Pakistan’s intelligence agency, the ISI, has reportedly established four dedicated training camps for Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP) militants, with over 1,000 terrorists being trained to target the Afghan Taliban and potentially pose a serious security threat to India. These camps reportedly provide military training to fighters from various extremist groups, including Al-Qaeda and Uyghur militants. ISKP, active in Afghanistan and Pakistan, has a growing presence with an estimated strength of several thousand militants. Indian intelligence agencies have warned that ISKP operates with ISI support, recruiting militants from India, especially Kerala, through online interactions and personals meetings facilitated in the Gulf before sending recruits to Pakistan for training. The group has carried out attacks like the 2020 Kabul gurdwara attack targeting Indian interests. ISKP’s increasing strength and access to training and funding in Pakistan, alongside their intent to destabilize the region, raise significant concerns for India’s security. The alliance of ISKP with other terrorist groups under ISI patronage, including a covert alliance with Lashkar-e-Taiba, further intensifies the threat landscape facing India, highlighting the urgency for heightened surveillance and counterterrorism measures.
