn @hecpk for its decision to ban Holi celebrations, even after witnessing successful celebrations at Quaid-I-Azam University. This ban infringes upon students' fundamental rights and disregards religious pluralism and cultural diversity in our country.

(2/10)
Pakistan is a diverse nation incorporating cultural richness. The recent celebration of Holi at Quaid-I-Azam University clearly demonstrated the acceptance and harmony among students from different backgrounds. Such events foster an environment of inclusivity and respect.

A 111 años de hundirse en el atlántico, partido en 2, con la proa y popa en diferentes sitios, y haberse llevado 1.503 almas en el año 1912, el #Titanic quiere seguir cobrando vidas.

8 cosas curiosas sobre el mini submarino #Titan desaparecido con 5 tripulantes.

[Hilo] 🧶

1/14
1- Los restos del Titanic se encuentran a 3.800 m de profundidad en el océano atlántico en una zona llamada Cañón del Titanic, a unos 640 km al sureste de Terranova, Canadá. La proa y la popa están separadas por una distancia de 800 m.
Acá la coordenadas exactas: 👇

2/14
2- A esa profundidad de 3.800 m, la presión es de 38.396,34 Kpa (kilopascales). Eso es ~200 veces la presión de aire que llevan los neumáticos de un auto sedan convencional R14 (28 PSI - 193 Kpa). 😬
Pocos submarinos en el mundo llegan a esa profundidad sin sufrir daños. 💥

As the #Taliban continue to claim moving #TTP fighters to western #Afghanistan, TTP fighters have been confirmed in northern AFG, today the head of district intelligence of the Taliban’s Main Intelligence Directorate (GID) can under attack in #Badakhshah province.
For those unfamiliar with #Badakhshah provincial borders… Image
Another important factor to keep in mind is the #geological value of #Badakhshah province.

This is of key importance to #China’s investment into minerals in #Afghanistan. Image

Some interesting reports coming out of #Afghanistan over the past few days:

- roughly 2,000 #Taliban suicide bombers have been moved to the #Iran|ian border since the end of May.
- #ISKP has also started moving their fighters to northern #Afghanistan, according to sources within an anti-#Taliban group. They are being moved to #Badakhshan, #Takhar and some others.

Apparently, there are both @CIA and #ISI fingerprints on this.
- #Taliban are moving its fighters closer to the #Tajikistan border. Fighters are also moving to the #Badakhshan province, bordering #Tajikistan.

- #TTP have become so emboldened to expand their operations around #Pakistan, including new waliyats in #Balochistan & #Punjab.

Thread- WILL PAKISTAN DEFAULT OR NOT? Apparently, the biggest topic in Pakistan’s economy, to which everyone seems to have taken a liking, is the specter of Pakistan’s economic default. To be honest, it’s getting a bit boring by now, especially given that this issue has been 1/n
relentlessly dragged since PDM Govt. took over last year.The chances of a default last year, around this same time,were quiet high given the external and internal conditions. But Pakistan staved that off. Suddenly,out of nowhere,the issue has again gained substantial traction 2/n
, mainly due to commentary on it from some ‘well-known experts’.The publication of Khurram Hussain’s hard-to-comprehend article in DAWN dawn.com/news/1759654/s… a few days ago (link) got the tongues wagging full-time, profusely praised by none other than Atif Mian, arguably 3/n

Let's take this thread into more context for those outside the region, and those unfamiliar with the #TTP operations in #Swat.

The #TTP typically move through 2 routes:

- from #Afghanistan to #Elum in #Buner to either of their bases in #Ghat, south of #MalamJabba.
The 2nd route is from #Kunar, #Afghanistan through #LowerDir or #Bajaur to #GhatPeochar, the former stronghold of the #TTP during #Fazlullah's occupation of #Swat.

It was also one of the most difficult battle is the fight to reclaim Swat from the #terrorists.
We know of both police and military operations on going in areas including #GhatPeochar, mountains around #MalamJabba, #Charbagh, and #Banjot.

Le #Pakistan paie en #yuan la première cargaison de pétrole de #Russie
Le Pakistan a payé la première livraison de pétrole russe en monnaie chinoise, écrit Reuters citant le ministre du pétrole Musadiq Malik.

Il s'agit d'un changement majeur dans la politique de paiement du Pakistan dominée par le dollar, a déclaré l'agence.

Le fait que la #Russie s'était mise d'accord avec le Pakistan sur l'approvisionnement en pétrole est devenu connu en janvier. Image
La partie pakistanaise a ensuite indiqué qu'elle prévoyait d'acheter plus de 35% du volume total des importations de pétrole en provenance de Russie. Image

The #TTP occupation in #Swat is significantly more than is being reported in the domestic media.

Many villages are under TTP control, and search operations have been on-going for more than 5 months.

It is no surprise that the TTP has returned to Swat for us @commandeleven.
For the past 3 years, we have repeatedly informed and warned that the TTP presence was growing and their influence was increasing.

Deaf ears.

We have repeatedly argued against the negotiating table, because it is a sign of weakness.

Why should we negotiate?
The news of Gen. #FaizHameed's deal to hand over parts of #KPK to #TTP, in return for peace for the country - that is accepting defeat and emboldening the enemy.

Is it any surprise that there was a significant uptick in violence from December onwards, when TTP walked away again?
