8[quote author=Nomyúth post=139712926]Wow, how did I forget that?

Watched a documentary on it on National Geographic.

In 2000, Britain had deployed troops to Sierra Leone under Operation Palliser to evacuate foreign nationals and help stabilize the country as rebels threatened the capital, Freetown. British forces were also assisting the Sierra Leonean Army and UN peacekeepers.

On 25 August 2000, a patrol of soldiers from the Royal Irish Regiment entered territory controlled by a notorious militia known as the West Side Boys.

The patrol was captured and taken hostage. Negotiations secured the release of some captives, but six British soldiers and a Sierra Leonean officer remained prisoners. Reports suggested the hostages faced beatings, mock executions, and worsening conditions.

The Rescue Plan

British commanders decided that negotiations had reached their limit and authorized a military rescue.
The operation involved:

The Special Air Service (SAS) as the main assault force.
The Special Boat Service (SBS) in support.
The 1st Battalion, Parachute Regiment (1 PARA) conducting a simultaneous attack on a nearby militia stronghold.
Chinook and Lynx helicopters transporting and supporting the assault force.

The Assault

At dawn on 10 September 2000, helicopters carried British special forces into the jungle village of Gberi Bana, where the hostages were being held. The assault was fast and violent. SAS troops raced to reach the prisoners before the militia could kill them. Meanwhile, paratroopers attacked another West Side Boys position at Magbeni to prevent reinforcements.

Within a short time ,all remaining British hostages were rescued.
The Sierra Leonean liaison officer was freed.
More than twenty civilian captives were also liberated.
The West Side Boys suffered heavy losses and effectively ceased to be a significant fighting force.

Casualties

The operation was a success, but it was not without cost.
One British serviceman, Trooper Brad Tinnion of the SAS, was killed.
Several British soldiers were wounded.
At least 25 militia fighters were killed, and many others were captured or later surrendered.[/quote]enteebe raid was the most daring. right from the secret trip to africa, flying along the edge of africa from north of it,tracing it down to part of South Africa, then up again to uganda, as taking direct route through Egypt, sudan and those north African states close to Israel would have tipped uganda, as they weren't in good terms and flew close to ground, not higher than height of 3 poles to avoid radar detection, landed inside the airport unnoticed, carrying convoy look alike vehicles of idi Amin to get to the tarmac where the hostages were with the captors. the only casualty was netanyahu elder brother, Jonathan, and it was after the operation during the loading back to Israel

What is the difference between microfinance bank and access bank?
micro finance dont steal money. they dont do the monthly 400 deductions and ATM maintenance of 100# each month. if you send above 10k, its 10# they take.belpw 10k is free. ussd is less than 3 naira charge per transaction, not like banks that colley 20# and still collect 350 every month for ussd charges again
