Blackanthem Military News, BAGRAM AIRFIELD, Afghanistan – Coalition forces killed five armed militants in an early-morning raid on a compound in the Qalat district of Zabul province April 27. Five others were subdued and taken into custody.
Credible information led the Coalition to the compound suspected of sheltering local Taliban leadership connected to Mullah Dadullah Lang. These militants are suspected of weapons smuggling and planning attacks on Coalition forces and peaceful Afghans in the area.
During the operation, armed militants attempted to engage the Coalition forces with automatic weapons and were quickly killed. The compound was thoroughly searched and forces discovered numerous AK-47’s and rocket propelled grenades in the compound and in adjacent caves.
The weapons were destroyed in place.
“We will continue to work relentlessly to eliminate the source of terrorism,” said Army Maj. Christopher Belcher, Coalition spokesman. “The Taliban are on the run.”
