U.K.'s `SAS' Soldiers Clash With Taliban Troops, Paper Reports
By Richard Blackden 


Kabul, Afghanistan, Sept.  23 (Bloomberg) -- British ``SAS'' soldiers
clashed with forces from Afghanistan's Taliban regime late on Friday,
though nobody was hurt, the Sunday Times reported, citing an
unidentified person close to the SAS. 

Taliban soldiers fired after being ``spooked'' by a small team of the
U.K.  special operation force near Kabul, the Afghan capital.  The SAS
soldiers may have entered the country from neighboring Tajikistan, the
paper said. 

The U.S.  says Sept.  11 terrorists in New York and Washington D.C. 
were masterminded by the Saudi Arabian-born terrorist Osama bin Laden. 
Bin Laden is based in Afghanistan and has been protected by the ruling
Taliban government. 

SAS soldiers are working with the U.S.  Central Intelligence Agency as
well as anti-Taliban groups within Afghanistan in a bid to locate bin
Laden, the paper said.  The SAS, or Special Air Service regiment of the
British Army, is equivalent to the U.S.  Navy Seals. 

U.S.  President George W.  Bush has said U.S.  retaliation for the Sept. 
11 attacks, which left more than 6,000 presumed dead, may include covert
operations.
