The Battle of Arghandab, codenamed Operation IBRAT (lit. admonition) by the insurgents, began on June 18, 2008, when NATO-led forces attacked Taliban militants in response to Taliban attacks in Arghandab District and Kandahar in Afghanistan. The battle in Arghandab marked the second time in less than a year that the Taliban tried to take control of the area.
