Directorate of Military Intelligence | Updates & Discussion

[Kompromat]

The Directorate for Military Intelligence, known as "Military Intelligence" (MI), is the intelligence arm of the Pakistan Army. It is headquartered at the General Headquarters (Pakistan Army) in Rawalpindi, Pakistan. Unlike the Directorate for Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), the MI is composed entirely of uniformed Army officers and soldiers whose primary mission is to determine the military capability and any other information related to, military forces of hostile countries. Besides it is also tasked with gathering offensive counter-insurgency intelligence, identifying and eliminating sleeper cells, foreign agents and other anti-state elements within Pakistan, including investigation of military espionage.

MI role and capacity have increased a lot in past few years. Now many internal operations are being conducted by MI instead of ISI.

I believe both are now also expanding networks into the socio-political environment too.

This leads to unnecessary overlap in CT and counter-intel.

MI should focus solely on defense-related intel and get better and better at that rather than adding unrelated capabilities.
