Untold story of weapons in Iran

 With Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan and Iran getting its hands on the weapons, things have become extremely unpredictable in the region. In the forceful acquisition, Iran has been making several under-the-table deals with Taliban’s leader.

In the widespread scam it was revealed that Iran has been stealing US military equipment despite repeated warnings of the officials and the regional heads. Increasing the regional threats and expanding the territory of fear, Taliban and Iran have joined hands to steal the equipment’s that belonged to US military while they were in Afghanistan.

This has proved to be an opportunity for Tehran who has been looking to get back to American treatment of sanctions. Even with Joe Biden in power, the sanctions on Iran remain strict and even higher level talks could not help the two countries come to one state of documentation. Iran is known to fund and support terrorists in the region and with its current leader, who is an ultra-conservative Islamist.

Disturbing the regional peace, Iran is extending their control of Afghanistan from their southern strongholds by filling the void left by the departing US forces. More than a thousand Afghan soldiers fled across the border to Tajikistan after clashing with the Taliban in Badakhshan and surrendered their weapons.

There seems to be no end for the vicious cycle of terrorism. It was disclosed that through unlawful measures fighters from Iran had taken a cache of weapons from Afghan security personnel that included 70 sniper rifles, 900 guns, 30 Humvees, 20 pickup trucks and 15 armored vehicles.

Two of the images were posted by acting Defense Minister of Afghanistan Bismallah Mohammadi on his official twitter account and he called Iran a "bad neighbor" and said that the country's "bad days are not eternal."

Amidst all the chaos, Iran offered to resume fuel shipments to Afghanistan to prevent an economic collapse. The US left behind billions of dollars-worth of equipment behind in Afghanistan when it completed its withdrawal from the country and Iran is leaping forward to capture it all.
