Pakistan has ordered the immediate evacuation and deportation of refugees from twenty-eight Afghan refugee camps in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, according to official statements released on October 16th, 2025. This action coincides with reports that a special representative of the Pakistani Army Chief is negotiating with Mossad in Jordan, allegedly to secure recognition of Israel in exchange for remaining in power. The operations against Tehreek-e-Labbaik are also cited as efforts to gain favor with the United States and Israel. Over the past hour, multiple sources reported Pakistani military activity within Afghanistan's Kunar province. Specifically, the Gulapari area of Sarkano district was targeted, as confirmed by local Pashto translations and social media accounts. These reports emerged shortly after the announcement regarding the refugee camps and alleged Mossad negotiations. In parallel developments, locals reported that the Pakistani Taliban (TTP) have moved from several areas within Mamond Tehsil, including Cheenagai, Almazo, Shahi Tangi, Shakro, and Loi Kharki. These groups were observed in Charmang this morning after voluntarily vacating their previous locations, as demanded by locals. The Pakistani government's order to deport Afghan refugees was disseminated through official channels including X (formerly Twitter) accounts @OSPSF and @Natsecjeff. Confidential sources indicated that Pakistani Army Chief Asim Munir is planning to recognize Israel, a move reportedly causing internal military unrest. These sources also suggested that past violent operations against Tehreek-e-Labbaik were conducted to foster trust with the United States and Israel, thereby aiding this recognition. The negotiations with Mossad representatives are said to be taking place in Jordan. This situation follows diplomatic discussions held on October 16th, 2025, in Jakarta, where Afghan Ambassador Mawlawi Saadullah Baloch met with Indian Ambassador Sandeep Chakravorty to discuss bilateral relations. Previous reports from October 16th, 2025, also mentioned claims from Taliban sources suggesting Pakistan had negatively influenced former US envoy Zalmay Khalilzad regarding the recognition of the Taliban regime, alleging an "anti-Taliban" agenda by Pakistan using the TTP as a pretext. The Pakistani military had previously denied targeting Afghan official Abdul Haq Wasiq, stating that known safe houses of the Hafiz Gul Bahadur group were the intended targets.
