Afghan and U.S. forces kill 32 Taliban, retake town

By Mirwais Afghan

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (Reuters) - Hundreds of Afghan police backed by U.S. air strikes retook control on Tuesday of a district capital in southwestern Afghanistan that was overrun by the Taliban, killing 32 guerrillas, police said.

The guerrillas seized Mian Nishin, capital of the district of the same name in Kandahar province last week, capturing 30 police officers and a district chief. They executed eight policemen before announcing the release of the other 23 people.

About 400 police took part in the operation to force the guerrillas out of Mian Nishin, said deputy provincial police chief Salim Khan.


I hope the Afghans can hold it this time. By the way good work Afghan police.
