Islamabad raises Afghan terrorism concerns at UN Security Council
Pakistan raised concerns at the UN Security Council about ongoing terrorist group operations in Afghanistan, including Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan and Islamic State's Khorasan chapter, which it claims use Afghan safe havens to threaten regional security. The remarks coincided with discussions on Kashmir, where Pakistan accused India of 'state terrorism' following the 2019 revocation of the region’s special status.
