American forces bombed a village in the suburb of Khost, an informed source said. The American troops that were pursuing some unidentified Afghans attacked the village of Abgholi, 15 kilometers southeast of Khost, but faced the protest of the people. The American troops then engaged in a confrontation with the people, the source said, adding, as a result the U.S. forces dispatched one fighter and two helicopters to bomb the village. After the bombing, the village was encircled by the U.S. forces and nobody was allowed to leave the place. Due to the siege of the region, the number of casualties is not clear.
Y'think this mighta had something to do with the ambush on the convoy yesterday? Or was it just another wedding? |
