A significant conspiracy involving the Pakistani intelligence agency ISI has emerged, indicating a plan to equip Islamist groups with advanced weapons. According to recent reports, Jaish al‑Mohammad is shifting focus towards high‑technology arms that pose greater strategic threats. The group is preparing to acquire quadcopters and drones, moving beyond conventional weaponry.
The support appears to come directly from elements within Pakistan. The Pakistani army is reportedly involved in training Jaish militants, and a portion of the group’s funding—roughly fifty percent—is earmarked for purchasing armaments. Plans for acquiring drones and quadcopters have entered the organization’s agenda.
Under ISI’s facilitation, Jaish and the Taliban Pakistan (TTP) procure machine guns, rocket launchers, and mortars from the black market. This scheme is part of a broader strategy to modernize terror operations against India. Despite TTP conducting attacks directed at Pakistan, Pakistani forces continue to tutor Jaish operators.
TTP has already executed drone assaults in the past, though its modern arsenal remains limited. Jaish’s financing now flows through digital wallets and online transactions, suggesting that its armory will soon include more lethal contemporary weapons. Annually, the group receives 800 to 900 million Pakistani rupees, a significant portion of which is sourced from Gulf states.
The timing aligns with post‑Operation Sindoor strategies. After suffering setbacks, leader Masood Ajhar may orchestrate stronger attacks against India. Security analysts warn that drones would exponentially increase the threat, enabling easier weapon smuggling and strikes. Reconstructed headquarters of Jaish and Lashkar in Pakistan are being rebuilt, and new training camps and launch pads are being established openly, heightening concerns for Indian security agencies.
