[21 Oct 2013] MI6 wants more spies in Afghanistan to fight terrorism - English
Britain\'s Secret Intelligence Service-- commonly known as the MI6, wants more spies to be sent to Afghanistan. MI6 has called for reinforcements from other intelligence agencies. It says when British troops withdraw from Afghanistan next year, the country will become an \"intelligence vacuum\" where terrorists will pose an increased threat to Britain. There are around 8000 British military personnel in Afghanistan now and the number will fall to 5200 by the end of this year. Britain is to fully withdraw its military forces from Afghanistan as part of a NATO pullout by the end of 2014.
