Afghanistan: Ministry of Defense repairs 3,573 military vehicles

KABUL (Khaama press) : The Taliban Ministry of Defense has claimed that its military corps have successfully repaired a total of 3,573 military vehicles in the last year. 

The ministry also said that the repaired vehicles are ready for operation and are at the logistical support base of the 201 Khalid Ibn Walid Army Corps in Laghman province, Afghanistan.

In addition to the repaired vehicles, the ministry added that 11 tanks from the 303 Central army corps were also repaired and are ready for operation.

Earlier in March, the Taliban defence ministry had also confirmed that the group had repaired around 300 military vehicles.  

According to the ministry, American forces damaged these vehicles when they withdrew from the country in August 2021.

The Defense Ministry regularly announces the repair of the military vehicles left by the US forces in Afghanistan.

According to US officials, more than seven billion dollars worth of military equipment has been left behind in the country after the withdrawal of their troops. 

The US also expressed concern over the use of military equipment by terrorist groups or would be accessed by its rivals, China and Russia.

Earlier, several reports indicated that the Taliban might ask for help from Russia and China to repair the damaged military vehicles in Afghanistan.
