in a hamlet (Landa Nawa?) some 15 kms south of Musa Qala, Helmand Province. A Danish occupation patrol was attacked and called-in close air support (as usual). Apache attack helicopters and jet fighters strafed and bombed the area. Residents reported to Pahjwok Afghan News that at least four homes were destroyed, two children were killed as well as 5 Taliban. The NATO propaganda personnel loudly proclaimed “up to 80 militants in Helmand” were killed in the battle (no evidence whatsoever provided), a report widely circulated by the corporate media (which serves largely as mouthpiece for U.S/NATO propaganda).
