OK. The USSAns must be suffering an extreme shortage of Chinooks in the Afghans now.
OR
somewhere in our Empire, because we keep moving Chinooks into the Afghans from other parts.
"According to a statement released by NATO-led International Security Assistance Force on Monday, an International Security Assistance Force helicopter made a forced landing in eastern Afghanistan today.
The statement further added, ISAF is in the process of assessing the circumstances to determine more facts; however, initial reporting indicates that there was no enemy activity in the area.
The statement did not disclose further information regarding the exact location of the incident.
ISAF confirmed all crew members have been recovered. The site of the incident is secure and no fatalities were reported."
All of the above is bullshit.
1) Because the Taliban claimed to have shot down the Helo in the exact same place Sunday:
"14 US-Nato invaders killed as Nato helicopter downed in Ghazni Zabihullah Mujahid E-mail Print PDF Sunday, 09 Jamadil Awal 1433 Sunday, 01 April 2012 17:25
GHAZNI, Apr. 01 – A recent news report indicates that Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate brought down Nato helicopter in Andar district of Afghanistan’s Ghazni province on Sunday.
The helicopter was shot down with artillery fire close to the US PRT base at 9:00 a.m. local time after it was about to land, causing the it to set on fire, witnesses to the scene said.
A Mujahideen’s official said that as many as 14 US-NATO invaders are believed to have been killed in the shoot-down, adding that the shoot-down site was cordoned off by the US invaders with a large number their tanks."
My question is how the USSAns are covering the deaths. And the now missing Chinook. "The third reason for rising Gulf consumption is the inefficiency of domestic energy markets. About 65 percent of Saudi electricity is generated using black gold, even as successive price shocks and the relative inefficiency of oil generation have seen it all but phased out in rich countries.

It is said that the fighting is still ongoing at the moment (late afternoon time), causing the enemy heavy losses. More details will be updated later.

8 killed including commander, two wounded in Ghazni battle Zabihullah Mujahid

GHAZNI, Mar. 29 – A news report states that on Thursday Mujahideen of the Islamic Emirate carried out a surprise attack on the enemy combat convoy that triggered a one-hour long fighting in Muqur district of Afghanistan’s Ghazni province in which 8 puppets including their commander were killed and two more wounded with two of the enemy vehicles destroyed. The area come under heavy airstrikes by the US invaders shortly afterwards.
The Taliban say they have shot down an American helicopter in Afghanistan’s eastern province of Ghazni, Press TV reports.
Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid claimed on Monday that at least 14 US soldiers were killed after the chopper was downed in Andar district on Sunday.
He said that the militants have targeted the helicopter with an “82mm rocket.”
Afghan and American officials have not yet commented on the report.
Several choppers belonging to US-led military forces have been downed in recent months in the war-torn country.
#1: The Taliban militants have set fire to a convoy of NATO tankers carrying fuel for US-led foreign forces in southwestern Afghanistan, Press TV reports. Afghan officials said the militants destroyed at least six fuel tankers in an ambush in Dilaram district of Nimruz province late on Monday.
This is while the Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid claimed that the militants destroyed nine tankers along with seven escorting vehicles. Dilaram governor Abdul Karim Barahawi said at least four Taliban militants were killed in an airstrike fallowing the attack.
A similar ambush last week destroyed five NATO fuel tankers. Dozens of Taliban militants were gunned down in the ensuing clashes.
And ALL of the above is where the helo was shot down and the battle took place in the posts above.
Summary:
The USSAns are now reduced to patroling their SUPPLY routes which are being heavily interdicted by the Resistance.
