Nato says three troops killed in eastern Afghanistan
[Dawn] A roadside kabooming killed three NATO...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. It's headquartered in Belgium. That sez it all.... service members on Saturday in eastern Afghanistan, the US-led coalition said. The coalition recently shifted its focus from southern Afghanistan to the east, where bully boyz are fighting Afghan and coalition troops along the long, mostly non-existent border with Pakistain. The exact location of the bombing was not disclosed, nor were the nationalities of the dead. So far this year, 519 NATO service members have been killed in Afghanistan, including at least 389 Americans. Separately, tribal elders in Pashtun-infested Logar province, also in the east, continued to negotiate with Islamic fascisti on Saturday in an effort to free eight Pak laborers kidnapped by bully boyz on Thursday, said provincial front man Din Mohammad Darwesh. He said they were kidnapped by a gunman on a cycle of violence who ambushed a bus carrying the laborers to work at a hospital construction site in Pul-e-Alam, the quiet provincial capital. The assailants took them into the woods at gunpoint. Posted by: Fred 2011-12-04 |
