KABUL, Afghanistan - Elements of the Afghan national security forces, operating independently of ISAF, discovered a large weapons cache in Kabul yesterday.
The discovery included more than 1,000 detonators with remote control units, and 700 kilograms (approximately 1,500 lbs) of explosives, sufficient to make 28 individual improvised explosive devices. Two insurgents were arrested in conjunction with the find.
"Afghan national security forces acted on credible intelligence information to plan, coordinate and carry out this operation. This is a significant amount of explosives and related equipment that won't be used to kill or injure anyone," said Navy Capt. Jane Campbell, ISAF Joint Command spokesperson.
