Afghan Red Crescent Slams NATO Raid -- News from Antiwar.com

Afghan Red Crescent Slams NATO Raid -- News from Antiwar.com: "NATO reportedly used explosive charges to break into the offices, and captured two of the group’s aid workers. The two were never charged and were released within 24 hours, according to the manager of the group’s media division.

The raid was reported by NATO on Saturday, but under very different circumstances. At the time NATO claimed it had killed a “militant” and arrested others. NATO hasn’t commented since Saturday."
