Afghan security forces engaged in a gun battle on July 17 with Taliban fighters holed up in a building near Kabul's international airport. The insurgents armed with rocket-propelled grenades used the building to stage a predawn attack on the airport in one of the most audacious assaults on the facility in a year. Members of an elite police unit killed all four militants involved in the assault. (Reuters)
