Pakistan has recently uncovered undeniable evidence that Afghanistan is being used as a base for launching terrorist attacks within its borders. This discovery adds to a longstanding issue of terrorism originating from across the Afghan border.
The Pakistani government has consistently presented these compelling facts to the Afghan interim authorities. Despite providing concrete evidence, the Afghan government has not taken significant action against these foreign terrorists, who pose a severe threat to regional stability.
On August 28th, Afghanistan’s Army Chief, Fasihuddin, asserted that Pakistan had not presented concrete evidence of terrorist activities.
However, just a day earlier, on August 27th, Pakistani forces captured Abdullah, an Afghan national attempting to infiltrate from Afghanistan during Operation Thirteen.
Abdullah, identified as a foreign terrorist, was apprehended while trying to cross the border. His capture and subsequent confession have further reinforced the evidence of Afghanistan’s involvement in harboring terrorists.
In his confession, Abdullah disclosed that he is from Lalpura district in Nangarhar province and had received terrorist training there. He was instructed to conduct attacks across various regions of Pakistan following his training.
Abdullah revealed that he was part of a group of 34 individuals, including an IED expert, who had planned attacks in Pakistan. They were armed with a significant amount of explosives. He also detailed an attack in the Star Banda area that resulted in 10 injuries, 15 fatalities, and the escape of remaining commanders.
Abdullah surrendered to Pakistani forces after the death of his comrades, further corroborating Pakistan’s claims about the terrorist activities being orchestrated from Afghan soil.
