Int'l troops mistakenly kill 2 Afghan police

Kabul, July 25 (Xinhua) -- The NATO-led peacekeeping force ISAF (International Security Assistance Force) mistakenly targeted Afghan police forces in Kandahar province, south of Afghanistan, killing two police officers, police chief in southwestern region Ghulam Ali Wahdat said Saturday.

"The police were on patrol in the north part of Kandahar city Friday night when the incident occurred during which two policemen were killed and three others got wounded," Wahdat told Xinhua.

ISAF forces in Kandahar also described it a mistake, according to the police officer.

Such friendly fires had several times claimed the lives of Afghans including security forces during the past years.
