In another sign of blatant aggression towards its neighbours, Pakistan has built a military outpost which is several kilometres deep inside Afghan territory, being situated just a hundred metres from the headquarters of the Baba Dur district.


The Baba Dur district is situated in the Nangarhar province of Afghanistan, which is already suffering from a large-scale presence of terrorists from both the Taliban and the Islamic State.


Apart from actual military presence on Afghan soil, Pakistan’s ISI also controls a number of proxy groups on the ground, including the Haqqani Network, Lashkar-e-Taiba and others. The Taliban’s own leadership is in fact based in Quetta, the capital of Pakistan’s Balochistan province.
