Reliable sources have informed Afghanistan International that ahead of Pakistani Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar's visit to Kabul, the Taliban administration plans to relocate Pakistani Taliban members to a camp in Ghazni.
Restraining Pakistani militants is Islamabad's primary demand from the Afghan Taliban.
Sources from both the Afghan Taliban and Pakistani Taliban have confirmed to Afghanistan International that TTP members are being moved to a camp in Ghazni.
According to the sources, this camp "consists of houses that were originally built for refugees expelled from Pakistan”.
However, they emphasised that the TTP is not confident about this relocation and fears potential airstrikes from Pakistan on the camp.
Sources indicate that if pressure to relocate the Pakistani Taliban intensifies, some members may return to Pakistan.
This news comes as Ishaq Dar announced on Tuesday that he will soon travel to Kabul.
Recently, Pakistan launched a new military operation called Azm-e-Istehkam, "Resolve For Stability" to combat insurgents, including the Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).
The Taliban have not yet commented on the objectives of the Pakistani Foreign Minister's visit to Kabul. However, sources suggest that one significant development in this context is the establishment of two camps in Ghazni province for TTP members, aimed at minimising the group's activities.
The TTP has claimed responsibility for several deadly attacks in Pakistan over the past three years.
It has been reported that during his visit to Afghanistan and discussions with the Taliban, Ishaq Dar aims to reduce these threats and enhance Pakistan's internal security.
No Pakistani Foreign Minister has visited Afghanistan in nearly three years. The last visit was by Shah Mahmood Qureshi, the Foreign Minister under Imran Khan's government, in October 2021.
Recently, former Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan criticised this issue, stating that Pakistan will not succeed in combating terrorism without the support of the Taliban government.
