A UN report says more than 6,000 Pakistani insurgents, most belonging to the outlawed Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) group attacking Pakistani military and civilian targets, are hiding in Afghanistan. The report released this week said the organization has linked up with the Afghan-based Islamic State affiliate and some of its members have even joined the IS group.
