With Friction Mounting, Pakistan Slams Taliban For Abetting Terror Groups
14:06 18.07.2023 (Updated: 15:23 18.07.2023) For months, Islamabad has blamed the Taliban* for aiding anti-Pakistan terrorist groups like the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP)**.
The
Pakistani Army has accused
Kabul of abetting terrorism in the neighboring nation, saying that the
Taliban regime was providing safe sanctuary to banned terror organizations like the
TTP to carry out raids against Pakistani establishments and security forces.
In a statement, the Pakistan military's media arm, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), noted that extremist bodies working against the country's interests were being offered the latest arms and ammunition, enabling them to unleash a campaign of terror against Pakistan.
"The sanctuaries and liberty of action available to the terrorists of proscribed TTP and other groups of that ilk in a neighboring country and availability of latest weapons to the terrorists were noted as major reasons impacting security of Pakistan," the
ISPR stated.
However, this isn't the first time Islamabad has raised the issue of terrorism emanating from Afghanistan.
Before the military top brass met on Monday, the Pakistani Army previously urged the Taliban government to eliminate terrorist hideouts in Afghanistan.
Pak Defence Minister Warns Taliban
Besides the army, Pakistan Defence Minister
Khawaja Asif had hurled similar allegations at Afghanistan, warning the Taliban of a military campaign against TTP militants if Kabul failed to take action against them.
"If that is not done, at some point we'll have to […] resort to some measures, which will definitely — wherever [terrorists] are, their sanctuaries on Afghan soil — we'll have to hit them. We'll have to hit them because we cannot tolerate this situation for long," he stressed.
Taliban officials, however, have rejected the allegations not just once but on several occasions, escalating tensions between the two neighbors.
