IJC Operational Update, March 9(0)
March 9, 2010
In Khowst, an Afghan-international security force searched a compound outside the village of Galyan, in the Sabari District after intelligence information indicated militant activity. During the search the joint team captured a Haqqani commander, the military leader of a substantial number of fighters responsible for planning and executing attacks against coalition forces throughout the district. Several other insurgents were captured during the search.

Afghan troops, assisted by coalition forces, cordoned and searched an insurgent supply route used to transport and harbor roadside bombs in Afghanistan’s Helmand province.
