Editorial annotation
General-reference encyclopedia article, consulted via citation, on the PTM's May 2014 founding at Gomal University, its rise to prominence in January 2018 following the extrajudicial killing of Naqeebullah Mehsud, and its renaming from a Mahsud-focused to a Pashtun-wide movement; PTM is presented here as a human-rights movement rather than a Pashtunistan independence project, since it does not itself call for Pashtun independence or unification with Afghanistan.
