Afghanistan Becomes Hub for Al-Qaeda and Other Militant Groups Under Taliban Rule

21 February, 2026 09:26

A recent international report has raised serious concerns about militant activity in Afghanistan. The report claims that under Taliban rule, Afghanistan has become a center for Al-Qaeda and other armed groups.

According to the US-based outlet Just the News, Al-Qaeda is continuing its activities in Afghanistan with the full protection of the Taliban regime. The report states that Al-Qaeda is benefiting from safe haven and operational freedom inside Afghan territory.

Safe Havens and Mutual Support

The report says the Taliban have provided secure shelter to Al-Qaeda members. It also claims that both groups support each other strategically. This cooperation has allowed militant networks to remain active in the region.

According to Just the News, Al-Qaeda is also involved in providing training to other extremist groups operating inside Afghanistan.

Regional Security Concerns

Experts say the presence of militant groups in Afghanistan is affecting neighboring countries. Cross-border attacks and rising extremism have increased regional instability.

Defense analysts believe that Afghanistan, under Taliban control, has turned into a gathering place for multiple militant organizations. This situation poses a serious threat to regional peace.

Security experts also state that Pakistan has repeatedly informed the international community about the presence of terrorist groups operating from Afghan soil.

Call for Global Action

Analysts argue that the international community must now take practical and concrete steps. They say action is needed not only against militant groups but also against networks that provide support and facilitation.

Experts warn that ignoring the situation could further destabilize the region.
