- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2021
- In May 2007, UK Special Forces, including the S.B.S. and their partners in 7 Squadron, R.A.F., conducted a night-time raid in Helmand Province, Southern Afghanistan. Their target was Mullah Dadullah, the Taliban's Chief Military Commander. This is the story of that operation.

Huge respect to UK forces from your brothers in the US🇺🇸🇬🇧
Always be brothers in arms 🇬🇧🇺🇸
Likewise fella 💪💯
@@thekingslyy1995 all the the shit that is being reported lately, is exactly that.shit.
I fought beside Americans before and trained on your soil, best experience I've ever had, 🇺🇲🏴🇬🇧
👍👍
Respect for all military forces that served in Afghanistan! You did the best you couldand nobody could have done it better, only politicians are to blame here. Thank you for your service! Edit:
Also wanna thank all my family members for their service. We go way back to WWII, Korea, Dutch East-Indies, Lebanon, Afghanistan, and more service members currently serving in both Navy, Royal Dutch Marines and Sappers. Bless you all! Big shout out to my youngest cousin who's doing a great job in the military right now. So proud of you!
Kinda like all wars..
Generals too…
Watching videos of what was occurring at HKIA was beyond my comprehension.
During my two tours the only time I ever got so close to anyone affiliated with the Taliban/Insurgency was either when patching them up after being captured, or DNA swabbing and finger printing (for intel IDs) whatever was left of them following an engagement.
To witness armed militants mere feet away from NATO lads without shots being fired or even a crossed word seemingly being said absolutely battered me, as it has done for so many of us who witnessed first hand how thoroughly despicable and ruthless they were and will nk doubt continue to be.
God bless those 13 US service personnel, and the innocent civilians who lost their lives last week. A completely unnecessary waste of life, which is how this entire conflict can be best summed up.
Gratitude for saying that will be well received bro. Bless mate🙏🏴🇬🇧🇺🇸✊✌️
@@residentelect bless you pal. 🙏🕯
Men of steel. In and out like shadows in the night. No dramas, no worries. SBS= Elite.
Practice makes perfect!
Sbs really are the best of the best
If it was the SEALS we would have known about the mission from multiple books, movies etc.
The Elite of the Elite!
Savages n various PMC have defaced humanity to act it pay back as Isis left a strung and hung Wagner operator skinned. Wagner did the same and wanted for war crimes. Send them all in from PMC Africa who grew up chopping everything. Plenty men would go in Evil with evil. Only difference being sometimes you need to act wrong to be right. Daesh is nurtured culture. Central African, any African PMC or merc it’s culture & brutal if an enemy sees it’s a little mental win. Peace and love bro🙏✌️🕯
I blame the politicians for the mess in Afghanistan right now.British and US forces have protected our freedom and liberty 150% for 20 years. We should not forget that.Thank you for making the world a safer place. RESPECT.
The problem is that America is ALWAYS too optimistic that event the most backwards cultures on Earth will somehow rise to the level of a functioning democracy. The Afghanis are not a developed enough people to be ready for democracy in this century.
The native British are on course to become a min ority in their own homeland, for the ideology these boys are tricking into fighting for.
West and America is responsible for everything that’s going on in Afghanistan from last 40 years shame on America and west war criminals
Well done our lads from the SBS 🇬🇧👍🏻
Nice video of the taking out of an insurgent Commander - hearts and minds - 2 to the heart and 1 to the mind. Respect from Canada and to the S.B.S. Cheers
2 to the heart and 1 to the mind - brilliant, I'm going to use this line :-D
Cheers bud
@@user-rf9mx4qf7zsuck it his fighters kicked u scumbags in the worst way possible you guys thought war would end with his death no it only made things worst we all know what happened to SBS after Dadullah’s death
Can't wait to see what Helmand Province holds in store for us now.
ilocosmetro: A lot more hostages I would imagine.
Watch the News later, you'l see.
4 dead us marines at afgan Airport attack
@@sunnycat69 11 marines, a corpsman, and about 60 Afghan non combatants now

Every one of those lads and lasses in and around MKIA must have been on edge 24/7, as it wasn't a matter of if, but _when_ someone/something got through.
I was nervous just watching the news footage of British and US personnel operating mere feet from Taliban/Insurgency fighters and the thousands upon thousands of civilians.
I don't enjoy discussing politics as it isn't my area of expertise, but from being over there myself and still having friends serving, all I can say is Biden and his administration have blood on their hands. Both American and Afghan blood.
