    KABUL - The International Security Assistance Force confirmed the capture of the Taliban District commander in charge of Nawah-ye Barakzai District during an Afghan and coalition force operation Saturday.

    The security force targeted a compound in remote Marjah District in pursuit of the commander, who had recently returned from Pakistan. As the assault force approached the compound, two males attempted to escape but the security force captured them peacefully. It was later determined one of the detainees was the targeted individual.

    Afghan and coalition forces did not fire their weapons during the operation.
