View Article  Paratroopers launch biggest battle in Afghanistan for two years
by Riley Jones on Sun 08 Jun 2008 08:15 AM EDT


In one of the biggest air assaults in their history, troops from the Parachute Regiment have spent the last four days deep in Taliban territory.

Breaking one of the last insurgent strongholds in southern Afghanistan, the "Battle of Qarat-e-Hazrat" in Zabul Province ended in an enemy rout.

The Daily Telegraph's Defence Correspondent Thomas Harding watched as British firepower finally turned the tide in the Taliban's own "back yard".

AMAZING how our news services are silent on this event. Well "Good News" about the War on Muslim Extremism is "verboten" in the US media these days.- Riley
