Amid significantly escalating tensions between the Taliban government and Pakistan, strong indications suggest Islamabad is shifting its strategy from direct confrontation to a covert proxy war. Intelligence sources indicate Pakistan has aggressively increased contacts with various Afghan opposition figures and anti-government groups.
Reports reveal that Pakistani intelligence agencies have initiated dialogue with former commanders, disgruntled factions, and officials from the previous republic. While these individual contacts haven't materialized into unified field operations, there is a clear focus on destabilizing Afghanistan's eastern provinces like Kunar and Nuristan.
Regional analysts believe Pakistan's current objective is not outright regime change, but rather weakening the centralized power structure to create substantial domestic challenges. The ongoing legitimacy crisis and strict domestic policies have provided fertile ground for these destabilization efforts.
