Canada will move helicopters and unmanned aircraft to Afghanistan to increase surveillance of roads, Canada's defence minister said on Saturday, as the Taliban stepped up attacks in spite of a large Nato force in the country.
Canadian Defence Minister Peter MacKay told Reuters on the sidelines of a security conference that six to 10 medium-heavy lift helicopters, such as Chinooks, and some unmaned aircraft would be delivered to Afghanistan by February 2009.
