<\/p>\nThe United Nation has acknowledged the action taken by Pakistan government against individuals engaged in terrorist activities, adding that terror group Tehreek-e-Taliban\u00a0Pakistan\u00a0(TTP) was responsible for over “100 cross-border attacks within three months last year”.<\/p>\n
In its 24th report to the United Nation Security Council (UNSC), the UN monitoring team said that\u00a0Pakistan\u00a0has consistently highlighted the terrorism threat from\u00a0TTP.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The report pointed out the arrests made in\u00a0Pakistan\u00a0of “individuals engaging in terrorism financing and the freezing of the assets of designated individuals and entities\u201d.<\/p>\n
Diplomats noted that the UN acknowledgement comes at a time when India continues to blame\u00a0Pakistan\u00a0for inaction against the designated groups.<\/p>\n
Reporting on the activities of the\u00a0TTP, the UN report showed its concern over the reunification of the splinter groups of\u00a0TTP\u00a0which took place in Afghanistan.<\/p>\n
The report said that five entities pledged allegiance to\u00a0TTP\u00a0in July and August last year, including the Shehryar Mehsud group, Jamaatul Ahrar, Hizbul Ahrar, the Amjad Farooqi group and the Usman Saifullah group (formerly known as Lashkar-e-Jhangvi).<\/p>\n
The report cautioned that the merger of\u00a0TTP\u00a0has enhanced the threat of terrorism in\u00a0Pakistan\u00a0and the region as it has increased the strength of the terrorist group.<\/p>\n
\u201cTTP was responsible for more than 100 cross-border attacks between July and October 2020,” the report said and added that the terrorist groups fighting strength ranged between 2,500 and 6,000 militants.<\/p>\n
Last year, Pakistan handed over a dossier to UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres on the Indian sponsorship of TTP and JuA.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
