Sniper: Special Ops

A special operations team led by sniper Sergeant Jake Chandler travels to a remote village in Afghanistan to rescue an American congressman from the Taliban. Although the initial mission succeeds, Chandler is separated from his unit during a firefight and stays behind to assist injured soldiers. Despite receiving orders from Major Jackson to focus on other tasks, Sergeant Vic Mosby and his team defy their superiors and return to the village to save their comrades, facing a numerically superior enemy force.
