The United States Institute of Peace (USIP) has issued a warning that Afghan territory is being used by terrorist groups to target Pakistan.
The report highlights the growing regional threat posed by these organizations, which operate with apparent support from the Afghan Taliban.
According to the USIP, despite repeated warnings, the Afghan Taliban has not cut ties with terrorist groups like the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), which conducts attacks on Pakistani soil.
The report indicates that the Taliban provides these groups with financial support, arms, weapons, and secret hideouts.
