From 911Encyclopedia:
By 1992, the ISI was operating 13 permanent, 18 temporary, and 8 joint training camps for Kashmiris in Pakistan Azad Kashmir alone. Some 3,700 Kashmiri fighters were located in those camps by the summer of 1992, including terrorists who crossover from Indian Kashmir. Thus, in the spring of summer of 1992, the ISI established new training camps for Islamist terrorists where they are trained on the latest weapons. The Director of this effort is ISI Brig. Javed, a veteran of the Afghan support effort. A special research council of Islamabad, including military and ISI officers, determines which groups and individuals are eligible to receive assistance, what type, and to what extent: "Curriculum in Training Camps" -Elementary Training for 7 to 10 days
