KABUL — NATO forces captured two key insurgent leaders in Afghanistan, and a service member was killed in a deadly bombing that raised to three the number of coalition troops killed since the new year began, the multinational alliance said Sunday.

The coalition said a senior Taliban leader directly involved in a Dec. 18 suicide car bombing in Kandahar was captured Saturday. In Khost province along the Pakistan border in the east, NATO said it had arrested an insurgent leader in the feared Haqqani network — al-Qaeda-linked militants who operate out of Pakistan.
