Azhad

Azhad registers as a tense, strategic sector immediately west of the cease‑fire line where a two‑corps‑sized Indian force has pushed across. In the Situation Room, Azhad appears on briefing maps as a thin, red-streaked corridor—an alarm point for planners, diplomats, and commanders. The name carries the metallic tang of urgency: clipped radio reports, satellite overlays, and terse cable traffic, all converging on a place whose significance is geopolitical rather than topographic.
