KABUL, Afghanistan (June 24, 2011)
A combined Afghan and coalition security force detained several suspected insurgents during a security operation targeting a senior al-Qaida facilitator in Gelan district, Ghazni province, yesterday. The facilitator, who typically operates in Pakistan, helps plan terrorist operations and moves fighters, money and materials into Afghanistan and Pakistan.   

The Afghan-led security force searched for the facilitator at a compound where they identified five individuals with suspected ties to al-Qaida. The men were transported with the force for additional questioning.
