EDITORS COMMENTS
Khyber Pass: A Historical and Strategic Landmark at the Afghanistan-Pakistan Border - Jandola Fort, Waziristan (circa 1919) The Khyber Pass, a mountainous and narrow corridor, has long been a significant trade route and strategic military location connecting Central Asia and South Asia. This historic photograph captures the Jandola Fort situated in the Waziristan region of the Khyber Pass, which marks the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan. The image dates back to the conclusion of the Third Anglo-Afghan War in 1919, a pivotal moment in the history of the region. The British Empire, seeking to secure its interests in India, engaged in a series of conflicts with Afghanistan over the control of the Khyber Pass. The third war ended with the signing of the Treaty of Rawalpindi, which granted the British the right to maintain a military presence in the region. Jandola Fort, a crucial fortification in the Khyber Pass, served as a vital strategic location for the British forces. Its location in the western part of Afghanistan, near the border with Pakistan, made it an essential stronghold for controlling the passage between the two countries. The fort's presence also allowed for the monitoring and regulation of the trade caravans that passed through the Khyber Pass. The image offers a glimpse into the rich history of the Khyber Pass and the strategic importance of Jandola Fort. The fort's rugged terrain and imposing structure stand as a testament to the challenges and complexities of the region's geopolitical landscape. The photograph serves as a reminder of the historical significance of the Khyber Pass and the ongoing importance of the Afghanistan-Pakistan border in shaping the political, economic, and military dynamics of South Asia.
