Operation Barras: SAS Rescue Op in Sierra Leone
Late summer in 2000, the UK’s military had its first real fight of the 21st century. It Wasn't some big war or battle directly involving the UK and its personal adversaries like you might expect. Instead, it was a raid mission against enemy strongholds to rescue military soldiers held by a militia group in a war-torn Sierra Leone, West Africa. In this video, we will tell you everything you need to know about the UK military’s daring mission to rescue soldiers smack in the middle of a country torn apart by civil war. Watch to the end to see the aftermath and long-term effect of the brutal clash between the UK military and their enemy.
