British soldiers dropped Afghan prisoners off forklifts ‘for fun'
Witnesses told the UK’s independent Afghanistan Inquiry that British special forces threw Afghan detainees from forklifts for fun.
According to the witnesses, British soldiers placed Afghan detainees on forklifts, raised them into the air and drove at speed so they would fall off for entertainment.
The inquiry also heard claims that three Afghan farmers were unlawfully killed and that attempts were made to cover up the incidents.
The inquiry, established by the UK Ministry of Defence, is examining allegations of war crimes committed by British special forces in Afghanistan between 2010 and 2013.

🇳🇱 UPDATE: Malak Mahmoud, the heavily pregnant woman filmed being thrown to the ground and dragged by Dutch police at an asylum seekers’ center in Zeist in May, has filed a criminal complaint against the officers involved, her legal team said.
The complaint alleges attempted grievous bodily harm, assault, and a breach of use-of-force rules, according to the European Legal Support Center, which is backing her case with lawyer Willem Jebbink. It follows a police integrity committee’s finding that the violence had been “necessary,” a conclusion reached by the force investigating itself, the ELSC noted, without publishing the investigation’s contents. Mahmoud, who fled war in Syria and had gone to the Netherlands seeking safety with her husband, a Palestinian from Gaza, went into early labor after the May 19 incident and gave birth days later.
“This fight is about accountability for institutional racism and violence inflicted on asylum seekers in general, and Palestinians in particular,” ELSC said.
