My thread has been locked again: https://defence.pk/pdf/threads/should-discussion-be-allowed-on-questions-raised-by-engineer-muhammad-ali-mirza.731716/ I agree we shouldn't be violating forum rules, but since we have touched on this topic, shouldn't we bring it to a logical conclusion? And by...

Somebody posted a thread sharing links to videos that show the BLA attack. The thread has been deleted, but I still want to discuss tactics. The post and its defences have not been made to withstand a well planned attack. The guys were pinned by long range fire while enemy troops moved in. I...
