Early Times Report
Jammu, Apr 23: Initial investigation conducted by the security agencies confirmed that terrorists used steel bullets to ambush an Army truck in the border district of Poonch.
Steel core bullets, capable of piercing an armoured shield, were used by NATO forces during the Afghanistan war and these bullets are part of ammunitions NATO forces have abandoned after leaving Afghanistan.
Security forces observed that terrorists used American armour-piercing bullets during the attack on unarmed soldiers.
Official sources reported that these bullets were successful in piercing through the bulletproof jackets worn by the troops during encounters.
Reports said that some terrorists were also found using advanced night visions, which were made in Canada and this equipment was also part of the arms, and ammunition left by the NATO troops in Afghanistan.
Recently security agencies have cautioned that Pakistani authorities are desperately trying to push Afghan returned terrorists on the Indian side of the Line of Control (LoC).
The launch pads across the LoC in Kashmir Valley are abuzz with activities of terrorists, believed to be Afghan returnee mercenaries, receiving training with a possible push expected during summer months”, reports said.
The terror groups in the Kashmir Valley have reportedly managed some arms and ammunition left by the US army in Afghanistan. Recently a terror group released a video in which terrorists were brandishing American-made rifles and pistols.
Reports said that the leftover arms and ammunition are being sold openly by the Taliban in Afghanistan. Terror groups from Pakistan are buying these weapons and ammunition from the Taliban and sending them across the border to Kashmir Valley. |
