Scores Dead After U.S. Strike in Afghanistan

The Afghan president is in Washington DC for high level talks, but back in Afghanistan a deadly airstrike has once again killed scores of civilians.

The local governor of a small community in Western Afghanistan claims that more than 100 civilians have been killed in a US led airstrike.

The Red Cross confirmed the attack, saying its representatives have seen dozens of bodies. Al Jazeera has filmed exclusive pictures from Farah Province and Nick Clark reports from Kabul.
