For those traitors who stop the return of Afghans, the martyrdoms of our youth are just numbers; enmity with Pakistan is their creed, and staying here means uprooting roots and plundering the economy. The cowardly compromises of politicians have turned Pakistan into a graveyard. Delay in deportation is suicide, while this fire is not one that can be extinguished but rather a challenge to the system.

This means that the BBC's story is completely accurate. Due to Mullah Hibatullah's foolish policies, the Taliban are fighting among themselves, and Mullah Hibatullah has lost his grip on the Taliban.The rebellion against the Kandaharis is intensifying.

According to the international journal The Diplomat, Pakistan has emerged as the country most adversely affected by the Taliban regime’s rule. In 2021, Pakistan viewed the Taliban’s return to power as an opportunity for regional stability, but the outcomes proved to be the opposite, The Diplomat reports. Pakistan extended extensive diplomatic and humanitarian support to the Taliban, yet despite this, the country’s internal security situation continued to deteriorate, according to The Diplomat. Following the Taliban’s return, Pakistan faced a renewed wave of terrorism, The Diplomat notes. Terrorist groups including the TTP, Al-Qaeda, and ISIS-Khorasan remain active in Afghanistan, as highlighted by The Diplomat. Afghan soil continues to be used for launching terrorist attacks against Pakistan, The Diplomat reports. Among cross-border attacks originating from Afghanistan, militants of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) are the most heavily involved, according to The Diplomat. The involvement of Afghan nationals in terrorist incidents inside Pakistan has reportedly reached up to 70 percent, The Diplomat states. India has re-established its diplomatic presence in Kabul and rapidly expanded engagement with the Taliban leadership, The Diplomat notes. Growing ties between the Taliban and India are emerging as a serious security concern for Pakistan, according to The Diplomat. Pakistan has sacrificed more than 80,000 lives in the war against terrorism, The Diplomat reports. Initially, Pakistan prioritized dialogue, mediation, and regional diplomacy over confrontation, The Diplomat states. Pakistan pursued bilateral talks, religious mediation, and regional diplomatic efforts to resolve the issue, according to The Diplomat. With mediation by the United Arab Emirates, an agreement was reached to relocate TTP militants away from border areas, The Diplomat reports. Despite assurances, the Taliban took no concrete action against the TTP, The Diplomat notes. Due to the Taliban’s failure to honor commitments, Pakistan adopted a strategy combining dialogue with limited military action, according to The Diplomat. As a result, Pakistan was compelled to target TTP hideouts inside Afghanistan in September and October 2025, The Diplomat reports. Even then, Pakistan did not completely close diplomatic channels, with Türkiye and Qatar continuing to play mediatory roles between Pakistan and the Taliban, The Diplomat states.

Afghanistan: Severe Criticism of Taliban by Abdul Hamid Khurasani on Ethnic Prejudice and Identity Suppression 
Abdul Hamid Khurasani said:
"If we had known that one day our mother tongue and our ethnic identity would be considered a crime, we would have cut out our tongues and obtained identity documents from another country."
He stated that such ethnic, linguistic, and regional prejudices under the shadow of a so-called "Islamic system" are extremely regrettable.
Khurasani said:
"Pharaoh and Nimrod also ruled for a time, but their end became a lesson for humanity."
He further said:
"We were deceived by the slogans of Islam and the sanctity of the holy flag; otherwise, martyrdom is more honorable than humiliation."
Khurasani emphasized that they have been struggling against oppression, injustice, and discriminatory treatment for many years.
At the conclusion of his statement, he said:
"We possess the capability for every kind of legitimate and Sharia-compliant defense, but we fear the Day of Judgment—that our hands might be stained with blood and we might become the cause of a new calamity."