God bless all of those who died needlessly not only last week, but over the past twenty years as well.
Just noticed you've reached 200k subs great stuff.
Really like that you have been bringing these to us at a decent pace. There’s nothing more than I would love is to get one of these a day! Keep up the outstanding work.
I remember this. Two months later in Barla, Qarabaugh a large gathering of Taliban were reportedly meeting to pick a replacement and were engaged by US forces.
Im proud Patreon of this excellent channel.
Excellent content as always man. Thoroughly enjoy this channel. Keep it lit👌
should of went to the Winchester for a pint and let it all blow over.
Dogs can't look up.
Underrated reference
Can't thank ya enough for your work
Always good to see more SF videos :-) Congrats on 200k subs!
Keep up the good work! I really like your channel contents. 🇵🇭
Thanks for your work!
really enjoy your content especially the modern stuff
This exemplifies the bravery and selflessness of our servicemen, who do what is asked, without hesitation, time and again. Respect to all those involved in the ISAF mission over the last 20 years.
Ultimately though we have all been disgraced and dishonoured by our spineless politicians, who after expending so much blood and treasure, we simply walk away and leave the entire Afghan nation to their sad fate.
All those lives lost, limbs gone, shattered bodies and the ongoing mental torture, and for what??
Let us not forget the sacrifice of the brave, but also let us not forget the despicable callousness of our leaders. Truly lions led by donkeys.
So what is the answer? More lives lost, more limbs gone, more shattered bodies for another 20, 30 or 40 years? There is only so much blame to be placed on the politicians here. The militaries involved lost so much institutional knowledge and fumbled operations over and over again. The troops were not invested in the mission or the welfare of Afghans (after all, some of them were literal toddlers when 9/11 happened), they distrusted the local populace and spent most of their time in the wire counting down the days till their tour was over. The Officers were trained for a diametrically opposed type of warfare and spent most of their time making powerpoint presentations of the great ideas they had to pitch to senior brass because there was no way to earn merit in an epic battlefield action. And the Senior Brass? Wondering how much they can get the DoD to spend so they can secure a nice comfy position on the boards of Raytheon, Lockheed-Martin or General Dynamics.
The rot is institutional. "The politicians are to blame" is an easy scapegoat that will contribute to further disasters in the future.
I've really missed your uploads
This channel is 🔥
Daily reminder that this is one of the top 100 channels of RUclips.
I have plans to join up with the services in the future because of men like this.
They are heros who walk among us.
😂😂😂😂😂
2 to his chest and 1 to his brain! Nice triple tap boys
Interesting video thank you
I love a happy ending!!! Great video as always! Thank you.
Bit ally these videos haha great work 👍🏻
I guess you could say that this guy does his research
Well done lads, that's how you turn a shit prisoner exchange into a winner. Rule Britania!! 🇬🇧🇬🇧
With a special mention to our American brothers and their top class intelligence gathering 🇺🇸🤝🇬🇧
It's difficult to put into words the work that must've went into this to make this work.
Again, congratulations to everybody involved.
Also, to the hostages who went through a nightmare but it wasn't a waste, those mental scars you must surely have hopefully get some healing if any of you have gotten to see either this video or what came from it.
Thanks also to the country who will pay for their hostages because they all would almost certainly be dead if it wasn't for that happening.
Great episode, as always LFE.
Nice video
No matter what happens today or tomorrow, you did your mission with utmost skill.
Tough brothers, great job..
Great video! This really is one of the best channels of its kind on RUclips. You really don't want to attract the attention of the S.B.S.! It won't end well for you.🇬🇧
SBS are badass, no interviews or book deals, true silent professionals.
LOL OK Doofus..... you know Ant Middleton is SBS right????
@@gregtaylor6146 name more then .now if you name ten british SF I myself will be able to point you in the direction of thousands of American sf on RUclips alone. Ant is an outlier that's all. The rest probably know better..
@@krtcampbell9007 - US SF are NOT SBS luvvie, do try and keep up?
@@gregtaylor6146 have you worked with any sf mate. When where what OP. Dates of tour. Do try and son. In case you dont get it then get back on C.O.D or watch some XXX or james bond. Ok darling
@@krtcampbell9007 - I am far from your 'mate' Dearie, this isn't a dating site, try G R I N D R, sounds like it'd be right up your passage?
A few more operations like this about now might be useful.
When you want to know where the roaches are coming from you turn out the lights. Wait then turn the lights back on full beam and watch were they run. Soon the pak ISS will let there senior talban out of there safe houses then it will be time to send out our pest control.
