Afghan Soldier Stops Suicide Bomb

Share

    The moment an Afghan bomb disposal expert risked his life to defuse a suicide vest after a failed bombing has been captured on camera. The Afghan soldier managed to disarm the would-be bomber who was hog-tied to prevent him from blowing the device up. He was captured and driven away by soldiers after the failed blast in Jalalabad. Afghan National Army (ANA) soldiers approach a suicide attacker after his vest was defused in Jalalabad province. The scene was reminiscent of the Oscar-winning film The Hurt Locker, which focused on a bomb disposal team in Iraq. Meanwhile, Afghan security forces prevented a suicide bombing in the capital Kabul when they shot dead another would-be bomber.
