Taliban commander in drag killed with 52 others

I don't think the rest were in drag but the commander was attempting to evade detection by pretending to be a woman. The commander was killed when he left a surrounded house with a group of women and children. When his disguise failed him he fought and was killed.

About 33 of the other Taliban troops were killed after they attacked coalition forces patrolling in southern Helmand province. This was pretty typical of warfare in Afghanistan where the enemy makes a futile attack on our forces and the response is devastating tot he Taliban.
