ISLAMABAD: Twenty six more bodies of United Special
Forces members have reached Jacobabad air base for
onward transportation to the United States, The
Frontier Post learnt on Wednesday.
These commandos were killed in an operation involving
storming of a suspected hideout of alleged terrorist
mastermind Osama bin Laden, well placed sources said.
Their bodies were flown to Jacobabad Tuesday evening
after US Special Forces were able to airlift them out
of Afghanistan.
The sources said that US Special Forces unit raided a
suspected bin Laden hideout near Kandahar Monday
night.
The unit met some resistance from the guards, but were
successful in going inside the hideout and undertaking
intelligence tasks.
However, they did not find bin Laden or anyone of his
close associates there.
But the real trouble arrived when the Special Forces
were being picked up by US helicopters.
The unit and the helicopters cam under intense fire
from Taliban forces, and received started receiving
casualties.
A US bomber, claimed to be B-52 by the Taliban, is
believed to be covering the helicopters at the time of
the skirmish.
Taliban hit low-flying bomber, and it crashed near
Dalbandin.
The Frontier Post has learnt from other sources that
45 US commandos were killed in this operation.
The number of causalities on Taliban side could not be
confirmed, but it is certain that death toll on their
side was also high.
The general impression is that no commando operations
have been launched since October 20, but Pakistani
sources confirm that several such operations have been
undertaken by the US forces.
Observers say the Pentagon has kept mum about these
operations to avoid questions about causalities.
