Afghan president criticizes U S strike over killed child
The U S led coalition apologized for a strike that killed a two year old in Helmand province and wounded two women. President Karzai warned the incident could derail a long term security pact with the United States. The coalition said the target was a midlevel Taliban commander and that civilians were not intended. Marine Gen. Dunford called Karzai to express regret and to pledge an investigation. Karzai condemned the strike as oppression and said he would not sign the security agreement if such acts continue.
