KABUL, Afghanistan (Nov. 3, 2010) — An Afghan and coalition security force captured a Haqqani Network facilitator for weapons, fighters and equipment used in attacks, along with more than 10 of his associates during an overnight operation in Khost province.

 Intelligence reports led the security force to a compound north of Majles in Sabari district to search for the facilitator. Afghan forces used a loudspeaker to call for all occupants to exit the buildings peacefully, and then the joint security force cleared and secured the area. 

After initial questioning at the scene, the security force identified and detained the facilitator and his associates.

 The security force discovered multiple automatic weapons along with a machine gun, pistol, grenades, silencer and various types of ammunition at the scene. \n[...]
