Air Traffic near #MazarESharif and #kabulairport.The Cessna Grand Caravan is off to #Tajikistan ImageImageImageImage
The C-208 can take off from Remote Airstrips and could possibly belong to either the Afghan Airforce or the CIA.
Interestingly two Cessna Grand Caravans have left Kunduz/Mazar-e-Sharief for Dushanbe and Qurganteppa.@adgpi operates a Base Hospital at Qurganteppa. Image
So a very interesting update on the C-208B which I was tracking

A quick read on Taliban 2.0 and the fall of Kabul :

1.The change of regime was engineered by the US in full public gkare including promises of a transition and interim government

2.The ISI did not subscribe to the idea but asked the Talibs to play along regardless
3.The old guard (Northern Alliance) Amarullah Saleh , Ata Muhammad Noor and Abdul Rashid Dostum were sidelined by Ghani on the directions of Zalmay Khalilzad

4.The fissures in the government were visible in the public posturing of the old guard which smelt a rat from the outset
5. As fighting erupted in Faryab and Herat, ANA and ANDSF fought back ferociously and managed to reverse initial losses

6. A message went went out from the Presidential Palace asking the ANA/ANDSF to stand down as a power sharing agreement was being worked out.

As India and China are in the midst of a drawdown in Ladakh , I summarize key information gleaned from a Chinese website

The PLA is digging in for winter and the current withdrawals are only "return to nodes" from where they can redeploy at a short notice
#LAC
The conditions for the PLA soldiers on the ground have been anything but easy.

Death and injuries due to exposure ,

HAPE (High Altitude Pulmonary Edema )

and

HACE (High Altitude Cerebral Edema)

My theory is that this is exacerbated due to smoking addiction in the PLA.
The PLA winter stocking is an ongoing process due to better road and rail infra.

However soldiers seem to have received specialised winter equipment recently.

They have stocked special meals for the Chinese New Year which indicates a long term deployment.

1. @khamenei_ir's statement needs to be seen in the context of the "Battle for Dominance" of the Islamic World between Iran and Saudi Arabia

Riyadh's position as the leader of the Muslims has been under threat from Tehran right after the Islamic Revolution of 1979
2. The genesis of this war is a war of ideologies among the two sects of Islam ; 'Shia' and 'Sunni' with Sunnis being the dominant population in the Middle East , North Africa , Pakistan , Indonesia , India and Malaysia.
3. The Muslim populations of most of these countries look towards Saudi Arabia (Custodian of Mecca and Medina) or Iran for support and guidance on issues of religious conflict , regional conflict , social trends and laws. It is a dotted line relationship.

It is not often that a news article gets stuck in your mindspace.With #COVID19 spreading a pall of gloom ; new infections , deaths , ventilators , PPE and above all #China dominates every piece of breaking news
Images from @JetPhotos
However a recent story by @Ashoke_Raj for @ANI @livemint and @EconomicTimes broke the mould and brought a smile on many a face.Special Evacuation Flights by @airindian , an extra cheerful Pakistani ATCO (Air Traffic Controller) and loads of pleasanteries and praise
A story which had too many things going right for it. News that stood out as mushy and unreal and had to be investigated atleast to the extent Open Source information would allow

Drawing from Yun Sun's take on China's Strategic Assessment of India , it would be prudent to delve intio aspects other than Doklam which impact Sino-Indian dynamics.

1. The resurgence of Indian covert capabilities have gradually deleveraged the Chinese MSS in the North East.
2. The MSS used a network of human assets , training camps and ports in Bangladesh , Myanmar and Thailand to facilitate insurgency in the North-East.This included sheltering key leaders like ULFA's Paresh Barua and NSCN-K's S.S.Khaplang inside Chinese Territory.
3. Gun running by the MSS involved Chinese commercial trawlers and Thai drug dealers.The trawlers would offload arms off the Bangladesh coast on speed boats and smaller fishing boats.These were then passed onto insurgents in the North-East through Cox Bazaar and Chittagong

"A lie told often enough becomes the truth." - Vladimir Lenin

An article on @TheNatlInterest by @KyleMizokami was published 3 times since 2017 as a targeted smear campaign against @DRDO_India's Arjun MBT

Let me try and piece this together in a series of tweets
The article in question is a crude attempt at a 1000 word school essay on the Arjun MBT by @KyleMizokami which has been published thrice since April 2017.The links are shared below for verification

The article was first published on 26th April 2017 with an encore on 09th Sept 2019 and finally on 06th Dec 2019 (Mark this date)

Incidentally when the article was first published on 26th April 2017 , it had a footnote stating that this article first appeared in November 2016 !
