Al-Qaeda regroups in Afghanistan as Taliban return enables new training sites
TL;DR Summary
Al-Qaeda has reestablished training camps in Afghanistan—at least eight sites over the past three years—as the Taliban’s return to power and the U.S. withdrawal provide space for regrouping. Western and U.N. sources say the camps now focus on regional conflicts, with al-Qaeda acting as a consultant to other groups, while rival Islamic State–Khorasan also gains ground.
