A symposium on fifth generation warfare and its consequences for national security was recently held in Karachi by the Pakistan Army. Attendees received a thorough briefing on the nature of contemporary information warfare and propaganda efforts targeting Pakistan throughout the program.
A lengthy Q&A session with the participants helped to clarify the several aspects that are contributing to these new security issues. The session, according to the students, increased their understanding of the value of fact-checking material before spreading it.
Participants underlined the importance of these training sessions and demanded that they be held on a regular basis to improve people’s capacity to spot misleading propaganda. Academics compared the disclosures from the seminar to a kind of civic duty, pointing out how crucial it is to dispel false information.
