| Wednesday, August 24, 2005 |
U.S. and Afghan government soldiers killed six suspected Taliban militants and seized bombs in a raid on a rebel storehouse, a provincial official said on Wednesday.
"They wanted to carry out terrorist attacks with these remote-control bombs," Gulab Shah Alikhil, a spokesman for the provincial governor, said of the six militants killed and the explosives seized in the Monday raid.
About 1,000 people, most of them Taliban fighters, have been killed in clashes, ambushes and blasts this year. |
