A UN Security Council report dated January 29 has detailed the activities of jihadist movements in Afghanistan, including ISIS and al-Qaeda. The report suggests that al-Qaeda has established 8 new training camps, 5 madrasas, and a facilitation network into Iran, despite the Taliban's claims of having significantly reduced the threat posed by ISIS's local affiliate, ISKP. The Taliban have strongly refuted the allegations of al-Qaeda camps in Afghanistan and any association with them, as well as the UN report's implications of collusion and operational alliance with al-Qaeda and Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan for attacks on Pakistan. Additionally, the report notes the growing influence of the Islamic State with newer tactics. Meanwhile, the Pakistani Taliban (TTP) have denied having a foreign agenda or connections with other groups, rejecting the UN report's findings.
