KABUL, Afghanistan (April 28, 2011) 
In Khost province, a combined Afghan and coalition security force detained several individuals with suspected ties to insurgency while searching for a Haqqani network facilitator during a security operation in Sabari district, yesterday. The facilitator prepares explosive devices used for attacks against the Afghan National Army and coalition forces.
The combined security force targeted a compound in the district base on multiple intelligence reports of insurgent activity in the area. They isolated the area and called for all occupants to exit the buildings. All residents complied with the force’s request, allowing them to ensure the safety of the women and children. During their search the force interviewed residents about the location of the facilitator. Several suspected Haqqani insurgents were detained for further questioning as a result of the interviews.
