“ US.
Must find people who do this.
“Ahmadi said this family also looked for financial compensation for their losses and demanded that some family members be moved to third countries, without determining which country.
AP and other news organizations in Kabul reported after the strike that the targeted vehicle driver, Zemerai Ahmadi, was an old employee in an American humanitarian organization and quoted the absence of evidence to support the Pentagon’s statement that the vehicle contained explosives.

“In the days of Pentagon’s apologies, a family account, documents from colleagues who were seen by AP and scenes at the family home _ where the Zemera car was shocked by missile _ all sharply contrary to the US military.
Instead, they painted a family picture who have worked for Americans and tried to get a visa to the US, afraid of their lives under the Taliban.

“ Now I am then someone responsible For all my family and I am unemployed, ” said Emal Ahmadi.

“ They can see that there are innocent children near the car and in the car.
Whoever does this must be punished.
