TTP Commander Rejects Reports Identifying Him as Iranian National

The outlawed Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) has released a video statement featuring commander Asadullah Jannati, rejecting media reports that identified him as an Iranian national allegedly killed during recent clashes in Ghulam Khan, North Waziristan.

Some reports had circulated Jannati’s photograph while describing the deceased individual as a former commander linked to al-Qaeda and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) in Syria. The TTP says Jannati is alive and that his photograph was incorrectly associated with the reported Iranian fighter.

Independent verification of the identities and affiliations involved is pending.
