KABUL, Afghanistan – Afghan and coalition forces captured another Taliban leader, during a security operation in Wardak province yesterday.
The operation came on the heels of several other successful operations in Sayyidabad and Chak-e Wardak districts this month, which has led to numerous Taliban leaders captured or killed.
The security force followed intelligence tips to a compound in Sayyidabad to search for a Taliban leader involved in attacks against coalition forces. He is associated with several other Taliban leaders recently detained by the security force in Wardak province.
Afghan forces used a loudspeaker to call for all occupants to exit the compound peacefully before the joint security force cleared and secured the buildings. Initial questioning at the scene helped identify the targeted individual, who was detained without shots fired.
The women and children remained protected and safe throughout the operation.
