 US and allies troops searched 30 of the Taliban held 160 caves they found in Spinboldack. Some 107mm rockets, rifles and ammunition has been found so far. A few enemy fighters continued to snipe at Afghan and American troops, but without much effect. The hostile Afghans have not yet found a way to deal with the US combat methods. By dispersing immediately on contact, the enemy can minimize their casualties from smart bombs, but this is a basically defensive maneuver.

The Afghan government says one of their soldiers was killed, US Army spokesmen say there were no friendly casualties.
