KARACHI: The Pakistan Taliban militants set up a cell in Syria six months ago to monitor "the jihad" in the region, the BBC Urdu website reported on Friday.

The militants had visited Syria to set up a base with the assistance of ex-Afghan fighter from the Middle East who had recently moved to the region and to assess the "needs of jihad", Mohammad Amin, a Taliban operative told BBC.

Amin was further quoted as saying that the cell, approved by militant factions both within and outside of the TTP, sends "information and feedback" on the conflict in Syria back to Pakistan.

Their job is to "assess the needs of the Jihad in Syria, and to work out joint operations with our Syrian friends", the senior Taliban member added.

The presence of the Taliban in Syria is perceived to have a sectarian motive as some factions of the militant organisation feel that Sunni Muslims, who constitute a majority in Syria, are being oppressed by Syria's predominantly Shia rulers.

Btw good job by them. They can all go there now, and make ouster of bashar their primary objective.

if this was Syrian revolution there would be no need for foreign terrorists, however this is all foreign terrorism against Syria... why would F$A want terrorists? aren't there enough Syrians to support them?

Pakistan should crush these groups, Sunnis in Syria should pursue:

1- Democratic struggle for their rights.
2- Go to UN
