Two senior al-Qaida captured, says Pentagon

US troops have captured two senior al-Qaida fighters and confiscated their computers and mobile phones near a huge underground cave complex used by Osama bin Laden’s terrorist network, the Pentagon said.

The discoveries in eastern Afghanistan came as US forces were wrapping up operations in Tora Bora and focusing on Zawar Kili, the complex used as a training camp and assembly point for possible movement from Afghanistan into Pakistan.
