Taliban to deploy suicide bombers along Afghanistan’s borders: Reports

| @indiablooms | Oct 03, 2021, at 05:42 am

The Taliban have created an exclusive battalion of suicide bombers that will be deployed along the borders of Afghanistan, particularly in Badakhshan province.

Deputy Governor of Badakhshan province Mullah Nisar Ahmad Ahmadi told Khaama Press that the exclusive battalion is named Lashkar-e-Mansoori or “Mansoor army”.

Interestingly, Badakhshan borders Tajikistan and China.

Ahmadi has said that the battalion is the same as the one that would conduct suicide attacks targeting the security forces of the previous Afghan government.

“The defeat of the US would not be possible if not for this battalion. These brave men would wear explosive waistcoats and would detonate the US bases in Afghanistan. These are people with literally no fear who devote themselves for the consent of ALLAH,” Ahmadi told the news agency.
