what a new threat

According to the report- If the terrorist's claim is to be believed, then these are new, but dangerous signs for Kashmir. Dozens of such bombs were recovered by security forces in February 2021. Both NATO forces and the Taliban used such bombs in Afghanistan.

Indian Army officers say that in recent days they have recovered many such weapons on which American stamps are present. Afghanistan shares its border with Pakistan. From here these weapons are being sent to Kashmir through Pakistan.

NATO weapons

This report of a German publication has claimed that NATO forces left many modern weapons there while returning from Afghanistan. M4 Carbine Rifle has been recovered in Kashmir. M249 automatic rifles, 509 tactical guns, M1911 pistols, and M4 carbine rifles have also been seen in some videos.

Apart from these, Iridium satellite phones and thermal imagery devices are also suspected to be present with the terrorists. By meeting them, terrorists can carry out horrific incidents or attacks.

Indian army ready

According to the report – in February, Major General Ajay Chandpuria had admitted that the terrorists had some weapons made in America. They have reached Kashmir via Afghanistan. They have also been recovered during some encounters on the LoC.

In a conversation with the website, an officer said – The impact of Afghanistan's going into the hands of the Taliban can affect this region and especially Kashmir. In 1989, when Soviet forces left Afghanistan, there was some effect, but we are also prepared. In the 1990s, about a thousand foreign terrorists were killed in Kashmir. Some of them were Afghans and most were Pakistanis.
