China recently confirmed it was participating in “joint counterterrorism operations” inside Afghanistan. The size of Beijing’s force is still unclear but reports began surfacing last November that it was patrolling in northeastern Afghanistan’s Little Pamir region. Chinese mine-resistant ambush-protected (MRAP) vehicles, known as the Norinco VP 11, and Humvee-type vehicles known as the Dongfeng EQ2050 were clearly photographed in the remote Shia-populated area.
