US airstrikes kill five Afghan civilians in eastern province
[Iran Press TV] The United States has carried out overnight Arclight airstrikes in Afghanistan, killing five civilians in the eastern province of Wardak, Press TV reports.

The US military officials in Kabul said on Friday that they targeted eight beturbanned goons on Thursday night as they were planting roadside kabooms to attack US military convoys in Wardak's Sayedabad district.

Local Afghan villagers, however, rejected the statement, blaming the US forces for killing harmless civilians with no links to any krazed killer groups.
"Sure, from up there it looks like mayhem with malice aforethought, but down here on the ground we could see they were actually playing with fluffy bunnies."
Local authorities have reportedly launched an investigation into the identity of those killed in the two US attacks.
