Afghan Massacre - the Convoy of Death (film)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Afghan Massacre: Convoy of Death is a 2002 documentary by Irish documentary filmmaker Jamie Doran about alleged war crimes committed on Taliban soldiers in November 2001 after they had surrendered to America’s Afghan allies after the siege of Kunduz. It shows eyewitnesses relating how people were transported in containers for several days, some of them suffocated, others died when the containers were fired upon "in order to make holes for the air to get in" - this was later alluded to in the Turkish movie Valley of the Wolves. US military and CIA agents were allegedly present. Mass graves of thousands of victims were found by the United Nations but no official investigation took place.
