Linda Norgrove, a Scottish aid worker, and three Afghan colleagues were kidnapped by members of the Taliban in Kunar Province, eastern Afghanistan, on 26 September 2010. The three kidnapped Afghan aid workers were released by the Taliban on 3 October 2010 while negotiations over Norgrove`s release were ongoing. After concerns that Norgrove would be killed or moved by her captors, The United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group (NSWDG), commonly known as DEVGRU and informally by its former name SEAL Team Six (ST6) conducted a pre-dawn rescue attempt on a Taliban mountain hideout on 8 October 2010 during which she was killed.
