States (US) commander General John W Nicholson, who commands the US and NATO forces in Afghanistan, while briefing Washington-based journalists at the Pentagon, Virginia on August 1 said that almost 70 per cent of Daesh or Islamic State (IS) fighters in Afghanistan are Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) militants, reports The News. Nicholson said a "significant proportion, a majority of fighters" with IS in Afghanistan come from Pakistan's Orakzai Agency, over the border from Nangarhar, and are former members of the TTP. He said that many of the fighters were Pakistani Pashtun from Orakzai Agency and had been forced out of Pakistan by the ongoing military offensive, Operation Zarb-e-Azb.

The United States (US) on August 3 placed TehreekeTaliban Pakistan Jama’atulAhrar (TTPJuA), a breakaway faction of the TTP, and its leaders on a list of specially designated global terrorists, reports Dawn. “The imposition of sanctions by the United States against terrorists is a powerful tool,” the State Department said in a statement announcing the designation. “Designations of terrorist individuals and groups expose and isolate organisations and individuals, and result in denial of access to the US financial system. Moreover, designations can assist or complement the law enforcement actions of other US agencies and other governments,” it added. The US State Department announced that the designation automatically imposed on the group and its leaders all sanctions that applied to foreign persons and groups determined to have committed, or posing a significant risk of committing acts of terrorism. Designated entities are also considered a threat to the security of the US and its nationals and to its foreign policy and economy. As a result of these designations, all property subject to US jurisdiction in which JuA has any interest is blocked and US persons are generally prohibited from engaging in any transactions with the group.

Meanwhile, the JamaatulAhrar (JuA), a splinter group of the TehreekeTaliban Pakistan (TTP), claimed responsibility for the targeted killing of Advocate Kasi and the subsequent
blast. JuA ‘spokesman’ Ehsanullah Ehsan vowed more attacks “until the imposition of an Islamic system in Pakistan”. The Islamic State (IS) group also claimed responsibility for the
suicide attack, Reuters quoted the IS’s Amaq news agency as saying. “A martyr from the Islamic State detonated his explosive belt at a gathering of justice ministry employees and Pakistani policemen in...Quetta,” the Amaq report said released from Cairo, Egypt. Following the
blast, the Chief of Army Staff (CoAS) General Raheel Sharif chaired a highlevel security meeting and ordered the intelligence agencies to initiate special combing operations to target those involved in terror attacks, said a tweet by InterServices Public Relations (ISPR) spokesperson, reports Daily Times. The Army Chief chaired the meeting, with the Balochistan Chief Minister, Provincial Chief Secretary and Commander Southern Command in attendance. ISPR quoted the Army Chief as saying that after their defeat in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, terrorists are shifting their focus to Balochistan. The attack is an attempt to undermine the improved security situation of Balochistan, and the effort is specially targeting the ChinaPakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), he said. All resources will be employed to control the situation.

As the military launched its first combing operations in Punjab targeting the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) splinter group Jama’at-ul-Ahrar (JuA), Chief of Army Staff General Raheel Sharif publicly vented frustration on August 12 over the Government’s poor progress on the National Action Plan (NAP) against terrorism, reports Dawn. He said the military’s gains during Operation Zarb-i-Azb were being lost. “The National Action Plan is central to achievements of our objectives and its lack of progress is affecting the consolidation phase of Operation Zarb-i-Azb,” he said at a special security meeting at the General Headquarters. The meeting was attended by Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) Director General Lieutenant General Rizwan Akhtar, 10th Corps Commander Lieutenant General Malik Zafar Iqbal and principal staff officers

The JamaaturAhrar (JuA), a breakaway faction of TehreekeTaliban Pakistan (TTP) who claimed responsibility for the suicide attack of August 8 Quetta hospital, claimed on August 16 that it had no links with DaeshIslamic States, whose leadership also said it was behind the attack, reports The News. JuA, which briefly declared allegiance to Daesh in 2014, said in an audio statement that its fight was solely against the Pakistani State and that linking it to transnational militant networks was wrong. "We want to make it clear that our movement has no connection to Daesh or al Qaeda," the group's leader, Omar Khalid Khurassani said. "Those in Daesh or al Qaeda or any other Mujahideen movement are our Muslim brothers. But we do not have any organisational link with any of them. With Daesh and al Qaeda we have never had an organisational link before, and even today we have no organisational link with them," Khurassani added.
