Jaserat are both reporting this morning an unconfirmed report that suggest
that Taliban have bought down an American helicopter in the Maidan Kula
area of Paktia, killing two American soldiers, including a pilot. The model
of helicopter is not yet known, but it is believed to be an attack

and bombed the wreckage of the aircraft as is the American practice. The
helicopter was apparently on a routine patrol when Mujahideen successfully
