In Pakistan, terrorist attacks have become more frequent
In recent years, terrorist attacks have become more frequent in Pakistan. Attacks most often take place in the provinces of Haiber-Pakhtunchi and Belujan, bordering Afghanistan.
In both provinces, armed groups attacked the Pakistani security forces and civilians under the pretext of protecting the rights of ethnic minorities – Pashtun and Beluji.
Islamabad claims that Pakistani Taliban (TTP) organize attacks from Afghanistan. In Kabul, these accusations are rejected.
The attacks are also made by the Group “Liberation Army of Belujistan (OAB), requiring the separation of the Belujistan province from Pakistan and the transfer of Beluji.
