Which of the following about the journalist Stephen Farrell is INCORRECT?

NATO troops in Afghanistan have rescued a reporter of the New York Times newspaper who had been held by the Taliban in the northern province of Kunduz since Saturday. The New York Times said the journalist Stephen Farrell was unharmed after being released in the gun battle.
    A military operation led by NATO forces rescued Stephen Farrell from a village in the northern province of Kunduz where he had been kidnapped last week while reporting on the aftermath of a NATO airstrike. In remarks quoted on the New York Times website he says he heard British and Afghan voices as bullets started flying around. That suggests that British troops were involved in the rescue although there has been no confirmation of that. Stephen Farrell’s colleague Sultan Munadi, an Afghan interpreter who’s worked for the New York Times for several years was killed in the exchange of fire.
