After the Pahalgam terror attack, Pakistan has been shocked by India to suspend the Indus Water Treaty (IWT), due to which it has had to urge China to accelerate the construction of a moist dam on the Swat river, so that its water security can be strengthened. Chinese government broadcaster said that work on its major dam project in Pakistan has been intensified in response to India recently threatening to stop water supply. The satellite image revealed shows that the construction work on the Mohammed Dam project was intensified in September 2024 months before India suspended the Indus Water Treaty.

The satellite photographs taken by the European Space Agency showed the main rock-filled embankments of Mohammed Dam in September last year. Shortly thereafter, new structures surrounding the support and supportive purposes grew. The latest satellite photo of May 17, 2025 depicts a large construction of cement -like content next to the rock walls, which shows that the project has moved to an advanced stage of concrete insert and structural reinforcement. The dam is not built on the Western River ruled by the Indus Water Treaty, but is built on the Swat River, a tributary of Kabul that originates from the Hindu Kush mountains of Afghanistan and flows into Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in Pakistan. Pakistan is also a lower coastal country in the Indus basin with India.

India’s effort to limit Pakistan’s access to the Indus River water has been combined with its reach to the Taliban government -led government. According to the report, India has also accelerated work on the Mulberry Dam Project on the Kabul river in Afghanistan. On May 15, the construction of dam was discussed during a conversation between External Affairs Minister Dr. S Jaishankar and his Afghan counterpart. The mulberry dam will have 146 million cubic meters of potable water for 2 million Kabul residents and irrigation of 4,000 hectares of land. It will also provide drinking water for a new city called Deh Sabz on the outskirts of Kabul.
