The Afghanistan War
On 7 October 2001, less than four weeks after the 9/11 attacks, the US launched Operation Enduring Freedom, an assault on the Taliban in Afghanistan. While US-led forces bombed Taliban targets, ground troops of the Afghan United Front (pictured below) advanced. Within six weeks the Americans had dropped over 12,000 bombs and a number of key cities had fallen. US bombs pounded Kabul, and at some point in mid-November, Osama bin Laden’s right-hand man, Mohammad Atef, was killed in a US air strike.
