Let's take this thread into more context for those outside the region, and those unfamiliar with the #TTP operations in #Swat.

The #TTP typically move through 2 routes:

- from #Afghanistan to #Elum in #Buner to either of their bases in #Ghat, south of #MalamJabba.
The 2nd route is from #Kunar, #Afghanistan through #LowerDir or #Bajaur to #GhatPeochar, the former stronghold of the #TTP during #Fazlullah's occupation of #Swat.

It was also one of the most difficult battle is the fight to reclaim Swat from the #terrorists.
We know of both police and military operations on going in areas including #GhatPeochar, mountains around #MalamJabba, #Charbagh, and #Banjot.

A lot of ppl have been tweeting abt the “reunification” of the #TTP factions.

These groups divided over ideological differences, eg civilian target selection, & all have history in #Fazlullah (TTP #Swat) leadership.
It should be clear to everyone that #Pakistan can expect an attempted “large-scale” attack on a military or educational target.

Our followers will recall a similar reunification around the time of the #APS #Peshawar, #FaisalAirBase & #Badhabar attack.
As with past reunifications, this will be short lived with all groups infighting again, when forced to decided with aligning with #ISIS in #Afghanistan or being executed by the #Afghan #Taliban, who hold no affection for them.
