KABUL, Afghanistan – Coalition forces killed Abdul Bari, a Taliban leader, with a precision air strike in Logar province yesterday.
Abdul Bari was a Taliban logistics leader in the province’s Pul-e ‘Alam district where he facilitated weapons and vehicles on behalf of Taliban leaders. He was directly associated with leaders of the Kabul attack network. Additionally, he collected information regarding coalition forces’ movements to be used in attack coordination.
Surveillance reports identified Abdul Bari moving in a vehicle through a rural area in Pul-e ‘Alam district. Coalition forces called in the air strike once they determined there were no civilians in the immediate area.
