KABUL, Afghanistan (Dec. 11) – Afghan and coalition forces captured another Haqqani Network leader during a security operation in Khost province yesterday.
Joint security operations in the province over the last 30 days have resulted in the peaceful capture of more than 20 Haqqani leaders and facilitators.
Intelligence tips led the security force to a compound in Terayzai district to search for the leader, who coordinates improvised explosive device attacks and facilitates weapons for insurgent cells in the area.
Afghan forces used a loudspeaker to call for all occupants to exit the targeted compound peacefully before the joint force cleared and secured the buildings. Initial questioning at the scene helped identify the leader, who was detained along with four of his associates. The security force also found multiple weapons at the scene including automatic weapons and a pistol.
The assault force did not fire their weapons and they protected the women and children for the duration of the search.", |
