KABUL, Afghanistan (June 11, 2011) – A combined Afghan and coalition security force killed Sayed Rahman, a Haqqani network facilitator during a security operation in Sabari district, Khost province, yesterday.

Rahman assisted roadside bomb and indirect fire attacks against Afghan and coalition forces. He had moved multiple weapons for insurgents in the district, including anti-aircraft machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades. Additionally, he was involved in attack planning targeting an Afghan security checkpoint.

Following extensive intelligence reports, the Afghan-led force tracked Rahman to his compound. The force noticed Rahman, armed with an AK-47 rifle, attempting to escape capture. The security force located him and an engagement ensued, resulting in his death.

Completing the search, the force detained two suspected insurgents and confiscated an additional AK-47. Throughout the night search the security force protected the women and children.
