For Immediate Release

KABUL, Afghanistan (Sept. 19)
Afghan and coalition forces today confirmed the death of Hemat, one of the Haqqani leaders behind the Aug. 7 attack on a coalition base in Logar province, following a security operation in Pul-e ‘Alam district, Logar, Monday. As the security force approached Hemat’s location, he maneuvered from the compound and opened fire on the Afghan and coalition troops. The security force returned fire, killing him. Hemat was suspected of having supplied suicide bombers with essential equipment for the Aug. 7 attack, which wounded several Afghan civilians but failed to cause any significant damage to the coalition base. 

Prior to his death, Hemat was believed to have been acquiring and stockpiling several improvised explosive devices (IEDs) for future attacks. The security force also seized multiple firearms and safely destroyed several kilograms of explosives as a result of this operation. No civilians were harmed in the exchange.
