Darn. Foxnews is covering themselves saying news from that part of the country isn't always accurate and therefore they cannot yet confirm. Fingers crossed.

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan - Two sons of Osama bin Laden (news - web sites) were arrested in southeastern Afghanistan (news - web sites) in a joint operation involving U.S. forces, Pakistan's provincial home minister Sanaullah Zehri said.

"They were arrested from Rabat area in Afghanistan," he told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. He did not identify the sons, but said that seven other Al Qaida men were killed in the operation.

Zehri refused to identify which forces were involved in the operation.

"They were allied forces," he said refusing to identify the nationalities of the forces involved in the operation. Rabat is at the extreme tip of southwestern Afghanistan where the Afghan, Pakistan and Iran borders meet.

Arrested were Saad and Hamza bin Laden, two of what are believed to be 14 to 18 sons of Osama bin Laden, the leader of the al-Qaida terrorist organization. Saad is believed closely tied to the operations of al-Qaida.
