Afghanistan

An ISAF investigation concluded that it did not kill civilians during airstrikes in Kunar and Nuristan provinces. US and Afghan forces withdrew from the forward outpost in Wanat; a Taliban force then moved in to take control of the town. Twelve Taliban were killed in clashes in Kandahar and Paktika provinces.
