Security forces in Pakistan are on ‘high alert’ following an intelligence warning of a potential abduction plot targeting foreign guests at the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The alert, reported by CNN-News18, names several terror outfits, including Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan (TTP), ISIS, and Balochistan-based groups, as potential threats.
Hosting the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is a significant milestone for Pakistan’s cricketing landscape. Yet, the nation now faces mounting questions about its ability to secure and manage high-profile international events.
Meanwhile, India’s decision to play their Champions Trophy matches in Dubai, citing security concerns, underscores the doubts about Pakistan’s ability to host such a significant event.
