Protest in Afghan east after civilian deaths

KABUL (Reuters) - Hundreds of Afghans, some shouting "Death to America", protested in the east on Sunday after six people were killed during a raid by U.S.-led coalition forces.

Nangahar police spokesman Abdul Ghafur said the six dead were all civilians, including three women, but the U.S. military said four of those killed were Taliban fighters and a woman and a teenage girl died in crossfire.

The military said the early Sunday morning raid had targeted a car bomb cell when its soldiers came under fire.

"We are saddened at the loss of civilian life," said Major Chris Belcher said in the statement. "It is extremely unfortunate that militants put others' lives in danger by hiding among their families."
