RC N Watch: Im Westen was Neues?

Noch ist es eher ein vager Eindruck – kommt es im Westen des Regionalkommandos Nord in Afghanistan, vor allem in der Provinz Faryab und im Bezirk Ghowrmach, der eigentlich zur Provinz Badghis gehört, wieder vermehrt zu Auseinandersetzungen mit Aufständischen? Jüngste Meldung dazu im heutigen Morning Operational Update des ISAF Joint Command (da der angesprochene Bezirk direkt nördlich des PRT Meymaneh liegt, dürften hier vor allem die Norweger aktiv geworden sein):

During a security operation in Shirin Tagab district, Faryab province, an Afghan and coalition combined security force killed several insurgents who were planning an ambush attack. The security force was notified of the impending attack after receiving several reports from concerned citizens throughout the week.

The force followed intelligence leads to the insurgent operating location, where they noticed several individuals preparing for the reported ambush attack on a separate Afghan and coalition force. After assessing a threat, the security force fired at the individuals, killing several. Several other suspected insurgents were detained for further questioning.
