NEWS RELEASE ISAF Joint Command - Afghanistan  2010-04-CA-014  For Immediate Release

KABUL, Afghanistan (April 5) - An Afghan-international security force went to a compound north of Khozakheyl, in the Khugyani district of Nangarhar Province, after intelligence information verified militant activity last night. As the combined force entered the compound area they were fired upon by heavily armed men. In the ensuing firefight two militants were shot and killed.
 While securing the compound, the joint force called for all individuals to come out of barricaded buildings to surrender. No one emerged from the buildings, and the joint force received small-arms fire from the buildings. Other individuals outside the buildings opened fire with rocket propelled grenades, and the assault force returned fire, killing eight militants and wounded another. The wounded individual was treated and transported to a Coalition hospital.
 After the firefight the combined force found a weapons cache with multiple automatic rifles, rocket propelled grenades, IED materials and communications equipment.
 No civilians were harmed during this operation.
