Around 15,000 Taliban fighters are marching towards Pakistan after Pakistani airstrikes in Afghanistan killed dozens, mostly women and children. The Afghan Taliban has condemned the airstrikes, vowing retaliation. Pakistan's attacks targeted the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) in eastern Afghanistan, escalating tensions. This conflict highlights Pakistan’s dual-Taliban challenge, with the TTP and the Taliban regime both causing instability. The Afghan Taliban, once nurtured by Pakistan for strategic purposes, now poses a growing threat to Pakistan’s security. Pakistan's past support for the Taliban has come back to haunt it, increasing violence across its borders.
