Zhari District

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Zhari is a district in Kandahar Province, Afghanistan.

A 2 a.m. raid on October 18, 2006 by NATO helicopters, hunting Taliban fighters, was only half a mile from the scene of September's 2006 Operation Medusa, one of the most ferocious battles between Western forces and insurgents since the ouster of the Taliban regime in 2001.[1]
