Pentagon denies its bombs hit village
Local security sources say this man was injured in a U.S. bombing raid. (CNN) - The U.S. military officially denied reports Saturday that bombs from overnight U.S. airstrikes killed dozens of civilians in two villages in eastern Afghanistan. The regional security chief for the Nangarhar province had said 50 civilians were killed and at least five others were wounded when bombs landed in Talkhel and Balut, near Tora Bora, which is believed to be an al Qaeda base. But Maj. Brad Lowell, a spokesman for the U.S. Central Command, said the planes were attacking a cave and tunnel complex. "We've reviewed all means available," Lowell said. "We had good imagery on these. We saw the weapons hit their targets, which were cave and tunnel systems. There were no buildings in view to depict or suggest residential areas." Lowell would not say specifically what means were used. In the past, the Pentagon has used nose cone video and video from guided weapons for analysis. He said U.S. warplanes conducted bombing runs early Friday morning.

KABUL, Afghanistan Afghanistan is banking on the introduction of a new currency to help stabilize its moribund economy and attract desperately-needed foreign investment. On Monday, it was a case of out with the old afghani, which has been trading at around 46,000 to the U.S. dollar, and in with the new. Also called the afghani, the new notes are worth 1,000 of the old notes, which will be phased out over the next few weeks. The launch of the new currency coincided with the anniversary of the October 7, 2001 start of the US-led bombing campaign that brought about the fall of the Taliban regime.

Lull in fighting in eastern Afghanistan
A hospital in Gardez reported 16 dead bodies from the fighting GARDEZ, Afghanistan (CNN) A tense calm has settled over this eastern Afghan city of Gardez as two rival Pashtun forces took a break from fighting. The shura, a council representing all of the clans and tribes of Paktia province, remained in control of the city on Friday. The guns have been silent since 3 p.m. Thursday (1030 GMT) following two days of fighting between shura forces and a rival Pashtun force headed by Bacha Kahn, who has been appointed acting governor of Paktia province by the Afghanistan interim administration. Khan's forces had retreated to the east Thursday. Early Friday afternoon, very few people could be seen around Gardez and the city remained tense, but functional.

Boy Scouts take lead in Afghan rebuild effort
5,000 spotty Herberts to assist Paras by Richard Mansell Head of the British Boy Scouts, Sir Nevil Spotbinder, announced today that Britain would be sending up to 5,000 scouts to Afghanistan. Speaking at the organisation's headquarters in Chingford and accompanied by Foreign Secretary Jack Straw, Spotbinder explained that the scouts would assist troops in rebuilding the war-torn country. "My boys' skills at pitching tents, rubbing sticks together, organising group games and singing around campfires would be of invaluable assistance to the British soldiers already in position," he told the assembled journalists. "In addition, the people of Afghanistan could not fail to be moved by such a warm gesture of goodwill, especially when they see their youthful thighs rubbing together in those tight grey shorts." The Scouts will help to organise cricket matches and other wholesome activities, rasing the morale of both the British troops and the Afghan citizens. Sir Nevil said the character-building expedition, which will only include Scouts over the age of 10, would also benefit the youths by teaching them to help others, see and understand a foreign culture and learn how to crap in holes.

U.S.-Russia Working Group: No Taliban in Afghanistan's future
MOSCOW (CNN) A key working group of Russian and American diplomats says the Taliban "as a movement should have no place in future bodies of state power" in Afghanistan. The U.S.-Russia Working Group on Afghanistan, co-chaired by Richard L. Armitage, U.S. deputy secretary of state, and V.I. Tribunikov, first deputy foreign minister of the Russian Federation, made the statement in a news release Thursday. The United States and Russia agree there should be a "broad-based, multi-ethnic government" in Afghanistan, the release said. Both sides want an Afghanistan "free of terrorism, living in harmony with its neighbors and the international community at large and respecting international standards of behavior and human rights, including those of women and girls." At the same time, they agreed that "determining the country's future is an exclusive prerogative of the Afghan people." The group said the two nations will take further steps to improve "bilateral and multilateral cooperation on the Afghan antiterrorist and peacemaking fronts."

Aid workers attacked in Afghanistan
A parachutist lands outside the Olympic stadium during the Independence Day celebration in Kabul. Story Tools KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) Tightly guarded independence day celebrations in Afghanistan were marred by new attacks on aid workers and security forces as well as an explosion that ripped through the home of President Hamid Karzai's brother. No one was hurt in the blast in the southern city of Khandahar, which Karzai's brother Ahmed Wali insisted was an accident that happened as a servant moved some munitions and explosives confiscated in an earlier security raid. "It was a bad incident. But it was not a terrorist attack," Ahmed Wali Karzai told The Associated Press. Afghanistan has been hit by a new wave of violence blamed on insurgents, who are believed to be a mix of guerrillas from the ousted Taliban regime, al-Qaida fighters and supporters of renegade warlord Gulbuddin Hekmatyar. On Tuesday, attackers unsuccessfully fired three rockets at a coalition base in Asadabad, capital of eastern Kunar province, the U.S. military said.

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) U.S. troops and helicopters killed as many as 14 enemy fighters in clashes in the mountains of eastern Afghanistan, the military said Thursday. Three U.S. soldiers were wounded in the battle Wednesday some 12 miles northeast of Shkin, a town in Paktika province near the Pakistan border. The first three enemy fighters were killed in a gunbattle after a small group of insurgents fired on a U.S. patrol, spokesman Lt. Col. Bryan Hilferty said. One of the wounded American soldiers was evacuated and is in a stable condition. "He wasn't terribly badly hurt," Hilferty said. The other two immediately returned to duty. The same patrol later caught up with the insurgents, and AH-1 Cobra attack helicopters flying in support inflicted several more casualties, Hilferty said. "We don't know for sure, but we think 11," he said. "It was getting night and we didn't go to see the bodies."
