An Afghan military official says a NATO airstrike has killed four Afghan soldiers in the country's south, mistaking them for militants.
A spokesman for the Defense Ministry says the Afghan soldiers had left their base in Helmand province on Wednesday night for a patrol when they came under fire from NATO planes. Gen. Mohammad Zahir Azimi says NATO told the Afghan government that the coalition thought the men were militants. (AP)
