The Taliban leader was responsible for coordinating and directing insurgent fighters in Nangarhar province and maintained direct operational control on a significant number of suicide bombers prepared to carry out attacks against Afghan and coalition forces. He also played a critical role in training new fighters to swell the ranks of Taliban forces in Nangarhar. (U.S. Army photo by Pfc. Elliot Banks)
