  • Prince Harry said that he killed 25 people.

  • An excerpt of the book was obtained by the Telegraph.

  • It isn't a number that fills me with satisfaction, but it isn't something that makes me cringe.

According to an excerpt of the book obtained by The Telegraph, Prince Harry wrote that he killed more than two dozen people in Afghanistan after the army told him not to view the Taliban as people.

According to The Independent, his confession is likely to make him and his family a bigger terrorist target.

Harry said he was able to come up with an exact number of enemies he had killed. I didn't want to be afraid of that number.

The Duke of Sussex was a forward air controller in the British Royal Army from 2008 to 2012 and a helicopter pilot from 2012 to 2015.

I didn't want to be scared of that number. My phone number is 25. He said that the number came from six missions during his second tour in the country.

According to Harry, the Taliban members he was fighting against were "chess pieces" in his mind.

I didn't want to go to bed with any doubts whether I had done the right thing or not. I wanted to return to Great Britain with all my limbs, but more than that, I wanted to return with my conscience intact.

Harry's reps did not reply immediately.

The Telegraph reported that it obtained a Spanish-language copy of the book from a Spanish bookstore, despite the fact that the book's publisher has not shared excerpts of the memoir.

He claimed in his memoir that the royal family wanted to view him and his wife as "villains" and that he lost his virginity to an older woman.
