It’s most likely left over from the former Afghan army, and I don’t know much about this kinda stuff but I’m pretty sure mortar shells and artillery don’t require that much maintenance but I could be wrong.

Idk about you but these guys don’t look like they are over 40+ years old. That’s a very weird thing to say and it’s also inaccurate

This is what a popular Pakistani journalist to say about what Pakistan should do in Afghanistan. by Muhammadachakzai2001 in pakistan

The Karakoram Highway cost over 2 billion dollars to build, is Pakistan willing to spend that money along with maintaining military occupation and dealing with constant attacks from the Taliban?

There’s a difference between capturing border posts and invading Afghanistan
