A United Nations Security Council (UNSC) report has officially attributed the 2025 Red Fort blast to Al-Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent (AQIS).

The report detailed AQIS's transformation from a fragmented entity into a more cohesive regional terrorist organisation. It noted that the group has been actively fortifying its logistical and financial networks, adopting a strategy of operating through decentralised, small, and dispersed cells across the region.

Further concerns were highlighted regarding AQIS's efforts to exploit Bangladesh as a base to establish new cells within the country. This indicates a potential expansion of the group's operational footprint and a strategic attempt to broaden its regional influence.

The findings underscore the persistent threat posed by AQIS and its adaptive strategies in the Indian Subcontinent, as observed and documented by international monitoring bodies.
