Advanced Weapons and Drone Support: Pakistani security assessments have alleged that proxies operating from Afghan territory have received modern drones, heavy weapons and satellite-based intelligence support from India.

Propaganda and Hybrid Warfare: Analysts have also alleged that Indian networks are supporting propaganda and cyber campaigns aimed at influencing narratives against Pakistan and strengthening militant networks.
