The Pakistani Government has officially designated the Zainebiyoun Brigade, an Iranian-backed Shia militant organization, as a proscribed organization that threatens the country's peace and security. The group has been accused of sending Pakistani Shia Muslims to fight in Syria with support from Iran's IRGC. The ban comes after reports of Zainebiyoun members of Pakistani origin apprehended in international waters carrying weapons for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps.
