| - The 2010 Sangin airstrike refers to a NATO attack which killed and injured many Afghan civilians, Most of whom were women and children, in the village of Sangin in Helmand province, Afghanistan on July 23, 2010. The Afghan government claims that a helicopter-gunship rocket strike killed 52 civilians. Many other civilians including children were also injured and treated at Kandahar hospital. For weeks, US military and North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) officials denied that there had been any such incident. About 200-400 people took to the streets in Kabul protesting the killing of civilians by foreign troops, carrying photos of those who died in the airstrike. The Karzai government sent investigators to the scene of the incident, who concluded that 39 civilians were killed in the rocket strike, lower than the initially reported 45–52. According to their investigation all 39 dead are women or children. (en)
