News from the Other Side: Attack on Khost
2002-08-08
Anti-US Afghan mujahideen fired missiles on Khost Airport and killed three Afghan mercenaries supporting the occupying US forces and destroying one helicopter parked at the base. According to the reports reaching here the missiles hit a barrack at the base which was housing the local soldiers. Three of the local soldiers killed and some others wounded in the attack. Another missile hit a helicopter located at the base and destroyed it.
If it happened at all, the perps are probably back in Quetta by now, congratulating each other on their heroism...
