Operation Medusa: Documentary recounts Canada’s toughest battle in Afghanistan
Description
November 10, 2024
During Operation Medusa in 2006, Canadian troops were ordered to attack a Taliban stronghold in Afghanistan. It was a brutal, seven-hour gunfight that had a lasting impact on the war against the Taliban. During one weekend, five Canadian soldiers were killed and another 40 wounded. Mercedes Stephenson has more on the documentary 'White School Black Memories,' which tells that story.
