SPIN BOLDAK - Afghan forces seized 300 rocket-propelled grenades and dozens of anti-tank mines Sunday in a raid on a Taliban hideout near the Pakistan border. The weapons had been brought to the suspected rebel training camp, six miles from the southern border town of Spin Boldak, for attacks on government and U.S.-led forces. Taliban fighters guarding the camp escaped the government swoop. The haul included 300 rocket-propelled grenades, dozens of anti-tank mines, 20 AK-47 rifles and various types of ammunition and explosives. It was seized from a Taliban group led by a commander called Hafiz Abdul Rahim, a local commander said.
