Afghanistan

The Taliban killed four Afghan soldiers in an IED attack. Afghan and Coalition forces detained a Taliban facilitator and an undisclosed number of fighters in Kandahar and Logar. The government banned ammonium nitrate, a fertilizer used in IEDs. ISAF will further tighten the rules of engagement on night raids.
