ISKP’s al-Azaim Media has released a 97-page Pashto document that critiques rival militant groups — notably the Afghan Taliban, Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), and al-Qaeda — and labels them as examples of ideological deviation. Although the pamphlet targets multiple organizations, its principal focus is on the TTP.
The document frames its critique as a “then vs. now” narrative. It argues that the Afghan Taliban have shifted from an earlier posture of confrontation with the United States, rhetorical support for causes such as Al-Aqsa, claims to implement Sharia, and openness to foreign fighters, toward a posture the authors describe as conciliatory: cultivating ties with external states, denouncing certain militant tactics as “terrorism,” treating regional disputes as internal matters, and limiting contact with outside fighters. The tract attributes a similar decline to al-Qaeda, asserting that the group lost coherence after the death of Osama bin Laden and that its leadership and messaging no longer reflect its earlier direction.
The TTP is singled out as the most prominent case in the pamphlet. The authors assert that the group, which once presented itself as a defender of Islam, has become increasingly entwined with state and international actors — allegedly accepting financial support from intelligence services, seeking recognition from global institutions (UN), and prioritizing nationalist and tribal loyalties over religious texts and traditions. The tract contrasts current TTP leadership with earlier commanders such as Hakimullah Mehsud and questions how the movement can claim hostility toward Pakistan while maintaining ties with the Afghan Taliban, which the authors portray as aligned with Islamabad.
To support their argument, the authors cite statements and public positions by these groups — for example, condemnations of particular attacks or expressions of deference to international bodies — and interpret them as evidence of a broader turn toward secular politics and pragmatic accommodation. They warn that such a trajectory would produce governance models oriented toward international legitimacy rather than the strict religious order the pamphlet advocates, and they characterize fighting for such aims as strategically and morally misguided.
The tract also advances its own ideological alternative.The publication concludes by addressing rank-and-file militants, urging them to reconsider local loyalties and align with a supra-national agenda promoted by the authors.
This document should be understood as part of ISKP’s information propaganda operations: it aims to delegitimize rival groups and to influence recruitment and loyalty dynamics within the broader militant ecosystem.

The IMP has released its self-produced report for September, claiming to have carried out 53 attacks throughout the month, concentrated in five districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province. According to the report:
-Khyber Agency: 26 attacks, a stronghold of TLIP.

-Bannu: 2 attacks, where HGB-affiliated groups are present.
-South Waziristan: 1 attack, where HGB-affiliated groups are present.
