Afghanistan

Two ISAF soldiers were killed in the south. Security forces detained a Taliban commander and an undisclosed number of fighters in Helmand, Kandahar, and Khost. The Taliban ordered cell phone companies in Kunduz to shut down at night. The government will offer Taliban leaders exile as part of a peace agreement.
