BAGRAM AIRFIELD, Afghanistan – Afghan and Coalition forces conducted an operation Tuesday to detain Taliban extremists in Nangarhar Province.
The combined Afghan and Coalition force searched compounds in Chaparhar district targeting Taliban facilitators believed to be operating in the area. 
The combined force detained three individuals suspected of having links to Taliban networks during the course of operations.
“Taliban extremist networks face mounting pressure due to the successful operations conducted by Afghan and Coalition forces,” said Army Maj. Chris Belcher, Combined Joint Task Force 82 spokesman. “That pressure will only intensify as Afghan and Coalition forces continue to carry out their mission to make Afghanistan a safe, secure and stable environment for the Afghan people.”
