12 Afghans were killed by two U.S. rockets in Helmand province on Monday. Some 15,000 US, Afghan and other international forces are in Helmand on the third day of a major offensive to reclaim the town of Marjah from Taliban control. Unfortunately, day three of the Afghanistan offensive brings more civilian deaths, something that has put strains on efforts to win over the Afghan people.
