Pakistan’s military provides weapons and training to ISIS militants in Afghanistan and instructs them to kill the “infidel” Afghan forces, according to the terror group’s fighters who laid down their arms.
They also said that Pakistani military provides light and heavy weapons to ISIS fighters in Afghanistan. “Pakistani military gave us weapons and used to tell us that Afghan forces are infidels and you must kill them,” Zaitoon, a former ISIS fighter who laid down his arms said Wednesday. Arabistan, Zaitoon’s co-fighter, said: “I was tasked to fight in Nazian district [in Nangarhar]. We used to present our daily report to Punjabis and Pakistanis and they encouraged us to fight the Afghan government.”
Meanwhile, 10 Afghan fighters for the ISIS group have surrendered their weapons in eastern Afghanistan, in a first since ISIS jihadists moved into the country, officials said Thursday. “For the first time, 10 ISIS fighters, including their two commanders along with ammunitions have joined the peace process,” said a spokesman for Nangarhar provincial governor’s office.
