“...the militants took out communication networks so efficiently that the area became a blind spot for the military. “They coordinated it, in sync, to get the maximum impact,”
Sure sounds like there was *someone* on the inside providing electronic technical details.
Electric gizmos can be hacked or disabled. Two soldiers standing sentry and keeping each other awake, armed with guns and bullhorns, are more reliable, and should have been up and alert with a pot of coffee to keep them that way. Damned idiocy to trust in electronics over men.
