    KABUL, Afghanistan – Coalition forces conducted a precision air strike in Khost province Wednesday targeting a Haqqani Network senior leader who coordinates and conducts attacks against Afghan and coalition forces.

    Coalition forces observed the senior leader with a group of insurgents in a remote area of Khost district as they were emplacing an improvised explosive device along the road. After careful planning to avoid civilian causalities, coalition forces conducted the precision air strike, killing several insurgents.

    ISAF is still trying to verify if the targeted individual was among those killed in the strike.
