Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines stated that the intelligence community is no longer able to collect as much information as they were when troops were present in Afghanistan. This has resulted in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/withdrawal-from-afghanistan-decimated-u-s-intelligence-gathering\/\" title=\"US intel gathering devastated by Afghanistan withdrawal.\">catastrophic intelligence gap<\/a> that is more severe than what the Biden administration is willing to admit.<\/p>\n<h3>The Impact of the Withdrawal<\/h3>\n<p>Senator Deb Fischer from Nebraska expressed her concern that counterterrorism operations are now &#8220;basically nil&#8221; due to the lack of intelligence on the ground. Haines confirmed that intelligence operations have been degraded from what they were previously, but further details on the shortcomings would have to be discussed in a classified setting.<\/p>\n<h3>The Reemergence of Terrorism in Afghanistan<\/h3>\n<p>Haines&#8217;s admission is the clearest confirmation to date by U.S. intelligence leaders that Afghanistan has reemerged as a central breeding ground for terrorism, particularly for ISIS-K.
