    The State Department, under Secretary Michael R. Pompeo, decided to maintain the designation of Lashkar i Jhangvi and its aliases as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. After reviewing the administrative record and consulting with the Attorney General and the Treasury Secretary, it was determined that there was no change in circumstances justifying the revocation of this status. Additionally, new aliases such as Lashkar e Jhangvi al-Alami and LeJ al-Alami have been added to the designation. This decision will be recorded in the Federal Register.

    Simple Explanation

    The State Department decided to keep calling a group called Lashkar i Jhangvi a "bad group" because they do dangerous things, and they even added some new names this group might use to the list of "bad names." They think it's important so everyone knows to be careful with them.
