Pakistan ranks second in Global Terrorism Index 2025

The Global Terrorism Index 2025 ranks Pakistan as the world’s second-most terrorism-affected country, up from fourth place. Terrorist attacks doubled from 517 in 2023 to 1,099 in 2024, surpassing 1,000 for the first time. The report attributes this rise to the growing influence of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), highlighting escalating security concerns.
