200 Afghanis, Many Civilians, Massacred By NATO Occupation Forces Air Strikes |  Printable version | Sep 3, 2006, 12:21 PM
KANDAHAR, Afghanistan --
NATO occupation forces and US-led Afghan forces killed more than 200 Afghanis with air strikes and artillery fire in a major offensive in a volatile province in southern Afghanistan, the alliance said Sunday.
The casualty counts could not be independently confirmed because the government ordered vehicles to stay off roads leading to the area and reporters were unable to gain access to the battle zone. There was no indication of bodies being taken to local hospitals.
NATO occupation forces claimed there were no reports of civilian casualties, despite the heavy weight of fire being used. An Afghan Defense Ministry spokesman, Gen. Zahir Azimi, said earlier in the day that a number of civilians were killed. | | Posted By: admin - news@wilayahnetwork.com | | Back |
