Apr. 8: Afghan-ISAF Operations in Kandahar, Wardak
NEWS RELEASE ISAF Joint Command - Afghanistan   2010-04-CA-025  For Immediate Release

KABUL, Afghanistan (April 8) - An Afghan-international security force captured a Taliban improvised explosive device (IED) expert and several other militants in Kandahar Province this morning.
 The security force searched a compound just west of Kandahar City after intelligence determined militant activity. During the search the security force captured the IED expert heavily involved in IED manufacturing, emplacements and attacks throughout the Kandahar area. Several other militants were also captured.
 This capture may degrade the Taliban's IED capabilities in the Kandahar area. Because of his links to other militant networks coalition forces believe this IED expert could also provide information on other Taliban leaders.
