Press TV: US Blast Kills 10 Afghan Civilians!!

A US rocket has struck a residential area in war-torn Afghanistan, claiming the lives of at least 10 Afghan civilians. The fatal blast took place in a village in the northeastern Kunar Province. The attack follows a surprise visit by US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to Kabul, to take part in a meeting aiming at finding a solution to substitute the decade-long US-led war in Afghanistan. Estimates put the number of the war-related deaths in Afghanistan at around 5.6 million. The fatalities have reportedly been caused, besides violence, by hunger, deprivation, and other instances of of adversity generated by the US-led invasion and occupation of the country. Just recently, Afghan President Hamid Karzai demanded that the US-led NATO force provide an explanation for the killing of three members of a family in an operation in the predawn hours of Sunday in the Chaki Wardak district of Wardak Province. Insecurity continues to climb across Afghanistan despite the presence of nearly 150,000 US-led forces in the war-ravaged country.
