MoD will not confirm SAS firefight claims - Ananova
====================================

The Ministry of Defence will not confirm reports of an SAS firefight with
Taliban troops near Kabul.

There have been press reports that a four-man SAS team, which had been in
Afghanistan for five days, was fired upon in the foothills after disturbing
Taliban soldiers.

The Ministry of Defence has refused to confirm or deny any rumours regarding
"operational matters".

The Sunday Times and the Mail on Sunday both reported the SAS team had
escaped unhurt.

The MoD spokesman told the BBC: "There is a lot of speculative material
floating around. We never discuss matters pertaining to the special forces.

"At the moment, Britain is in the phase of looking at what assistance we can
offer to the US if they decide to take military action. That is where the
bulk of our efforts lies."
