Afghanistan has sought more military supplies from India including attack helicopters as it stepped up its offensive last week against terror groups. This was stated by the top US and NATO commander in Afghanistan, General John Nicholson. 
On his second visit to New Delhi yesterday, he said India has been making enormously valuable contribution in strengthening Afghan security forces and the US favours the military support. He said India has already provided four Mi-25 helicopters to Afghanistan and the war ravaged country needs more military aircraft



to deal with Taliban and various other terror outfits.
Welcoming India's contribution to restoring peace and stability in Afghanistan, the US Commander said terror outfits like the Haqqani network, Lashkar-e-Toiba and Jaish-e-Mohammad are not only a threat to Afghanistan but to the region, including India. 
Nicholson, who heads the US operations in Afghanistan, met National Security Adviser Ajit Doval, Foreign Secretary S Jaishankar and discussed a range of issues including situation in Afghanistan and terror threat to the region.
