Some Taliban militants destroyed a vehicle of the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Helmand province of southern Afghanistan on Friday, a local senior police officer told Xinhua. "Some Taliban insurgents ambushed an ISAF convoy and damaged one vehicle in Nadali district," Isa Khan said.
There were no casualties of the attacked ISAF soldiers, who are from Britain, and Taliban militants, he added. Taliban spokesman Yousuf Ahmadi confirmed the ambush, saying the Taliban caused some damage to ISAF vehicles. Over 5,000 British soldiers are deployed as part of ISAF in Helmand, known for its gigantic opium product and rampant insurgency. |
