Prince Harry in Afghanistan fighting the Taliban



Prince Harry, third in line to the throne, has been on a secret tour of Afghanistan, it emerged today.

The Prince has been on active duty in the country since mid-December but his three-month deployment has not been reported because of a Ministry of Defence agreement with news organisations, including The Times.

The prince has been a "magnificent soldier" and an "inspiration to all of Britain".

Breaking the embargo on the news:

"...the Drudge Report in the US, an Australian magazine New Idea and the German daily Bild have broken world embargoes on the development. CNN had also "debated internally on the merits of reporting Harry at war".
