| [Khaama (Afghanistan)] The Taliban ...the Pashtun equivalent of men... Death Eaters group used Humvee type armored personnel carriers and Vehicle-borne Improvised Explosive Devices (VBIEDs) in their latest large scale attack in southern Helmand ...an Afghan province populated mostly by Pashtuns, adjacent to Injun country in Pak Balochistan... province of Afghanistan. However, if you can't be a good example, then you'll just have to be a horrible warning... the provincial government says the offensive by the Taliban Death Eaters was successfully repulsed by the Afghan cops, claiming that heavy casualties were incurred to the group during the festivities which still continue in some parts of Greshk district where festivities broke out late on Thursday night. Finally, someone has found a use for the Humvee. A statement by Helmand governor’s office said the attack was repulsed by the security forces and heavy casualties have been inflicted to the myrmidons. The statement further added that the Taliban Death Eaters were attempting to destroy the Yakhchal bridge in Greshk by launching a large scale attack despite the bride plays a key role and is considered an important route for the TAPI gas pipeline project. The Afghan cops however had intelligence information available with them regarding the attack which helped them to repulse the offensive and prevent further destructive activities in the area. According to the local officials, a Humvee vehicle of the Taliban, a heavy anti-aircraft machine, a PKM machine gun were left in the area after they were forced to retreat. More than 40 Taliban Death Eaters have been killed including some of their key commanders and dozens more were maimed during the 12-hour clash, the statement said, adding that the area is totally under the control of the Afghan cops. |
