LeT Fast‑Tracks Rebuild of Muridke Headquarters After IAF Strike as Demolition Concludes

Security assessments say Islamabad provided an initial PKR 4 crore for the project.

Overview

  • Demolition of the damaged Markaz Taiba complex ran from August 18 to September 7 using heavy machinery, and debris clearance is underway.
  • Reporting based on an intelligence dossier alleges Pakistan publicly committed to fund reconstruction, with LeT estimating total costs above PKR 15 crore.
  • LeT has launched donation drives branded as flood relief, which multiple assessments say are being used to channel money into rebuilding the Muridke hub and other damaged camps.
  • Senior LeT figures, including Maulana Abu Zar, Ustad ul Mujahiddin and Yunus Shah Bukhari, are supervising the reconstruction effort.
  • Training and accommodation were shifted after the May 7 strike to Markaz Aqsa in Bahawalpur and later to Markaz Yarmouk in Kasur, with a rebuild target set before February 5, 2026.
