Key Highlights

  • Pak MP’s question for Asim Munir Nigerian government frees 130 kidnapped Catholic schoolchildren taken by gunmen in NovemberThe TTP’s intensification of the campaign has coincided with the unravelling of the relationship between Pakistan and Afghanistan’s Taliban rulers.
  • In October, the two sides had their worst clashes since the Islamist takeover of Afghanistan in which dozens died and hundreds were injured. With 3,886 killed in 1,047 incidents, the year has been deadliest for Pakistan since 2014, according to South Asia Terrorism Portal (SATP). Along with the TTP, other groups like the Baochistan Liberation Army (BLA) have also ramped up their campaign against Pakistan. While the TTP is primarily active in the country’s northwest, BLA is active in Balochistan province in the country’s southwest where it has been leading the Baloch self-determination movement for decades.
  • While the TTP wants to overthrow the Pakistani state and build in its place a completely sharia-led state, the BLA wants a nation-state for Baloch people outside of Pakistan’s control.
