German tank runs over Afghan children, kills one

SHAFAQNA (Shia News Association) — Police officials said that the incident took place in the city of Kunduz on Tuesday.

The German army did not comment on the accident that shocked local people.

The Afghan civilians have been the main victims of the US-led invasion of Afghanistan since 2001.

The United Nations announced on February 4 that 2011 was the deadliest on record for Afghan civilians. The death toll rose eight percent compared to the year before and was roughly double the figure for 2007.— www.shafaqna.com/english/
