KABUL, Afghanistan – Afghan National Security Forces together with Coalition forces killed two militants and destroyed three improvised explosive devices during operations Thursday and Friday in Nahr Surkh District, Helmand province.
The combined forces were on a patrol when they identified two militants attempting to detonate an IED along the road. As combined forces drew closer, the two militants attacked the patrol with small-arms fire. ANSF and Coalition forces responded with small-arms fire, killing the two militants.
A security sweep of the area near the engagement led to the discovery of three command-detonated IEDs, all of which were safely detonated on site.
No ANSF, Coalition forces or civilian casualties have been reported.
