Israel is using Afghan soil against Pakistan: Father of Taliban
A prominent Pakistani political and religious figure Maulana Samiul Haq known as “the father of the Taliban” has claimed Israel is using Afghan soil against Pakistan.

Maulana Samiul Haq who is also the founder of “Darul Uloom Haqqania” where many prominent Taliban figures have studied in said yesterday that Israel and India are using Afghan soil against Pakistan.
He said the Indian and Israeli intelligence agencies are using the Afghan soil to hatch destructive plots against Pakistan.
Speaking during a gathering on Friday, Maulana Sami said Israel and India are destabilizing Pakistan via the Afghan soil, khaama press reported.
He also accused US of being involved in bloodshed in Afghanistan, Palestine, and Kashmir, and added that peace in Pakistan has links to peace and stability in Afghanistan.
He did not disclose any further information regarding his claims of Israeli and Indian involvement in destabilizing efforts in Pakistan through the Afghan soil.
However, the Afghan and Pakistani officials often blame each other of remaining reckless to act against the safe havens of the terror groups using the soil of the two countries to carry out terrorist activities.
The Afghan officials are saying that the Taliban and Haqqani terrorist network leadership councils are based in key cities of Pakistan from where they plan and coordinate attacks in Afghanistan.
The US officials have also repeatedly called on Islamabad to tackle the activities and eliminate the safe havens of the terror groups.
