  KABUL, Afghanistan (June 30, 2011)   A combined Afghan and coalition security force killed two Haqqani insurgents and detained numerous suspected insurgents during a security operation in Zurmat district, Paktika province, yesterday.
  
  The target of the operation was a Haqqani leader who plans attacks against Afghan and coalition forces. Additionally, he maneuvers fighters and weapons from Pakistan into Paktika province.
  
  The Afghan-led security force was searching for the Haqqani leader when they were attacked by multiple insurgents, armed with AK-47 rifles, upon arriving on location. Shortly after launching the attack, the armed men retreated to the targeted compound.
  
  The security force isolated the compound and called for all occupants to exit. While conducting the call-out, they were again attacked by armed insurgents from inside the compound. Responding to enemy fire, the force engaged the insurgents, killing two.
  
  During the engagement, four Afghan civilians received minor shrapnel wounds from insurgent grenades. All four were treated by the security force on site and three were transported to a medical facility for follow-up care.
  Completing the operation, the security force detained numerous associated individuals for further questioning.
