KABUL- Afghan and coalition forces captured a Taliban weapons facilitator responsible for the coordination and acquisition of weapons distributed to Taliban commanders operating in Kandahar province during an operation in the province Wednesday.
Acting on intelligence tips, Afghan and coalition forces went to a compound outside Kandahar City in Daman District to search for the facilitator. Afghan forces used a loudspeaker to call for all occupants to exit the compound peacefully and then secured the area.
After questioning the residents at the scene, the security force identified and detained the facilitator along with one of his associates.
The ground security force did not fire their weapons and they protected the women and children for the duration of the search.