Great pleasure to see something about the SBS.
What a shame Sleepy Joe and wittless Hunter have pissed it all against the wall!
Sweet♥️
hell yeah! Great story.
The British just get it done with extreme professionalism and finesse. Badass🤘🏽
😂😂😂😂😂 we have seen them how brave British are 😂😂😂😂 kid believe it or not SBS are still pissing in the sleep when they hear Dadullah name 😂😂
Job Done N1👍
Thank you all for what you do much appreciated
I thought this had literally happen 4 hours ago when I saw this!
Thank you for all who serve, or served and may God bless all who gave the ultimate sacrifice for America to be America 🇺🇸🙏
I feel really sorry for everyone affected either directly or indirectly on whatever side on yet another pointless war.
SBS done their job well. 2 chest, 1 head. Great video, congratulations on reaching 200k.🇬🇧
SBS piss them selves they still can’t have sleep in peace when they hear Dadullah’s name
As always great and accurate material.Great maps and markings.
Great action and operational success SBS 🇬🇧
Great respect 🕊️🤝
BOWS !
What a wild coincidence but I was in bahram chah with 3rd LAR when we went in to clear it again in early 2011
A huge hats off to our military. Thank you to all who have served in defence of our country.
It hurts my feelings that the sacrifices of all the armed forces who fought the talibans went to waste just because of politics
From my POV the root cause of this is assuming those folks want and value what we want/value (freedom, prosperity, etc.)
Even Alexander the Great made the same inaccurate assumption.
It’s complicated bc it’s the height of hubris to make that assumption but also births from, in our POV, a morally upstanding place
Onwards and upwards
i'm trying to workout if your point is referring to the video, the afghanis or the withdrawal. in any case folks tend to want a warm bed, a full tummy and a solid piece of roofing over their heads. not some militia guy braking down the door, chopping off their heads and selling their daughters
If this was a raid done by the seals theyd be making a movie already
Your video has done the SBS proud. Great work. The Italian journalist should feel like sh%t for starting this ball of bs rolling.
Why? He didn't start it. This guy was a top Taliban leader, they wanted to get him for a long time. The journalist just accidentally helped them get a lead on him. It's not like the raid was to get the journalist out of trouble.
When will you do the Great Emu War?
Stay tuned, coming 1 April, 2022.
Or the Cod Wars?
Why is the map not representative? Do we not know the actual precise location of the raid?
"Mozambique drill" two to the chest one to the head. A close-quarters shooting technique intended to ensure that the target is immediately stopped.
United we stand, divided we fall. Kind regards from London.🇬🇧🇺🇸
😂😂😂 war criminals
Operation hk35 by commando trepel of french commando marine would be very interesting
And all for Nothing!! Afghans must love the Taliban, or they would have fought harder to keep them out so I'm afraid they deserve them.
My favorite video was the NZSAS in Kabul with the CRU but you got rid of it. Could you please re-release it.
I would imagine RUclips deemed it too sensitive.
@@woodybenjam I don't think so, LfE has mentioned in some comments that he took some videos down because he wasn't happy with the quality. Seems strange to me, because most of us thought the quality was fine, but it's his choice, I guess.
Total respect for our military heroes
Oooi ty
May be Number Seven Royal Air Force Squadron needs to be renamed Number Seven Special Operations Squadron (7 SOS).
Job done. Double tap to the chest and the coup de grace. Fittingly, that's the medieval way.
I should be studying for my exam but here I am 🤣
i need a Dabullah rn
Moolah da doo lah, lmao. great name bro.
Wabulluhu fam inni
Your SBS are still pissing In sleep just from hearing his name 😂😂😂
@@Ror747 G for joke mate, calm down
Nice work by the shaky boats. I sincerely hope that the four injured operators were able to make full recoveries. That information is rarely shared by the UK MoD, so we will likely never know.
I wonder what will happen now in Afghanistan? It's so similar to Vietnam it's not even funny...
No, it is not just similar
I used to sit beside a guy at work who was in the SBS in Afghanistan, amongst other places. He had some great stories but most of them involved Thai ladyboys. He never talked much about mission specifics like this. I wonder if he was involved.
So I asked him and, yes he was. His first reaction was, “how the fuck do you know about that, they aren’t making a shitty film or something, are they?” He was relieved to find out they weren’t.
Nice
Did he happen to know Nims SBS gurkha
@@jeffwy5164 lmao SBS aint like navy seals
I hope thay will be a video on this operation by the SBS.
