Amid the US military drawdown from Afghanistan, a senior Afghan security official said that the Taliban is making efforts to transport military equipment captured from Afghan security forces, including tanks, to Pakistan.This comes as the Taliban continues to take several districts, and military bases that house dozens of vehicles, tanks and others, TOLOnews reported."There is also information that the Taliban take some (military) tanks to Pakistan through Zabul province (in southern Afghanistan)," Afghanistan's Acting Interior Minister Gen. Abdul Sattar Mirzakwal said on Saturday while adding that his remarks were based on intelligence information he has received."The National Security Council and the commander in chief have ordered permanent patrols to target any tank that is tried to be taken to Pakistan."Reiterating Mirzakwal's remarks, another high-ranking Afghan official said some military equipment has been transferred across the Durand Line between Afghanistan and Pakistan."They have taken military equipment owned by security forces across the Durand Line," said Shamim Khan Katawazai, head of the Afghan's Independent Directorate of Local Governance.
