KABUL, Afghanistan (Dec. 11) – Afghan and coalition forces captured a Haqqani facilitator responsible for enabling improvised explosive device ambushes and killed several armed insurgents during an operation in Paktiya province yesterday.

 The targeted individual is believed to have facilitated and assisted in the attack on Forward Operating Base Lightning near Gardez City Dec. 5.

 The security force followed intelligence reports to a remote compound south of the city to search for the facilitator, who is also linked to the death of the Shewak district sub-governor.

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 facilitator, who was detained by the security force.

 Information gathered at the targeted compound caused the security force to move to a follow-on target nearby to search for insurgent activity. As they approached, they encountered several armed insurgents who shot at the force. The assault force returned fire, killing several insurgents. No civilians or security force members were hurt in the engagement. The security force also found multiple automatic weapons and grenades at the scene.

 The assault force protected the women and children for the duration of the search.",
