Afghan terror suspects escape US military base

FOUR suspected Arab terrorists broke out of a heavily-guarded US military detention facility in Afghanistan yesterday — the first time anyone has escaped — sparking a massive manhunt.

Rescuers, meanwhile, found the body of the last member of a four-man elite military team that went missing two weeks ago in the eastern mountains, ending a desperate search that started when the commandos were ambushed and a special forces helicopter was shot down as it brought 16 troops to help them.

One of the four men was rescued on July 3, and the other two were found dead the next day.
