The assault force decisively engaged and killed two of the enemy fighters and disarmed a third, who along with the other individuals was taken into coalition force custody.   "These weapons are getting more and more sophisticated and dangerous every day," said U.S. Army Col. Rafael Torres, International Security Assistance Force Joint Command Combined Joint Operations Center director. "Removing the experts operating in Afghanistan helps secure the roads and create a safer environment for the Afghan populace."   The women and children were protected throughout the operation.
