Mark-e Haq: When the Enemy Found No Place to Hide
Exactly one year ago today, Pakistan’s armed forces delivered a crushing response to enemy aggression through the joint operation “Maka-e Haq” — a response regarded as unparalleled in modern history.
During the operation, the Pakistan Air Force established aerial superiority, the Pakistan Navy encircled the enemy at sea, and the Pakistan Army stood like a wall of steel on the borders, crushing hostile ambitions.
It was during this battle that Pakistan demonstrated its new defense capabilities to the world, while the military leadership introduced new strategic defense doctrines alongside the revival of the rank of Field Marshal.
