A coalition security force member provides security during an operation in Pul-e 'Alam district, Logar province, March 30, 2013. The operation resulted in the detainment of a senior Taliban leader and several other insurgents. Taliban leader is accused of a wide range of insurgent operations in Logar, including recruiting extremist fighters, managing the militant's logistical network for the province, and planning and coordinating attacks against Afghan and coalition forces. In late February, the commander and fellow ranking insurgency members allegedly plotted to assassinate President Karzai and U.S. Ambassador to Afghanistan James Cunningham. The security force also seized one AK-47 and two AK-47 magazines. (U.S. Army photo by Spc. Coty Kuhn)
