World War 3: Soldier from Georgia killed in Afghanistan. More U.S./NATO deaths. Mujahideen launch major attack on Afghan cops. Another Afghan soldier kills U.S./NATO soldier.

April 26, 2012, Badakhshan provincial officials report that Mujahideen attacked a police check point.  At least three police officers were killed, three others were wounded and 16 others were taken prisoner.

On top of that 21 police officers have gone missing.  Officials say the check point had a total of 43 cops, which means all the police were killed, wounded, captured or ran away!

In Kandahar Province three U.S./NATO personnel were wounded after their vehicle ran over a mine.  Other international reports say three soldiers were killed.  Mujahideen claim they killed five U.S. soldiers with the mine.

In Helmand Province, a soldier from the country of Georgia (not a current NATO member, but a puppet of the United States), has been killed by an explosion: “He had been serving in the Georgian Armed Forces since 2004. Sergeant Khujadze also participated in a peacekeeping mission in Iraq. In 2011 he was awarded with the Medal for Participation in Peacekeeping Operations.”-Georgian government statement

This makes the 16th soldier from the country of Georgia to be killed in Afghanistan.

The announcement from Georgian officials came after International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) reported another NATO death.  Since ISAF does not give details, and since Georgia is being considered for membership in NATO, it could be possible that ISAF was referring to the Georgian soldier’s death.

ISAF also claims that more members of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan were captured, this time in Wardak Province.  At least one militant was killed. ISAF also says a “Haqqani” leader was captured in Khost Province.

Also in Wardak Province, local officials say three women were killed when their house was hit by a rocket. No one knows who fired the rocket. The incident took place on April 23.

On the night of April 25, a man wearing Afghan army uniform shot and killed a U.S./NATO soldier.  Occupying forces returned fire and killed the Afghan soldier.  USFOR-A team is investigating the incident.

According to icasualties.org U.S./NATO deaths are now at 127 for 2012.
