BAGRAM AIR FIELD, Afghanistan – Several insurgents were killed by Afghan National Army and Coalition forces during a reconnaissance patrol, April 10, near Aminah Kalay, Zabul province.

A group of insurgents attempted to ambush the patrol using small arms.  The ANA returned small-arms and heavy machine-gun fire.

During the attack, several insurgents were spotted relocating to a secondary position in an attempt to flank friendly forces. 

The ANA identified the enemy fighting position, engaged with small arms fire and called in close-air support, eliminating the enemy threat and destroying four motorcycles and three trucks.
