A UN committee has said it's alarmed over reports that hundreds of children have been killed by US military forces in Afghanistan in the past five years.
The Geneva-based Committee on the Rights of the Child said the deaths were down to lack of safety measures and the "indiscriminate use of force" by US soldiers.
The report also expresses concern that troops responsible for the killing of children have not always been held accountable.

A UN report in April last year said 110 children were killed and 68 wounded in airstrikes conducted by US-led NATO and Afghan National Security Forces in 2011.
