New Delhi: In November 2025, police officers seized 2,900 kilograms of explosives in Haryana’s Faridabad area. Doctor Musammil Shakeel and Doctor Adil Rather, who were linked to this conspiracy, were arrested.
As a result, Umar Muhammad, the suicide bomber, became extremely frightened and panicked. He detonated a car bomb near Delhi’s Red Fort on November 10, 2025. Fifteen people were killed in this suicide attack. The National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted an extensive investigation into the incident. The NIA exposed the terrorists’ conspiracy and the involvement of medical professionals in it. Authorities registered a case against 10 people linked to this case.
In this context, the 38th report of the Analytical and Sanctions Monitoring Team has been submitted to the UN Security Council’s ‘ISIS and Al-Qaeda’ sanctions committee. It has also officially confirmed that the Delhi attack was carried out by the ‘Al-Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent’ organization. Furthermore, Al-Qaeda does not operate in large groups. Instead, it is expanding its network through small, separate cells.
The organization continues to try to develop chemical and biological weapons. The UN has warned that al-Qaeda may try to use the territory of neighboring Bangladesh to form new terrorist organizations. In this way, the UN report has confirmed the concerns India has been expressing about cross-border terrorism.
