KABUL, Nov. 25 (AP) - (Kyodo)—More than 60 suspected militants were killed in a joint Afghan-coalition air and ground operation in southeastern Afghanistan near the Pakistani border, a provincial police chief said Sunday.
The forces attacked a weapon convoy of Taliban militants as it crossed the Pakistani border in an area between the Patan and Chamkani districts of Paktia Province on Friday night, Esmatullah Alizai, Paktia’s provincial police chief, said.
The forces supported by U.S.-led coalition helicopters battled the militants for more than 10 hours, which left 65 militants dead, he said adding that two vehicles loaded with weapons and ammunition were destroyed.