Editorial: Kabul leaders hardly progressive, but may be best bet to reintegrate Afghanistan with the rest of the world
Although a ‘Kabul Spring’ is hardly in the offing, limited change in Afghanistan could be in the air.
Taliban fissures
EditorialJanuary 19, 2026
THOUGH reports of fissures within the Afghan Taliban are not new, a recent BBC story has detailed some of the major differences that exist between the so-called Kandahar and Kabul factions of Afghanistan’s ruling set-up.
The former grouping is seen as loyal to the edicts of Taliban Supreme Leader Mullah Hibatullah Akhundzada, while the faction in the Afghan capital is led by the likes of Sirajuddin Haqqani and Mullah Yaqoob.
As per the BBC, a leaked audio recording reportedly of Mullah Akhundzada dating back to January 2025 warned against divisions within Taliban ranks, with the hard-line movement’s supremo asserting that differences could lead to the emirate’s “collapse”. Taliban leaders, however, have downplayed the divisions, describing them as differences of opinion within a family.
One incident cited by the official British outlet as evidence of divergences between Kabul and Kandahar was last year’s internet shutdown, ordered by Mullah Akhundzada. Within days of the edict, Afghanistan was back online, as the Kabul faction apparently defied their leader and had the internet restored.
Differences among the Taliban are natural; the movement has various power centres. While Mullah Akhundzada may reign supreme, Siraj Haqqani has considerable power, being the scion of veteran Mujahideen commander Jalaluddin Haqqani. Mullah Yaqoob, son of ex-supremo Mullah Omar, also has a significant following, particularly amongst younger Afghans.
Whereas Mullah Akhundzada is based in his Kandahar redoubt, living a near medieval life, the Kabul leaders are relatively urbane men, hobnobbing with global leaders in the Gulf, Russia, China, etc. The latter faction knows that Afghanistan cannot prosper without shedding some of the rigid curbs ordered by the supreme leader.
The Kabul leaders are hardly progressive but they do hold relatively more moderate views compared to Mullah Akhundzada and his inner circle. In the current context, this may be the best bet to reintegrate the country with the rest of the world. For example, the Kabul grouping reportedly favours education for girls beyond primary school, and some members of this faction have previously been disciplined for their views.

While major internal strife among the Taliban is unlikely, it is possible that the Kabul leaders may try to further assert themselves to implement more ‘pragmatic’ polices, without rocking the boat, thus giving Afghans a little more freedom.
They should also revisit the policy of hosting foreign terrorist groups, including the banned TTP, and impress upon Mullah Akhundzada that cross-border attacks by these groups on Pakistan and other neighbours will further isolate Afghanistan. Although a ‘Kabul Spring’ is hardly in the offing, limited change in Afghanistan could be in the air.

Pakistan’s kinnow exports soar to $40mn in 45 days despite Afghan market closure
- Maintains a steady pace throughout December, followed by sustained momentum during the first 15 days of January, says the ministry
In a press release issued on Monday, the Ministry of Commerce said that despite the disruption of a traditionally significant export destination, the ministry, in close coordination with the Trade Development Authority of Pakistan, moved swiftly to facilitate exporters and redirect consignments toward alternative international markets.
“These efforts ensured continuity in shipments and protected growers and exporters from potential losses.”
As per the ministry, the data showed that exports maintained a steady pace throughout December, followed by sustained momentum during the first 15 days of January.

Federal Minister for Commerce Jam Kamal Khan lauded the collective efforts of the Ministry of Commerce team, Trade Development Authority of Pakistan (TDAP), Pakistan’s trade missions abroad, exporters, growers, and logistics partners, acknowledging that the strong performance was the result of close coordination and shared commitment.
He emphasised that overcoming the impact of the Afghan market closure required a whole-of-government and whole-of-sector approach, and appreciated the dedication of officers and stakeholders who worked tirelessly to keep export channels open and competitive, the press release said.
Officials attributed this performance to focused market outreach, enhanced trade facilitation, and close engagement with exporters.
Priority was given to expanding access to markets in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and other non-traditional destinations, while ensuring compliance with international quality and phytosanitary standards, the ministry said.
Meanwhile, the TDAP complemented these efforts through targeted export promotion, coordination with overseas trade missions, and continuous support to exporters in logistics and documentation. Improved coordination between federal authorities and the private sector helped maintain shipment schedules and preserve Pakistan’s reputation as a reliable citrus supplier.

“The sustained export performance has provided critical foreign exchange earnings and reinforced confidence across the kinnow value chain, benefiting farmers, processors, packers, and exporters.
Stakeholders noted that the strong trajectory, despite external challenges, reflects the resilience of Pakistan’s agri-exports and the effectiveness of government-led export facilitation.”
The continued momentum in kinnow exports is being viewed as a positive signal for the broader agricultural export sector, reaffirming the government’s commitment to export-led growth and market diversification, the statement added.
