●ムジャヒディンが英国平和維持軍を攻撃
ムジャヒディンは、カブール西地区のブレッド・プラント近くの英国のチェックポイントを急襲した。
これは、ムジャヒディンによるカブールで最初のゲリラ攻撃であった。
数分間のムジャヒディンの猛烈な銃撃の後、正気に戻った英兵は応戦したがムジャヒディンは逃走した。
この攻撃の後、英兵(まるで彼等がそこに留まることは安全ではないということを知っているかのように)がチェックポイントを去るのが目撃された。
現在彼らはより安全な場所に移ったと伝えられる。
攻撃の1時間程あとで、英兵はその地区の捜索を始め、彼らの出鱈目な銃撃で死んだ無実の男の死体を見つけた。
伝えるところによるとこの男性は子供を近くの病院へ連れて行っていた人だ。
目撃者は多くの犠牲者がでたと伝えるが、英軍は米軍の真似をして損害を否定した。
その地域周辺の警備が厳しいために正確な犠牲者数はだせない。
この事件の前日にカブール・スタジアムも襲われたことに注意しなければならない。
そこでは3人の国際平和維持軍の兵士が死んだ。他の犠牲者の数は知られていないが、多分これより多いだろう。
これは恰もムジャヒディンがアフガニスタンのイスラムの地を侵略し、彼らの不信心をもって人々を堕落させ始めたこれらの軍隊に対する約束されたゲリラ戦を開始したかのように見える。
世界中のムスリムは、特にこれらの神聖な日々に彼らのムジャヒディンの兄弟と姉妹を思い出すように努めるべきだ。

Ibn Abbas (RA) reported that the Prophet (SAWS) said:
"There are no days in which righteous deeds are more beloved to Allah than these ten days (the first ten days of Dhul Hijjah)."
The people asked, "Not even jihad for the sake of Allah?"
He said, "Not even jihad for the sake of Allah, except in the case of a man who went out to fight giving himself and his wealth up for the cause, and came back with nothing."
(Reported in Sahih al-Bukhari)
Abu Qatadah (RA) reported that the Prophet (SAWS) said:
"Fasting on the day of Arafah is expiation for the sins of two years, the year preceeding it and the year following it."
(Reported in Sahih Muslim)
MUJAHIDEEN ATTACK BRITISH PEACEKEEPING TROOPS
KARACHI(Islam News/ Agencies):
The Mujahideen launched a surprise attack on a British checkpoint near a Bread Plant situated in the western region of Kabul.
This was the first guerrilla raid in Kabul launched by the Mujahideen.
After several minutes of severe Mujahideen fire, the British soldiers, after regaining control over their senses, returned fire but the Mujahideen succeeded in escaping.
After this attack, British soldiers were seen to be leaving this checkpoint as they knew that staying there would be unsafe.
They have now reportedly been shifted to a !Rsafer! ̄ location.
About an hour after the attack, British soldiers began to search the area, where they found the dead body of an innocent man who was killed by haphazard British return fire.
This man was reportedly taking his child to a nearby hospital.
British forces, mimicking their US counterparts, denied any losses whatsoever on their side although eye witness accounts report that there had been many casualties.
An exact number could not be determined due to the tight security around the area.
It must be noted that the Kabul stadium was also attacked a day before this incident, where three international peacekeeping soldiers were killed and the extent of other casualties are unknown and are very likely to be greater than this.
It seems as if the Mujahideen have begun the guerrilla warfare that they had promised to wage against those forces who have invaded the Islamic land of Afghanistan and have begun to corrupt the people with their disbelief.
All Muslims around the world should be encouraged to remember their Mujahideen brothers and sisters, especially in these blessed days.
