They were all Afghan criminals who were living in Pakistan.

We had earlier intelligence information on the two. They were attempting to attack a government target.

Joint operation of Afghan army, police and US-led coalition troops is going on in the area.

We have sent a team to investigate the matter.

We are searching for them, either to find them alive or their bodies.

The U.S. soldiers were on a hunt for Taliban on the basis of a tip-off when the shot was fired in the sky and the soldiers thought it was the enemy who fired it.

These Taliban are coming from Pakistan. They get training for suicide attacks in Pakistan and then come to Afghanistan. We ask the Pakistani government to secure its border.

In three cleanup operations yesterday and today, nine suspected terrorists were arrested, and two Pakistan is were among them.

We have found explosives, vehicles for car bombs, remote-control bombs, and so on.
