Afghan forces kill 6 militants

2008-12-27 10:34

Kabul - Afghan and coalition forces say they have killed six militants during a patrol in southern Afghanistan's most violent region.

The US coalition said on Saturday that the combined forces were on a patrol in Helmand province on Thursday when they spotted militants pulling out weapons from a hiding spot.

The combined forces killed the militants and destroyed the weapons.

Violence has spiked across Afghanistan the past two years.

More than 6 000 people have died in insurgency-related violence in 2008, according to an Associated Press count of figures based on Afghan and Western officials.
