On this India First special report, Managing Editor Gaurav Sawant anchors a discussion on escalating regional instability. The program covers the spiking tensions between Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, which intensified after Saudi Arabia bombed UAE assets in Yemen’s Mukalla port on December 30. An expert panel, including Lt Gen Syed Atta Hasnain and Dr. James Dorsey, dissects the strategic divergence between the Gulf powers. The report also examines the implications for Pakistan, with analysts suggesting Army Chief Asim Munir is caught between the two nations and that 2026 could be a challenging year for him. Additionally, the broadcast features breaking news from Bangladesh, where Hindu businessman Khokon Chandra Das was attacked and set on fire in Shariatpur. Foreign Affairs Editor Pranay Upadhyay reports on the context of rising targeted violence against minorities in Dhaka.
