"The gunman is thought to go by the name Gulbuddin and is believed to have had an accomplice."
Note: In another article, it stated “Gulbuddin” was a checkpoint/crossing.

“Five British soldiers shot dead”
SNIPPET: “...but tribal sources have pointed to a link with the Taliban.
Lt Col Wakefield, spokesman for Task Force Helmand, said the men who were killed had been mentoring and living with a number of Afghan police officers.
He said they had worked and lived in a compound at a national police checkpoint for the past two weeks.
The attack did not come as a result of any breakdown or fight between British and Afghan forces, he stressed.”
Thank you for the ping.
