More than 30,000 U.S. troops have begun a massive military offensive in Afghanistan aimed at getting rid of the Taliban in certain sections of the country.
U.S. military commanders have telegraphed the start of the offensive to locals so they can avoid being caught in the middle of the crossfire.
In this video you see many local Afghans packing their belongings on trucks and cars and heading for safer ground.
CBS NEWS reports on the new offensive.
