NEW DELHI: The Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) has issued a bold and explicit threat to the Pakistani government and its military, asserting a strong presence within the nation's Punjab region and vowing to establish an "Islamic system throughout the country."
In a video accessed by IANS, armed TTP members declared their intent to march from Punjab to Islamabad, promising a shock to the establishment and its "American facilitators."
One militant specifically called the Pakistan Army and the establishment a "cruel force, " claiming they lack the capability to wage war against the "mujahideen" and predicting their imminent downfall.
