A new undated video obtained by CBS News shows a group of fighters attacking what al Qaeda's media wing al Sahab – which produced the tape - claims is "the British military base in Helmand," Afghanistan. A small group of militants is seen launching the attack with the cameraman explaining that they're using PK machine guns, rocket-propelled grenades and sniper rifles. The militants seemed to have been targeting soldiers in the watch towers.
