Authorities seize copter
(KUNA) -- Authorities have located and confiscated a helicopter suspected to have been concealed by insurgents at a troubled spot south of the capital, the state-run television station reported on Thursday. The television said security personnel confiscated today the multi-winged aircraft in the town of Al-Madaen, that had been a scene of recurring armed action pitting government troops against armed groups in the past. The government forces have recently carried out a successful security operation in the region that largely restored calm and order.Posted by: Fred 2007-01-12 |
