Four killed as anti-US protests spread
Four people were shot dead in clashes with police as anti-US protests spread to more Afghan cities today, officials and witnesses said.
The deaths brought to 11 the number of people killed in the biggest outpouring of anti-American sentiment since the fall of the Taliban in 2001. The protests were sparked by allegations that interrogators at the US prison in Guantanamo Bay desecrated Islam’s holy book, the Koran.
