AMANDA KIBEL, CNN CORRESPONDENT: We were taken to an area about 10 kilometers north of Kandahar city by a former Mujahedeen commander. This is an area which hasn't been seen by many westerners, and certainly, by very few Afghans since the Taliban took over in Afghanistan. It was an Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda stronghold, an Afghans were not allowed to enter this particular area. What we saw there were a series of caves. Some of them had been lived in by Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda fighters. Others were used to stockpile weapons. We saw literally thousands of munitions piled up in the caves, and hundreds of weapons which were left there, we were told, by al Qaeda fighters as they fled U.S. bombing in Kandahar. We were shown a house which we were told was built by Osama bin Laden, specifically as a hideout. We were also told that this is the house from which Osama bin Laden left Kandahar when U.S. bombing began here. The commander who took us there was there with his troops, and they were gathering together some of these munitions and weapons. They will take them to a storage facility just outside Kandahar city, where they will be kept until they are handed over to the new Afghan interim government. And then, we understand, they will be given to the new Afghan army. I'm Amanda Kibel, CNN, Kandahar, Afghanistan.
