Theatre Commander of the Counter-insurgency Operation, Operation Hadin Kai, Maj Gen Christopher Musa, in an opening address at the parley on Tuesday at Maimalari Cantonment, said the event should provide an opportunity for reporters and news managers in the theatre to discuss areas of conflicts in media and military roles for the sustenance of peace in the region.
