India brought the issue of terror safe havens to the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), refuting claims that the architects of the September 11, 2001 attacks were living in remote hideouts. Permanent Representative to the UN Harish Parvathaneni stated that senior al-Qaeda figures involved in the attacks were found in settled communities, not caves.
He cited Osama bin Laden, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, Ramzi Binalshibh, Walid bin Attash, and Mustafa Ahmed al-Hawsawi as examples, all of whom were not hiding in caves but were instead in fortified compounds, residential houses, and urban centers. Parvathaneni emphasized that the same environment that provided refuge to 9/11 planners continues to support terror groups like Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed, enabling impunity for these groups.
He called for the international community to join forces to combat the ongoing permissive environment that nurtures such terror networks.
