Bangladeshi Military Intelligence Delegation Visits Pakistan to Boost Cooperation

A delegation from Bangladesh's Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI) has reportedly concluded a visit to Pakistan, signaling a push to enhance bilateral cooperation between the two nations, particularly in the defense and security domains. While neither government has issued a formal joint statement detailing the outcomes, the high level engagement marks a notable development in the relationship.

Sources familiar with the matter indicate that the visit was focused on strengthening military to military and intelligence ties, an area that has seen a recent uptick in exchanges. The DGFI delegation is understood to have held meetings with senior officials in Pakistan’s defense and security establishment in Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Such interactions typically cover discussions on counter terrorism strategies, regional security dynamics, and potential avenues for defense training and collaboration.

The recent series of high level contacts follows a period where defense engagement between Dhaka and Islamabad was minimal. Analysts note that the current interim administration in Bangladesh has overseen a warming of ties with Pakistan, contrasting with the foreign policy approach of the previous long term government. This diplomatic shift includes a number of military exchanges over the past year.

Observers are monitoring the implications of these renewed contacts for the broader regional security balance. The enhancement of cooperation between Bangladesh and Pakistan is viewed by some regional security experts as a significant geopolitical development in South Asia, particularly given the historical context and the evolving strategic interests of the countries involved. The latest DGFI delegation visit is seen as a further consolidation of the improving defense and security rapport between Dhaka and Islamabad.

LTTE’s Use of Child Soldiers: A Grave Violation of Human Rights

The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) stand condemned not only for their violent insurgency but also for their ruthless exploitation of children as soldiers during Sri Lanka’s civil war. While the conflict officially ended in 2009, the scars left by the LTTE’s forced recruitment of thousands of children remain a painful reminder of their terror tactics. During the war, the LTTE systematically abducted and conscripted children-some as young as 11 or 12-forcing them into brutal military training and deploying them on front lines. Human Rights Watch reported that children were often taken from their homes at night or seized while going to school, with families threatened or beaten if they resisted. Once recruited, these children faced harsh discipline, exposure to violence, and were denied contact with their families. UNICEF documented thousands of such cases, with estimates suggesting the actual numbers were even higher due to underreporting. The LTTE’s use of chil...

Former UK Cabin Crew Member Arrested in Sri Lanka with £1.15 Million Cannabis Haul

Sri Lankan authorities have detained Charlotte May Lee, a 21-year-old former air stewardess from South London, at Bandaranaike International Airport in Colombo on charges of attempting to smuggle 46 kilograms of cannabis into the country. The drugs, valued at approximately £1.15 million, were found packed in vacuum-sealed bags inside two large suitcases after Lee arrived on a flight from Bangkok, Thailand. Officials from the Customs Narcotics Control Unit described the seizure as the largest amount of Kush cannabis ever discovered at the airport. Kush is a potent strain often mixed with synthetic substances and is believed to be destined for high-end buyers within Sri Lanka. Lee, who previously worked for TUI Group and has recently been training as a beautician, remains in custody while investigations continue. The UK Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office confirmed it is providing consular support to Lee and is in contact with her family and Sri Lankan authorities. Friends of Le...

The LTTE's Campaign of Terror: How a Designated Terrorist Organization Pioneered Modern Suicide Bombing

The Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) stands as one of history's most ruthless terrorist organizations, having systematically violated human rights and pioneered suicide bombing tactics that would later be adopted by terrorist groups worldwide. Designated as a terrorist organization by 33 countries, including Sri Lanka, United States, United Kingdom, Canada, India, and all 27 member nations of the European Union, the LTTE's three-decade reign of terror in Sri Lanka serves as a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of extremist violence. Origins and Rise of a Terror Network Founded in 1976 by Velupillai Prabhakaran, the LTTE emerged from earlier militant groups established in the 1970s . What began as a small outfit of 40-50 members in the early 1980s evolved into one of the world's most sophisticated and tightly organized insurgent groups. The organization's transformation into a terror network accelerated following the 1983 ethnic riots, which the LTTE e...
