ISAF Joint Command - Afghanistan

For Immediate Release

In another joint operation today, an Afghan-international security force
detained several suspected militants in Kandahar province after
searching a compound known to be used by a Taliban financier and
facilitator.

The joint force targeted the compound approximately five miles southwest
of Kandahar City.  The force searched the compound without incident and
detained the suspected militants, including the Taliban financier and
facilitator.  No shots were fired, and no one was injured.

The Taliban uses an extensive network of supply routes in
southern Afghanistan to arm and equip its militant elements within the
country.  Afghan and international security forces consistently partner
personnel and resources to block these routes and ensure the safety and
well being of the Afghan people.",
