JALALABAD: Most of the Tora Bora mountain complex in eastern Afghanistan where Osama bin Laden’s Al Qaeda fighters have been holed up has been captured by Afghan militia forces, military commander Hazrat Ali said on Monday.

“We control all of the Melawa and Tora Bora area, except for one place,” Ali said through an interpreter.

“We have captured all of the Al Qaeda places with heavy weapons.”—AFP
