Four others were injured in the incident which killed Corporal Nathan Hornburg, who was operating as part of Operation Sadiq Sarbaaz (“Honest Soldier”) approximately 47 kilometres west of Kandahar City in Panjwaii District. Corporal Hornburg was a member of the King's Own Calgary Regiment, a Reserve armoured unit based in Calgary, Alberta, and was serving with the Lord Strathcona's Horse (Royal Canadians) while in Afghanistan. Operation Sadiq Sarbaaz is a joint Afghan-NATO mission designed to, in the words of the Canadian Forces statement, "set the conditions for a continuous security presence and the establishment of a new police sub-station in the northern part of (Panjwaii)." Seventy-one Canadian soldiers and one Canadian diplomat have died since Canada first deployed to Afghanistan in 2001.
