KABUL, Afghanistan (Nov. 11) – The International Security Assistance Force confirmed the capture of the Taliban district leader for Bala Boluk during an overnight operation in Farah province Monday.

Reportedly, the district chief has claimed responsibility for numerous improvised explosive device attacks against civilians as well as Afghan and coalition forces.

Intelligence reports led the security force to a compound in Bakwah district to search for the district leader. 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 compound. After initial questioning at the scene, the security force detained the district chief along with four of his associates. 

The security force did not fire their weapons during this operation.",
