Arab Today, arab today British Commander: Taliban plotting a ''Spectacular'' attack

London - QNA

Taliban fighters are plotting a ''very spectacular'' attack in Helmand province, the British commander in Afghanistan has disclosed. The Royal Marine Commander of British forces in Helmand, Brigadier Ed Davis, admitted that despite taking out 16 commanders in the last 12 weeks a high level Taliban team was keeping one step ahead of his troops, Daily Telegraph newspaper quoted him as saying. "A hard core are left that are hard to kill or capture and sophisticated in their targeting. They will look at more spectacular attacks and high profile attacks targeting ISAF (International Security Assistance Force) and Afghan commanders," Brig Davis said. He added: "They are very competent, they have been doing this for a long time and their tactics techniques and procedures have evolved like ours." There were now very advanced intelligence methods of listening into the Taliban commanders, but some were still difficult to track down. "We are getting better at it but so are they," the officer said. Britain has around 10,000 soldiers in Afghanistan, mostly in Helmand province, since the US-led invasion in 2001.
