  KABUL, Afghanistan (May 15) - An Afghan-international combined force killed several militants and captured several as they searched for a Taliban leader in Baghlan last night.  The security force went to a compound in a rural area of the Baghlan-e Jedid district after intelligence information indicated insurgent activity. At the compound, the Afghan members of the assault force called for the insurgents to surrender, but the individuals refused to lay down their arms and engaged the security force.  The combined force returned fire and several militants were killed. Other insurgents surrendered and were detained. Two of the militants, including one woman who attempted to engage the assault force with an automatic rifle, were wounded. All wounded individuals were medically evacuated to a nearby hospital.  No civilians were harmed, and the search team found multiple automatic rifles, grenades and tactical communications equipment.
