I didn’t post the wrong picture, I posted a picture that showed the whole line of ammunition and made it clear which ones were marked as “Indian Ammo” . I was pointing out that of all the pictures, the only one you chose to use was the one that was zoomed in barely enough to catch the next section of ammunition beginning to the left, and then you made it sound as though that one was also tagged as “Indian Ammo” , whereas the photo I posted showed that only a section of shells was tagged this way.
The chinese and russian shells are all visibly old - they are all dented and corroded. Both China and Russia supplied the Northern Alliance so it’s only natural that the Pakistani Taliban were able to buy old munitions from across the border.
These mortar shells, though, seem far from “freshly painted”. They aren’t even dented like the others, they look to be in fresh, perfect condition. Someone’s been supplying them recently.
I’m sure that the dossier your government will be receiving shortly will have the details of how these mortar rounds are connected to India.
