BREAKING:

Confirmed reports that Rahimullah Haqqani has been killed in a suicide blast in Kabul. As per initial reports a suicide bomber blew up in his room where he was studying. #Afghanistan ImageImageImage
TRIGGER WARNING!

#NSFW

VIDEO from the Islamic seminary in Kabul where a suicide bomber blew up in the room of Rahimullah Haqqani, killing him. People can be heard crying in the background. #Afghanistan
Rahimullah Haqqani was an important pro-Taliban ideologue and was pretty well known in Pakistan too. There have been multiple attacks against him in the past too, which he survived. He was a critic of ISKP.

Remains of Rahimullah Haqqani's dead body: Image
Celebrations in pro-ISKP channels following Rahimullah Haqqani's death. Worth noting that he was not just a critic of ISKP but also a strong opponent of the Salafist ideology.
Ok so that's the dead body of the suicide bomber. His legs are completely blown off. Rest of the body intact but charred. ImageImage
So, Taliban sources say that the suicide bomber was handicapped and had explosives hidden in his plastic artificial leg. This explains why we don't see his legs in the photos. Taliban sources say he entered the seminary to meet Rahimullah Haqqani and then detonated. #Kabul
Taliban spox Bilal Karimi officially confirmed the event. Image
BREAKING:

ISKP claims "martyrdom operation" in Kabul carried out by its member Khalid al-Logari which killed Rahimullah Haqqani, identified as an enemy of IS, along with a number of his companions.

BREAKING:

IS releases detailed statement via Amaq along with photo of Khalid al-Logari, who carried out the suicide bombing in Kabul which killed anti-ISKP pro-Taliban ideologue Rahimullah Haqqani. #Afghanistan ImageImageImage
Kabul police spox confirmed that besides Rahimullah Haqqani, his brother was also killed in Thursday's suicide bombing in Kabul, which has been claimed by ISKP. His nephew was wounded, along with two other seminary students. #Afghanistan

So like I said before, it's quite likely that the attack on Rahimullah Haqqani included some insider help. Now some Taliban sources are claiming that his driver might be involved in the plot. Very interesting.

کچھ عرصہ قبل کچھ لوگوں نے محب وطنی کا ٹھیکا اٹھایا اپنے مفاد میں۔ خوب پیسے کمائے اور ساتھ میں دوسروں کی پگڑیاں اچھالی گئیں۔ ساتھ میں فوج زنداباد کے نعرے بھی لگائے گئے یہ سوچ کر کے وہ خوش ہونگے اور انکی حمایت حاصل رہے گی۔ یہ سوچ کر ان لوگوں کو لگا کہ پاکستان ان کے باپ کی جاگیر ہے۔
یہی ان لوگوں کی غلط فہمی تھی۔ نا پاکستانی فوج کسی کے باپ کی نوکر ہے اور نا پاکستان کسی کے باپ کی جاگیر۔ یہ لوگ بھول گئے کہ جن کے لیے نعرے لگا رہے تھے، کیا ان کو ان لوگوں کے سستے نعروں کی ضرورت ہے؟ کیا ان کو نہیں پتا کہ آپ اپنے مفاد میں یہ چاپلوسی کر رہے ہیں؟ ان کو بدھو سمجھا ہے؟
جب ہم کہتے ہیں کہ ریاست کے مفادات مستقل ہوتے ہیں تو اسکا مطلب یہ نہیں ہوتا کہ ریاست کے مفاد کبھی بدلتے نہیں، یا ریاست کسی کی محتاج ہے۔ بلکہ اسکا یہ مطلب ہوتا ہے کہ ریاستی مفادات سے بڑھ کر کوئی شخص یا گروہ نہیں ہوتا۔ مگر ریاستی مفادات وقت اور حالات کے ساتھ بالکل تبدیل ہو سکتے ہیں۔

So, Rishi Sunak is getting some heat for being tough on China. He said China is ‘biggest threat’ to UK and that he will ban China's state-affiliated Confucius Institutes from UK. independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…
So, did Rishi say something out of place? No.

British security establishment, including the MI5 and the MI6, believes that China is UK's biggest threat.

In 2020, MI5 chief Ken McCallum said China is biggest long-term threat to the UK:
