European think-tank urges UN to hold Pakistan accountable for promoting terrorism
A European think-tank has urged the United Nations to hold Pakistan accountable for promoting terrorism and failing to live up to its legal and moral obligations towards its own people and the international community.
During an intervention at the ongoing 46th session of UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, Aaron Magunna, a research analyst at European Foundation for South Asian Studies (EFSAS) said, "In 2019 and 2020, following growing diplomatic pressure from the FATF and seemingly not driven by a genuine attempt to combat terrorism, Pakistan arrested Hafiz Saeed and Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi, two UN-designated terrorists.
These sham arrests exemplify Pakistan's double-edged approach towards terrorist activities: terrorism is patronized when strategically useful but opposed when it targets Pakistani interests".
He added, "This is most apparent in Afghanistan, where Pakistan will now have to adapt to an at least partially Taliban-led government".
Global terror watchdog Financial Action Task Force (FATF) recently announced that Pakistan will continue to remain on its grey list due to failure to comply with all the points of a plan of action set by it to combat terror financing.

Israeli airstrikes on Yemen’s Sanaa airport and key military sites have resulted in at least six deaths and 40 injuries. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus was at the airport during the attack. The Israeli military targeted Houthi-controlled infrastructure, and the situation has drawn international concern. Iran condemned the strikes, and the UN called for de-escalation. The Houthis, backed by Iran, have been involved in attacks against Israel since 2023.

In a tense escalation between Afghanistan and Pakistan, the Afghan Taliban has launched missile strikes targeting several points in Pakistan’s border region. This retaliation comes just days after Pakistani airstrikes hit Afghan soil, causing civilian casualties. The Afghan defense ministry has confirmed that the strikes were directed beyond the disputed "hypothetical line" (Durand Line), a border long rejected by Afghanistan. Tensions have been rising as both nations accuse each other of harboring militants responsible for attacks on their respective territories. This new phase of conflict highlights the deep-rooted disputes and challenges in the region.
