Shahzeb Khan, a Pakistani national, was extradited to the U.S. for plotting a terrorist attack targeting a Jewish neighbourhood in New York City on October 7, 2024, timed with the first anniversary of the Hamas assault on Israel. According to prosecutors, Khan coordinated with undercover U.S. agents, seeking to acquire AR-style rifles, ammunition, and tactical gear for a mass-casualty attack. He intended to cross into the U.S. from Canada and carry out the assault himself when he was intercepted in Quebec. The plot was thwarted before any weapons were delivered, thanks to a months-long sting operation. Khan now faces serious federal charges in what officials say could have been a devastating act of terrorism. His extradition took place, ironically on the day that a top U.S General praised Pakistan as a ‘phenomenal partner’ in counter terrorism.
