President Karzai lashed out against the US for the investigation into the murder of 16 civilians and said that more than one soldier was involved in the attack. The Taliban killed five policemen and captured many more in Kunar. Twelve Turkish soldiers and two Afghan civilians were killed in a helicopter crash in Kabul.
