Revival of Al-Qaida in Afghanistan causes global terror alarm

The Resurgence of Hamza bin Laden: A Threat to Global Security

Recent reports indicate that Hamza bin Laden, son of Osama bin Laden, is alive and leading al-Qaida’s resurgence in Afghanistan. Despite claims of his death in a 2019 CIA airstrike, intelligence suggests that Hamza, along with his brother Abdullah, are actively rebuilding al-Qaida’s influence in the region.

The Mirror highlights Hamza as the ‘Crown Prince of Terror,’ overseeing al-Qaida training camps in Afghanistan. The group has aligned with other extremist factions opposing Western interests, posing a significant threat to global security.

Concerns are raised about a potential 9/11-style attack on Western countries, as al-Qaida collaborates with the IS-KP. The complex relationship between Taliban and al-Qaida further complicates the security situation, prompting a reassessment of counterterrorism efforts in the region.

Experts warn of the implications of Hamza’s survival, emphasizing the need for international cooperation to combat the growing threat of terrorism emanating from Afghanistan. The intricate ties between terrorist organizations and regional actors underscore the challenges faced in addressing this evolving security landscape.
