Civilians Dead in US Bombing: Afghan Officials

A U.S. air strike on a village in Eastern Afghanistan killed three civilians—a woman and two children—the Afghan president’s office revealed Tuesday.

Local officials say a NATO aircraft fired at a family in the Nadir Shah Kot district of Khost Province, killing three and wounding one man, The New York Times reports.

The attack occurred late Monday night and prompted an immediate condemnation from Afghan President Hamid Karzai, who slammed the attack as a “violation of agreements,” Reuters reports.
