Following the intense four-day India-Pakistan clash in May 2025, Pakistan’s military saw a dramatic rise in domestic approval, with 92% of citizens expressing increased support, according to a Gallup Pakistan survey. The conflict involved missile and drone exchanges and ended with a ceasefire brokered by former U.S. President Donald Trump. General Syed Asim Munir, credited for his leadership during the standoff, was promoted to field marshal. This boost reinforces the military’s dominant role in Pakistan’s political landscape and strengthens its influence among the population. (Reuters)
