Afghanistan

An Afghan inquiry into a US airstrike in Nangarhar province last week found that 47 civilians were killed and nine wounded in the attack; the US has not completed its investigation. Two US soldiers were killed and one was wounded in an IED attack in Paktika province. “Several key members” were killed in an airstrike on a Taliban leadership meeting in Arghandab in Kandahar province.
