Ayupp facts check Analysis – As per our findings this information floating on the social media is not correct. However US on this Wednesday on July 19 listed Pakistan among the nations and regions providing safe havens to terrorists, it further said terror groups like the LeT and JeM continued to operate, train, organise and fundraise inside the country in 2016.
In its annual Country Report on Terrorism, in the US mandated by the Congress, the State Department said, Pakistani military and security forces undertook operations against groups that conducted attacks within Pakistan such as Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan. In response Pak did not take any concrete action against the Afghan Taliban or Haqqani.
