Ten civilians, mostly school children, have been killed during Western military operations in eastern Afghanistan, President Hamid Karzai's office said Monday, citing "initial reports".
"Initial reports indicate that in a series of operations by international forces in Kunar province... 10 civilians, eight of them school students, have been killed," the statement said.
And we have one of the usual suspects:
A senior Western military official told AFP that US special forces have been conducting operations against militants in the border regions of Kunar.
