AFGHANISTAN-US-UNREST
US marines with 1/3 marine Charlie Company cover Afghan soldiers crossing an irrigation canal in Trikh Nawar, a poppy farmland area on the North Eastern outskirts of Marjah on February 18, 2010. About 15,000 Afghan and NATO troops, led by US Marines, have been battling to wrest control of Marjah district in Helmand province from Taliban militants, who have put up stiff resistance since the operation was launched. Operation Mushtarak ("together" in Dari) is the biggest military push against the Islamists since the Taliban's 1996-2001 regime was overthrown in a US-led invasion. AFP PHOTO/PATRICK BAZ
