 Did US drone strike in Afghanistan kill the wrong person?

 
NEW YORK, 11 Sept. - (ANA) - The New York Times obtained exclusive security camera footage and witness accounts to show how the US military launched a drone strike that killed 10 people in Kabul on August 29 without knowing whom it was hitting.
 
In one of the last acts of the Afghanistan war, a single US drone strike killed 10 members of the same family in Kabul. The New York Times filled in the gaps of the Pentagon’s version of events by obtaining and analysing exclusive video and combining it with witness accounts and satellite images. Their investigation shows how the military launched a fatal strike with limited intelligence that killed innocent people.   - (ANA) -
