| Northern Alliance fighters have killed as many as 600 people since they seized Mazar-e Sharif on Friday. Western officials say that the majority of those killed are Pakistani and Kashmiri fighters as well as family members of Chechen fighters who have sided with the Taliban forces. Western officials say about 100 men are in custody. U.S. warplanes are continuing to bomb caves and tunnels where Taliban and al Queda leaders and soldiers might be seeking refuge, as they retreat from Afghanistan's major northern cities. |
