Control of the
industrial facility and
harbor at Karkand
motivate this assault by
United States forces,
where they find Middle
Eastern Coalition forces
marshalling to defend
the industrial city and
determined to meet this
attack with stiff
resistance. The terrain
surrounding Karkand
sufficiently opens to
allow for sweeping
fields of fire but the
open ground increases
the danger posed by
anti-vehicle missiles
and sniping. It is thus
vital for both sides to
secure firebases in
Karkand’s sheltered city
center.
