Information Warfare: How Narratives & Perception Shape Modern Conflict | Lt Gen Hasnain |DEFCON 2026

Wars are no longer fought on the battlefield alone. In the age of hybrid and grey-zone warfare, information, narratives and perception have become powerful tools that can shape conflicts without a conventional military confrontation.At CNN-News18’s DEFCON 2026 Defence Conclave, Lt Gen S.A. Hasnain (Retd), defence expert, explains the growing importance of information warfare and how it operates within modern hybrid and grey-zone conflicts.Drawing on Sun Tzu’s emphasis on deception, Lt Gen Hasnain examines how information can influence public perception, shape strategic narratives and affect decision-making during conflict. He also explains why strategic communication, information awareness and the ability to counter competing narratives are increasingly important elements of national security.From battlefield operations to the digital information environment, modern conflicts increasingly involve efforts to influence what people see, believe and understand. Information warfare can therefore operate alongside conventional military capabilities, cyber operations, diplomacy and other instruments of state power.Watch this insightful session from DEFCON 2026 as Lt Gen S.A. Hasnain breaks down the changing nature of warfare and explains why controlling narratives and communicating strategically have become central to modern defence and security. n18oc_indiaNews18 Mobile App - https://onelink.to/desc-youtube

SIR Row: Congress' Rashid Alvi Slams ECI Over SIR Notices | ‘Fully Under BJP’s Control’ | News18

ECI-SIR Row: Congress spokesperson Rashid Alvi has criticised the Election Commission’s handling of voter eligibility during a heated debate, alleging that the “ECI is fully under BJP’s control.”The discussion comes amid the ongoing Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls in Delhi, where prominent figures including BJP veteran L K Advani, S Jaishankar, Arvind Kejriwal and others were issued notices over discrepancies in their voter records.The notices triggered a political debate over voter eligibility and the functioning of the Election Commission.

Most prominent cases, including Advani’s, were subsequently verified and their names reserved for inclusion in the final electoral roll.Watch the full debate and the latest developments in the ECI-SIR row, voter-roll controversy and Advani notice issue. n18oc_indiaNews18 Mobile App - https://onelink.to/desc-youtube
