About this ebook
Soviet Afghanistan explores how a seemingly contained conflict transformed into a global crisis, reshaping international relations and birthing modern terrorism.
Delving into the Soviet-Afghan War, the book examines the political motivations behind the 1979 Soviet invasion, the strategies employed, and the dynamics within the Afghan resistance.
It reveals that the war not only reshaped the Cold War rivalry but also fostered international jihadist networks and destabilized South Asia.
This book presents a comprehensive historical account by leveraging declassified Soviet archives, firsthand accounts from Afghan mujahideen fighters, U.S. intelligence reports, and scholarly analyses.
