| Pakistan did not supply Stinger missiles to Iran and only 35 missiles reached Iran that too by mistake, said Lieutenant General (r) Hameed Gul, the former director general of the Inter-Services Intelligence. Talking to a private TV channel, Gul said the Inter-Services Intelligence had supplied 50 to 70 Stinger missiles to former Afghanistan prime minister Gulbadin Hekamtyar. He said most of the missiles should have been exhausted because of redundancy in their batteries, and only few of them might still be operational. “The number of attacks on United States aircraft in Afghanistan by the Taliban shows the militants might have acquired anti-aircraft missiles from elsewhere,” he said. |
