Nato Troops Killed While Handing Out Candy

Just recently Canadian based NATO troops were handing out candy in southern Afganistan a bike bomb killed 4 troops and injured many other troops and civilians. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack. They were handing out candy a day after NATO declared an end to a two-week offensive aimed at pushing Taliban militants out of safe havens in that area. They have identified the man who was on the bike by the name of Mullah Qudrat Ullah.

The Taliban have taken over several areas just out of the places they have been driven out of. They also say that the attacks on Nato forces will not stop in protection of what should be theirs. There have been several reports of the militants firing rocket-propelled grenades and heavy machine-guns to set places on fire as a method of taking over. In response NATO has said it will send more troops if the attacks continue or worsen.
