The Taliban Have Gone High-Tech. That Poses a Dilemma for the U.S. - The New York Times
'With the night-vision devices, Taliban fighters have been able to approach Afghan bases nearly undetected before attacking. '
'Last year, and with better results, night-vision equipment was sent to the 205th Corps, located around Kandahar, the military documents showed. '
'Initially, such ambushes were attributed to Taliban forces known as “Red Units” located in Afghanistan’s southern provinces. '
'Zabihullah Mujahid, a spokesman for the Taliban, said fighters obtained night-vision devices after attacking Afghan bases or capturing members of the Afghan security forces. '
'In one case last November, Taliban fighters wearing night-vision goggles attacked a police outpost in Farah Province, in western Afghanistan. '
