The report also highlights how other terrorist outfits are using the TTP cover to operate in the war-torn country. In reality, the report has endorsed Pakistan’s stance that the TTP was operating out of Afghanistan. “Member states assess that the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan is gaining momentum in its operations against Pakistan,” it says. According to the UNSC report, the TTP was focused on high-value targets in border areas and soft targets in urban ones. One member state noted the possibility of al Qaeda in Indian Subcontinent (AQIS) and the TTP merging.
