A new and undeniable piece of evidence has surfaced, once again exposing the nexus between the Kharijite terrorists and the Afghan Taliban. A video recently circulating on social media shows multiple graves in Afghanistan’s Paktika province adorned with the flags of the so-called “Kharijite” group, revealing the alarming extent of their presence and glorification inside Afghanistan.
If, as claimed, Afghanistan is not providing sanctuary and training to these militants, why then are their graves openly marked and honored on Afghan soil?
According to available information, these graves publicly presented as those of the outlawed Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) fighters in fact belong to Afghan Taliban militants who were dispatched between March and August 2025 to carry out terrorist attacks inside Pakistan, where they were ultimately killed.
Shockingly, their graves have been constructed under the TTP’s flags, and the Taliban administration has even built memorials in their honor. This act effectively glorifies those responsible for the killing of innocent civilians and children in Pakistan, exposing the Taliban regime’s duplicity and direct involvement in fostering terrorism under the guise of “jihad.”
Once again, it becomes abundantly clear that the Afghan Taliban continue to employ terrorism as an instrument of proxy warfare against Pakistan, using extremist ideology to justify the slaughter of innocent people across the border.
This is not the first time that tangible evidence of the TTP–Afghan Taliban alliance has come to light. On September 29, 2025, when internet services were abruptly suspended across Afghanistan, all of TTP’s digital propaganda platforms simultaneously went offline. These online outlets had been operating to spread anti-state narratives within Pakistan and to radicalize its youth — a sudden shutdown that unmistakably revealed that these networks were being directly operated from Afghan territory.
Furthermore, the United Nations Security Council’s recent report has reaffirmed the presence of Al-Qaeda, ISIS-Khorasan, Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan, and the East Turkestan Islamic Movement inside Afghanistan. The report estimates that nearly 6,000 TTP militants are currently based there, enjoying safe havens and full patronage of the Taliban regime, from where they orchestrate cross-border attacks into Pakistan.
It is therefore imperative that the international community acknowledge Afghanistan’s dangerous role in enabling and protecting transnational terrorist networks. The continued use of Afghan soil as a nursery of terrorism poses a grave threat not only to Pakistan’s security but also to regional and global stability.
The evidence is now unmistakable: behind every act of terror and subversion by the Kharijites in Pakistan lies the direct hand of the Afghan Taliban government. The time has come for the world to confront this reality and take concrete measures to prevent Afghanistan from remaining a safe haven for global terrorism.
