After the historical return of Afghan Taliban in Afghanistan in 2021, TTP has strengthened its influence and foothold in Afghanistan. To survive #Pakistan’s continuous military operations, #TTP relocated itself to #Afghanistan embedding itself in to the Taliban’s insurgency & adopted a few strategies that are vital to understand in order to counter them.
In addition to that #TTP seems to acquire modern #American/NATO weapons against Pakistan that foreign forces left in #Afghanistan. Since #Taliban takeover of #Kabul, TTP has claimed to have united 20 plus militant groups from tribal districts. Hundreds of TTP prisoners were also released from Kabul’s prisons, who were detained by US forces and former #Afghan govt. This include senior TTP commander Emir Mawlvi Faqir Muhmmad Bajauri and former spokesperson Mufti Khalid Bulti who were arrested in 2013 and 2015 in Afghanistan, respectively.
Although officially Afghan #Taliban discourages the fighters to join #TTP’s war against Pakistan and Afghan Taliban distances itself from TTP’s terror activities but lower rank Taliban fighters have contributed in TTP’s war against #Pakistan in one way or the other. Taliban victory in Afghanistan has emboldened and strengthened against them in #Afghanistan and enjoys a level of “strategic depth” in Afghanistan.
In the aftermath of the fall of #Kabul to Taliban, the #TTP has adopted a different strategy to further enhance their influence and foothold in the region. This includes merging of different militant groups, restructuring and reorganizing TTP’s whole organization and hierarchy, mirroring the exact same organizational structure of Afghan #Taliban.
The third strategy is to grow its terror operational activities and strengthening its social media propaganda operations in a very similar fashion to Afghan #Taliban, this include professionally edited videos, depicting #TTP fighters in military uniform rather than traditional clothes and use of modern #US/NATO weapons.
FxCaFR3aIAUUHO2

The #TTP's resurgence and growing strength, fueled by the Taliban's victory in #Afghanistan, pose significant challenges to the security and stability of #Pakistan. Understanding the TTP's trajectory is crucial for assessing the evolving threat landscape in the region./end

Post-Cease Fire: ‘Relocation’ of Pakistani Taliban In Afghanistan Spurs New Hope For Fragile Regional Peace

(...) The Government of Pakistan has been persistently demanding the relocation of the TTP militants away from its border region with Afghanistan due to the recent surge in attacks across the South Asian country after the TTP broke a fragile ceasefire agreement with the government in November last year.

Earlier this month, Mujahid [spokesperson for the Taliban administration in Afghanistan], while speaking to The Khorasan Diary (TKD), had confirmed that a decision had been made to relocate the militants upon Pakistan’s request.

“We will relocate only those refugees from the Durand Line to other [Afghan] provinces who pose a threat to Pakistan. Those posing no threat to Pakistan will not have their status affected,” he had said.

(...) There are an estimated 43,700 Pakistanis living in Afghanistan, mainly in eastern Paktia, Khost, Paktika, and Kunar provinces. These include various groups of the Pakistani Taliban, including prominent factions like the Hafiz Gul Bahadar and the TTP.

At the same time, the recent visit of the Taliban interim government interior minister, Sirajuddin Haqqani, to the northern provinces of Afghanistan might suggest his involvement in the relocation process of the TTP, in addition to the recent increase of the Islamic State Khorasan Province’s (ISKP) activities in the north of the country.

During his trip, Haqqani addressed government officials and segments of the Afghan society in Samangan, Kunduz, Baghlan, Balkh, Takhar, Jawzjan, Sar-e-Pul, and Faryab provinces, repeatedly downplaying issues of ethnic fault lines within the Emirate’s policies and stressing the unity of the government.

Northern provinces have been experiencing major attacks claimed by ISKP, specifically in Balkh and Badakhshan, where high-ranking Taliban officials have been killed.

Furthermore, official sources from the Afghan Taliban told TKD correspondent from Kabul that Taliban authorities intend to use TTP fighters as proxies against the anti-Taliban National Resistance Front of Afghanistan (NRF), particularly against Ahmad Masood. The NRF has vowed that it would “vehemently reject” any such attempt by the Taliban administration seeking the relocation of Pakistani Taliban to the country’s north.

(...) While analysts are assessing the proposed decision as significant in terms of the Taliban government’s readiness to address neighboring countries’ security concerns, they also are skeptical if the decision will actually be implemented and if it will be effective in the long run.

“The decision by the Taliban government to relocate Pakistani refugees away from the border, if implemented, will go some way in addressing Pakistani concerns regarding the use of these refugee camps by the TTP,” (...)

(...)However, even if fully implemented, it seems unlikely that this decision will stop TTP-related violence inside Pakistan. Therefore, it is hard to imagine that this decision alone will harken the end of testy relations between the two neighbors over the TTP.” (...)
