Sheikh Yousaf Afridi, a close aide to Lashkar-e-Taiba founder Hafiz Saeed, was shot dead by unidentified gunmen in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.

A Pakistani Prime Minister's aide was photographed with the son of Hafiz Saeed, a designated terrorist, raising concerns about informal ties between the ruling elite and extremist networks.

Hamza, a co-founder of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and close associate of Hafiz Saeed, was shot at in Pakistan, marking the second such attack on him within a year.

Delhi Police has busted a Bangladesh terror module run by Shabir Ahmed Lone, who was in direct contact with LeT commander Hafeez Saeed. Lone, a Kashmiri resident, was released on bail in 2019 and fled to Bangladesh. He was tasked with recruiting and radicalizing illegal Bangladeshi migrants in India, arranging fake IDs and weapons for potential attacks.

K Kavitha stated that Pakistan, a long-time sponsor of terrorism in India, does not deserve to be associated with the Nobel Peace Prize, sarcastically suggesting they might next seek it for terrorists like Hafiz Saeed and Masood Azhar.

Shabir Ahmed Lone - the Indian-born Bangladesh-based alleged handler of a Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorist module busted in Delhi last week - was in direct contact with LeT founder and chief, Hafiz Saeed, and its senior commander Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi.
