Rising terrorism threat in Pakistan: UN report

A new United Nations report highlights an increase in the terrorism threat in Pakistan.

According to the report, Pakistan faces threats from Fitnah-ul-Khawarij (TTP) and other militants who have sought refuge in Afghanistan, with Fitnah-ul-Khawarij (TTP) intensifying its attacks in Pakistan.

The UN report also raises concerns about Fitnah Al-Khawarij (TTP) potentially increasing cooperation with Taliban and Al-Qaeda.

In 2024, Pakistan has witnessed an increase in terrorism. The South Asia Terrorism Portal reveals 300 terrorism-related deaths so far this year.

During the first six months of this year alone, dozens of Pakistani security personnel have been killed in militant attacks and counterterrorism operations.
