KABUL, Afghanistan -- NATO said yesterday that it killed too many Afghan civilians during fighting last year against resurgent Taliban militants, but that the Western alliance was working to change that in 2007.
The acknowledgment came one day after President Hamid Karzai's latest plea for foreign forces to use maximum caution.
"The single thing that we have done wrong and we are striving extremely hard to improve on is killing innocent civilians," Brigadier Richard E. Nugee, the chief spokesman for NATO's International Security Assistance Force, told a news conference.
