    KABUL - An Afghan and coalition security force detained several suspected Taliban insurgents in Nangarhar province Tuesday while in pursuit of a Taliban sub-commander involved in attack planning against Afghan and coalition forces operating in the eastern province.

    The security force targeted a compound north of Vazirin Khugyani District to search for the commander. Afghan forces called for all occupants to exit the compound peacefully and then secured the area.

    After questioning the residents, the assault force detained the suspected insurgents.

    The security force did not fire their weapons and they protected the women and children throughout the search.
