Afghanistan: US offers to pay relatives of Kabul drone attack victims

The US government has offered financial compensation to the relatives of 10 people mistakenly killed by the American military in a drone strike on the Afghan capital, Kabul, in August.The Pentagon said it was also working to help surviving members of the family relocate to the US.It came amid a frenzied evacuation effort following the Taliban's sudden return to power and only days after a devastating attack close to Kabul's airport by IS-K, a local branch of the Islamic State group.

At one point, a surveillance drone saw men loading what appeared to be explosives into the boot of the car, but these turned out to be containers of water. The explosion set off a secondary blast, which US officials initially said was proof that the car was indeed carrying explosives. However, an investigation found it was most likely caused by a propane tank in the driveway.

He reiterated Secretary of Defence Lloyd Austin's commitment to the families, including "condolence payments".

So US resorting to Sharia? Blood money..

So this is US standard human rights, you see why US are being despited nowadays, double n triple standards.

Ah, the old US adage is still held in high regard I see. Nothing matters but money.

Oh, then its ok, i'm sure this new killing of inocent civlians won't create new so called terrorists. Somewhere along the line, we have to ask, who is the real terrorist?

Afghanistan should reject their hell money and return them with more bombs.

Eh, it’s just the beginning of a lot of payments to many more future victims based on the idiocy of the current leadership. Namely, JoeBiden.
