Russian and Indian troops took part in counterterrorism war games in the Mahajan range. An Indian news report said that last month Indian authorities alerted Israel that a cell of the Indian Mujahideen was planning attacks on Israeli tourists in Rajasthan. The Indian Mujahideen terror group is said to have recently split into two factions, one still linked to Pakistan’s intelligence agency and focusing on attacking India, and the other with an independent agenda. Indian Mujahideen suspect Asadullah Akhtar a.k.a. Haddi disclosed under interrogation details of the group’s ties to al Qaeda, the Taliban, and other organizations.
