Israel has declared Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) as a terrorist organization. The move comes ahead of the 15th anniversary of the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, in which LeT members killed 166 people, including six Israelis. Israel has said that it is committed to supporting the global war on terror.

The Designation of LeT as a Terrorist Organization

On November 21, 2023, the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that it had designated LeT as a terrorist organization. The designation prohibits any Israeli citizen or organization from engaging in any financial or other transactions with LeT. It also allows the Israeli government to freeze the assets of LeT members and supporters.

The Israeli government said that it had made the decision to designate LeT as a terrorist organization because of the group's involvement in the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, as well as its other terrorist activities. The government said that LeT is a "serious threat to international peace and security."

Israel's Commitment to the Global War on Terror

Israel has a long history of supporting the global war on terror. The country has provided intelligence, training, and other assistance to counterterrorism efforts around the world. Israel has also been a target of terrorist attacks, and the country's citizens and diplomats have been killed and injured in such attacks.

The Significance of Israel's Designation of LeT as a Terrorist Organization

Israel's designation of LeT as a terrorist organization is a significant step in the global war on terror. The designation will help to isolate LeT and make it more difficult for the group to operate. It will also send a message to other terrorist organizations that Israel is serious about fighting terrorism.

The 26/11 Mumbai Attacks

The 26/11 Mumbai attacks were a series of terrorist attacks that took place in Mumbai, India, from November 26 to 29, 2008. The attacks were carried out by ten members of LeT. The attackers killed 166 people and injured over 300 others.

The attacks were the deadliest terrorist attack in India since the 1984 Bhopal disaster. They also had a significant impact on India's security policy. The Indian government has since taken steps to strengthen its counterterrorism capabilities.
