Tabbed

Description & Rationale

English-language magazines published by Afghan resistance to Soviet occupation of Afghanistan, 1982-1991. Titles include:

The Mujahideen monthly

Mirror of jehad : the voice of Afghan mujahideen

Reasons for consideration:

English-language primary source materials on the Afghan wars of the 1980 are scarce, and these materials document the perspective of the insurgency as conveyed to the outside world.
