MAIDANWARDAG,
Sep. 01 – A powerful coordinated martyrdom attack has rocked the main
American military base in Sayedabad district, according to officials
reporting from Maidan Wardag province.
The
attack unfolded at around 05:00 am local time when a martyrdom Mujahid
(Ahmad), armed with a rifle and an explosives vest stormed the main gate
and cleared all obstacles for a secondary martyrdom seeker to drive his
explosives laden truck inside and detonate it close to the living
quarters of the Americans as a result, a large part of the base was
completely destroyed and engulfed in fire while tens of invaders were
killed and wounded as well as a surveillance balloon and several tanks
parked inside completely destroyed. It is said that the adjacent
district HQ and intelligence HQ buildings of hirelings were also
severely damaged in the powerful explosion.
Officials
from the area add that several helicopters arrived at the scene after
the blast from which 1 was shot down with rocket fire, plunging it into
the fire blazing inside the base, causing the invaders further losses.
The
martyrdom attack happened at a time when other American invaders based
inside Zangori outpost, Sayedabad, were also transferred to this base
last night and Zangori outpost abandoned out of fear of being overrun by
Mujahideen.
It
should be mentioned that this large attack hit the same base which was
targeted with another truck bomb last year which left more than 70
invaders wounded, as claimed by American officials and comes on the
heels of martyrdom attack on Camp Salerno, based in Sahrabagh area of
Khost, two months earlier in which the Americans said 130 of their
soldiers were wounded.
Americans
are known to always play down and hide their casualties in the initial
phases of the attack and always claim that civilians were killed but
they do on occasions state fabricated casualties after a long period of
time so to undersize the media impact however what is observed by
witnesses is in complete contradiction with that of the official
releases of the invaders to the media.
