Air Strike Kills Civilians in Afghanistan
Western air strikes sparked fresh controversy in Afghanistan on Wednesday as NATO said a bombing killed eight civilians and the US military estimated that up to 30 villagers died in an attack this month.
According to Truthout, “the announcements came after Afghan President Hamid Karzai demanded an end to air strikes by foreign forces helping his government fight a Taliban insurgency, because of the growing and increasingly controversial civilian death toll.”
