An American soldier has killed or wounded at least a dozen civilians in southern Afghanistan after having a breakdown, according to reports.
He’s said to have left his base in Kandahar province and opened fire. The NATO-led coalition says he’s been arrested, describing the event as ‘deeply regrettable’.
The precise number of victims is difficult to verify at this stage. It comes at a time when anti-American sentiment is already running high.
