ISAF Joint Command - Afghanistan

2010-04-CA-035 
For Immediate Release\n\nIn Kunduz yesterday, an Afghan-international security force killed two militants and discovered 60 pounds of drugs. The security force was pursuing a Taliban commander in the Archi district after intelligence information indicated militant activity. During the operation the security force stopped a suspect vehicle. The two vehicle occupants exited the vehicle and the security force assessed their actions as hostile. The militants were shot and killed. A search of the vehicle revealed 60 pounds of opium gum. 

Taliban leaders conduct operations in conjunction with other Islamic militant groups with similar goals and interests. The network, like most militant organizations, has direct ties to drug trafficking. The Taliban use drug smuggling profits to buy guns and explosives to attack Afghan and coalition forces. 

No Afghan civilians were harmed during these operations.",
