Résumé

"Operation Anaconda: The 2002 U. S. Military Operation in Eastern Afghanistan" is an in-depth examination of one of the early, critical battles in the U. S. war in Afghanistan. Focused on the intense fighting in the Shahi-Kot Valley in March 2002, this book offers a comprehensive account of the operation, detailing the planning, execution, and aftermath of this pivotal military engagement. The book begins with an overview of the geopolitical context and the events leading up to Operation Anaconda.

The narrative then delves into the strategic importance of the Shahi-Kot Valley and the intelligence that led to the launch of the operation. Each chapter methodically explores different facets of Operation Anaconda, from the coalition forces' composition and the operational planning to the execution of ground and air assaults.
The author provides a detailed account of the battles, the tactics employed by both U. S. and coalition forces, and the formidable resistance they faced from al-Qaeda and Taliban fighters. A significant focus of the book is the analysis of the challenges and shortcomings of the operation. This includes the difficulties in terrain, the underestimation of enemy strength, and the complications arising from coordination among diverse military units from different nations.
The book also explores the role of emerging technologies in warfare, such as the use of drones and modern communication systems, which were crucial in this operation."Operation Anaconda" also discusses the broader implications of the battle on the course of the war in Afghanistan.
