Field Marshal Asim Munir's 'Divine Help' Claim: Gen Hasnain Warns of 'Doom' in 2026

In this special broadcast of India First, Executive Editor Gaurav Sawant discusses the escalating rivalry between Saudi Arabia and the UAE, marked by Saudi airstrikes in Mukalla and the UAE’s withdrawal from Yemen. The panel, including Lt Gen Syed Atta Hasnain, Ambassador Anil Trigunayat, Dr. James Dorsey, and Dr. Wael Awad, analyses the impact on the region and Pakistan. A major focus is Pakistan’s Chief of Defence Forces, Field Marshal Asim Munir, who claimed ‘divine help’ during Operation Sindoor against India. Gen Hasnain predicts 2026 could be the ‘year of doom’ for Munir amidst internal and external challenges. The discussion also explores the geopolitical shifts in the Red Sea, the UAE's expanding influence in Pakistan's economy through the Fauji Foundation, and the potential for a new Middle East order involving Israel.
