KABUL, Afghanistan: Today Coalition forces completed their transition from Nerkh District, Wardak Province to Afghan National Security Forces.
As previously announced, Gen. Joseph F. Dunford, the ISAF commander, and President Karzai agreed on a plan March 20 to transition Nerkh District as part of the larger effort to transition Wardak Province to Afghan security lead.
“As we pledged, our forces have transitioned Nerkh District to Afghan National Security Forces and they have now assumed full responsibility for security in this key district. The rest of Wardak will continue to transition over time as Afghan forces continue to grow in capability and capacity,” Dunford said. “This is another sign of the ANSF’s forward momentum in assuming the lead for security across Afghanistan.”
