  Release #066
  
  KUNDUZ, Afghanistan (June 18, 2011)  Members of the 3rd Company, 5th Commando Kandak, advised by U.S. Special Operations Forces, conducted clearing operations to disrupt the insurgent threat in Nahr-i Sufi village, Chahar Darreh district, June 16. 
  
  The operation resulted in the detention of four suspects possibly involved with the manufacturing and emplacing of improvised explosive devices in the district. 
  
  The destruction of this IED network will remove the primary threat to Konduz-Takhar government officials and will reduce imminent insurgent threat on village stability operations sites, said a SOF team leader. 
  
  No property damage or civilian injuries were reported during the operation.
