An Afghan girl was killed and two wounded when a mortar test-fired by Nato troops fell short of its target and hit a home in Afghanistan, military and police officials said Tuesday.
Police in the eastern province of Kunar first said three children were killed in the incident on Monday but the interior ministry in Kabul later said only one had died. Nato's International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said the two wounded were seven-year-old girls. The dead child was also a young girl.
