Millions In U.S. Funds Spent On Border Equipment In Afghanistan That No Longer Works : The Two-Way : NPR: After operation, training and maintenance costs, the total investment for the equipment to date is estimated at up to $62.6 million.
However, according to a new report, the equipment is now sitting "inoperable and unused" at four of the five locations. At three of them, officials told inspectors that the equipment had not been operational for at least two years.
The report was issued by the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction, or SIGAR – a military agency tasked by Congress to audit U.S. spending in Afghanistan.
