| [Khaama (Afghanistan)] The Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF) have discovered a huge cache of Taliban weapons from the central Bamyan province of Afghanistan, local officials said Sunday. The cache included various types of explosives and weapons, including the ones left from the Soviet era and the newly-supplied Iran-made weapons and explosives. Provincial governor Mohammad Zahir Zahir told news hounds that the cache was discovered during a special operation conducted by the Afghan Intelligence -- National Directorate of Security ...the Afghan national intel agency... (NDS) operatives. The explosives and weapon were put on display which included 39 Improvised Explosive Device (IED), 31 rockets, 2 boxes of PK machine gun ammunition, and 25 rounds of RPG-7 rockets. Zahir said the Iran-made weapons and explosives were also among the cache discovered by the security forces. This comes as the Afghan government officials have long been criticizing the neighboring countries of the country, including Iran and Pakistain for supporting certain anti-government armed Lion of Islam groups. The officials had earlier accused Iran for supporting the Taliban group, however the Iranian officials denied the allegations. No, no! Certainly not! The Iranian authorities have not commented regarding the discovery of Iran-made weapons and explosives from the Taliban weapons cache so far. |
