Kabul attack called handiwork of non-state actors

PESHAWAR (Pajhwok): The Pakhtun Think-Tank (PTT) has denounced Thursday’s terrorist attack in Kabul, where more than 40 students were killed.

“This kind of terrorism is the product of radicalisation of a segment of society and is being executed by violent non-state actors,” the PTT said in a statement on Friday.

Non-state actors were not only a threat to national security but also to international peace, it said. “Peace in Afghanistan.”

The PTT voiced its deep sorrow over the brutal killings and expressed solidarity with the victims’ families. It called for synergised efforts on both sides of the border to root out violent extremism.
