Someone please correct me if I am wrong, but I think the terrorist groups are pretty transitory and aren't stationed in many urban areas. A lot of the warfare goes on in outlying areas.
I'm not really as familiar with where the terrorists hide out in Pakistan, although I do know that there is a lot of cross traffic between the Afghanistan and Pakistan border. |
The Taliban is mostly located in the Eastern and Southern provinces of Afghanistan which are predominately Pashtun. They are also located, along with Al-Qaeda operatives, in the NWFP and the FATA of Pakistan. They are also increasingly growing in strength in Northern Balochistan. There are also significant Pashtun populations in these areas. This is why Kabul is becoming increasingly targeted: it is perilously close to Pashtun areas that are the Taliban's strongholds.
