Inside the Qala-i-Jangi Uprising: CIA’s Mike Spann, Dave Tyson, John Walker Lindh

A 19th century fortress. 600 desperate fighters. Two CIA operatives outnumbered 100 to 1. This is the declassified account of the Qala-i-Jangi uprising that changed the hunt for bin Laden. From the first danger-close JDAMs dropping on the Pink House to a sat-phone call routed via the U.S. Embassy in Tashkent, every decision teeters between breakthrough and disaster. Northern Alliance tanks, F-18 strikes, and a basement turned into a flooding trap reveal just how volatile the fight became. As the uprising explodes, one operative makes a fateful stand, while the other races to keep the mission alive. And when the smoke clears, an unexpected English-speaking survivor shocks the world. Witness raw footage, hear the voices on the ground, and see how intelligence-led warfare was forged in real time at Mazar-e-Sharif. Watch to uncover how this battle shaped the CIA’s pursuit of al-Qaeda without giving away the turns you won’t see coming. Watch now to experience the full story from inside the fort. #CIA #Afghanistan #QalaiJangi #MazarESharif #MikeSpann #JohnWalkerLindh #SpecialForces #Documentary
