Baby killed in Afghanistan attack

Nato has said a baby was killed during a night raid targeting militants in central Afghanistan.

The organisation said a gunbattle broke out on Saturday night after a joint international-Afghan force came under fire from several locations as it approached a compound in Uruzgan province.

It said four suspected insurgents were also killed.

Sunday's statement said "one woman with minor wounds and a baby who suffered fatal injuries were found" after the fighting ended.

2. It's been a busy few weeks of civilian killing, hasn't it?
The seven students from a couple of weeks ago killed by US special forces.

The imam in Kabul gunned down in his car by a passing NATO convoy.

The four Afghan soldiers killed by NATO airstrikes.

And now a dead baby.

Although the Taliban kill more civilians, every one of these incidents gets highly publicized there and inflame anti-Western sentiment.
