Taliban fire at army chopper
Taliban fired at a military helicopter in the Muhammad Gat area of Safi tehsil in Mohmand Agency on Thursday, but there were no casualties. The attack followed a gun battle in the Sagai area. The Taliban fled after troops stationed at the security forces base camp in Muhammad Gat retaliated. Dawn News said the political administration banned government officials from entering the agency because of abduction threats. An NNI report said seven Afghan suspects were arrested in the agency during a search operation.Posted by: Fred 2008-10-17 |
