Associated Press The Spokesman-Review

CAIRO, Egypt – Al-Qaida released a video Sunday showing what it said was militants launching an attack against a U.S. military camp in Afghanistan.

The authenticity of the video could not be immediately verified, but the tape appeared on a Web site commonly used by Islamist militants and carried the logo of al-Qaida’s As-Sahab media production wing.

Al-Qaida said the tape, about four minutes long, was part of a series of videos that the terror network has released to show its insurgents are continuing to fight U.S. troops in Afghanistan.