August 2008 - Mullah Multan - The SBS and 3 Para raided the fort of Taliban drug-lord, Mullah Multan.
Lives lost to suit the political narrative and now the narrative has changed, just dispose of our guys without a bud or leave.
We will remember them
🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄
fast forward to 2021...🤣🤣🤣
Why the SBS and not the SAS?
@@x1fa824 Thanks for your information 😊
SAS were in Iraq at this point
Wonder where they stuck the gps on these guys?
No GPS, probably just used his phone.
Taliban had the last laugh in the end.
All of this was for nothing and now they are stronger than ever after 20 years of war.
Why didnt they arrest him
All for nought :(
They gave him a Mozambique! Yeah he’s brown bread for sure!
Moola Dadoola..... You can't make this shit up......
'Neutralised'. Blew the bast@rds head off! Respect to all who served ! 'Lions led by donkeys'.
EZ PZ lemon SQWEEZY
Mullah dulldullah what in the dr suess type of name is that😂😂
Afghanistan has millions of Dadullah only his name is still enough for his enemies believe it or not, SBS are still pissing themselves in sleep when they hear Dadullah’s name 😂😂😂
Just read the book on this by Andy McNab - The Hunt. Great book, worth reading. An AC-130 helped them breach the compound.
The militaries of the coalition forces did an outstandung job, having to contend with a harsh climate, hardy and resilient enemies, locals who were accustomed to casual and part time warfare, and of course their own bummbling governments who had no plans of nation building, and yet installed a bummbling and corrupt government and tried to prop it up for decades after it and they lost the support of the Afgan people. Coalition forces that could not win back the trust and confidence of the locals as they had at the most crucuial moment of all, at the very start when the Afgan people were on side and many risked their own lives to try to build a better country and payed that ultimate price, been withdrawn from country.
The harsh truth of the matter is that if you lose credibility with the locals you are meant to be protecting you become just another armed band roaming the countryside. You kill an enemy and another takes his place, you annhilate their forces and merely drive them underground. You must destroy their base. Remove their credibility and win the hearts and minds of those that would otherise support your enemy or be indifferent.
All this to say the issue was our leadership.
Asside from the fucking blatant murderers they are no better in a uniform and this kind of behaviour damages the reputation of our nations and our armies and endagers the lives of our citizens overseas.
But asside from these few individuals massive respect to all those that served and fought. As a regular civy I pay your wages and respect you for your professionalism.
And all for naught...
We'll done to our lads for slashing the tally tubbies
I know its awful to say but Afghanistan was a live fire training mission, we've learned so much in how to fight modern wars, every major nation apart from Chiha bloodies their soldiers too keep them match fit, China will learn this lesson soon enough
That's the difference between UKSF and US. The US use the technological hammer, dropping a bomb. UKSF are surgical in comparison.
LOL!
Karzai was a puppet and so was ashraf ghani, abdullah abdullah, ahmad masood, khalili, Dostum, atta muhammad noor and every single one of the slave government in the past 20 years and were involved in all types of crimes from being slaves to being corrupt and most of all a lot of them including dostum and others were involved in child abuse(bacha bazi) and other crimes.
Taliban are the true Afghans and true sons of Afghanistan.
Dadullah fought like a champion and died like one.
As far as it's the question of the translators I want to ask Americans that what would you do to an American translator who would work for a mexican occupying force if Mexico was to invade usa or some other country.
What would you call the translators working for a foreign invading force?
Be honest and answer.
I like turtles 🐢
Simple, you murder one we kill one.
The only thing they'd raid is their granny's knickers drawer
Yeah man you have everybody laughing
🤓
Well that turned out to be a waste of time, didn't it.
Next time you are invited to a war, decline politely.
The West was always going to pull out of Afghanistan at some stage so blaming anybody is pointless. No one can control Afghanistan and no one ever has. The Russians pulled out and so did the British Empire way back when. That said going into Afghanistan started as a worthy effort to rid the world of some very nasty people. All this makes me wonder if perhaps the West should develop new tactics. Do the bit that they are good at and go in and wipe out the bad guys. But then simply pull out and leave the country in a mess. Let the locals sort themselves out and if you don't like the result go in and do it again. I originally had this idea when they invaded Iraq. Very few western soldiers were killed in the invasion. The nasty bit happened afterwards when they tried to hold the country.
It’s squadron not service
Nope service. Squadron was before, now it’s the Special Boat service
