BAGRAM AIR FIELD, Afghanistan (June 06, 2008) – More than a dozen militants were killed June 3 when they unsuccessfully attacked a Coalition base in Uruzgan province. Militants used mortars and small-arms fire to attack the Afghan National Security Forces at the base until additional ANSF and Coalition forces arrived. The militants fled to nearby villages where the combined forces saw them attempting to use villagers as shields against attacks. The combined forces killed several militants in Caharsyab and Nowrak villages. No villagers were harmed. Several hours later, the combined forces came under RPG, mortar and small-arms fire near the base. The combined forces responded with small-arms fire and precision air strikes, killing more than a dozen insurgents. No civilian casualties were reported and no ANSF or Coalition forces were injured or killed. |
