2006-06-21
(AIP): Afghan and Coalition forces continued their assault on insurgents in northern Helmand Province on June 19, killing five insurgents and a possible Taliban leader as part of Operation Mountain Thrust, says a press release issued on Tuesday. It said Afghan and Coalition forces received information about a known Taliban safe-house located in the village of Emam Rabat , Musa Qaleh District, where the Coalition engaged and killed the five extremists while they met near a river in the village. No injuries to civilians, Afghan or Coalition members were reported during the operation. One of the insurgents killed is believed to be responsible for conducting attacks against Afghan and Coalition forces in the Musa Qaleh District as well as involvement in weapons and narcotics trafficking, the press release said.
