KABUL, Afghanistan (Sept. 5) - An Afghan and coalition security force detained several suspected insurgents in Paktika province Saturday while in pursuit of a Taliban sub-commander. 

The commander conducts attacks against Afghan government officials and Afghan and coalition forces. He is also involved in the facilitation of weapons and improvised explosive devices. 

Intelligence sources led the security force to a series of compounds in the village of Murwat Kheyl in Yahya Khel district, to search for the commander. As the security force approached the first compound, an insurgent armed with an AK-47 and multiple grenades threatened the force inside the targeted compound. 

The security force engaged and killed him. Additionally, multiple insurgents ran from the compound. When the security force attempted to interdict them, they also threatened the force, who subsequently engaged and killed them. An automatic weapon and multiple grenades and magazines were found with one of the insurgents. 

Afghan forces then used a loudspeaker to call for all occupants to exit the buildings of the compound peacefully and then secured the area. After questioning all the residents, the security force detained two suspected insurgents. The assault force also found multiple weapons, grenades, magazines, ammunition, IED material, including blasting caps. 

At the second compound, all of the residents complied with the Afghan call-out. After questioning at the scene, the security force detained one suspected insurgent. 

The assault force protected the women and children throughout the search.",
