Well, looks like developments are happening there.

Taliban fighters have taken control of eight villages in Arghandab district in Afghanistan, and have said they plan to march towards Kandahar city.
About 500 fighters are said to be involved in the ongoing Taliban offensive, which got under way on Monday, Al Jazeera has learnt.
Arghandab district lies 30km north of Kandahar city. Afghan and US-led forces in Afghanistan are said to be preparing to repulse the offensive.

Some speculation about the prison break, you gotta hand it to the Pakistani Special Forces (the alleged "rogue" units) for pulling off this prison break.

One wonders if the Afghani and Americans definitively knew the identity of all those held in the prison, there may have been a HVT there whose identity we did not know, or alternatively, knew, but aren't telling, since it'd be a black eye if aforesaid HVT did escape. But, the US would have probably moved HVT to Bagram if aware of his identity.
