KABUL, Afghanistan (news - web sites) (AP) - The Taliban claimed Friday at least 200 people had been killed two days earlier in an airstrike on a village outside the eastern city of Jalalabad. It was the largest casualty claim to date by Afghanistan's ruling Islamic militia, and could not immediately be independently verified.
As the campaign of U.S.-led airstrikes moved into its sixth day, angry demonstrations broke out in neighboring Pakistan on the first Muslim Sabbath since the start of the air assault. In Kabul, the Afghan capital, the preacher at a central mosque prayed that the United States would suffer the same fate as Afghanistan.
