Taliban Dressed as Women Attempt to Ambush Georgian MRAPs - Doesn't Work
Published 7 months ago
Surveillance footage recorded by what appears to be an Aerostat blimp in 2012 shows two vehicles full of Taliban fighters dressed as women rocking up on two Georgian operated MRAPs. The Georgian troops, who were fortunately already buttoned up inside of the armored vehicles, seem so confused by the situation that they don't react for a few seconds, giving the Taliban a head start in the close range firefight.
Unfortunately for the Taliban fighters, MRAPs don't really care about small arms fire. Several of them appear to be cut down by the turret gunners as the Georgian troops casually drive away from the ambush. According to logged casualties by the Georgian Military, no troops on their end were injured or killed during this brazen near suicidal attack by the Taliban.
