several civilians and wounding others, including an infant. U.S. forces
suffered their sixth fatality in a week amid rising violence.
Zabul Gov. Ali Khail said U.S.-led coalition forces made "a mistake"
during operations against militants in the southern province and that
civilians had died. He gave no details.
The U.S. military denied civilians were at the scene of the fighting in
Day Chopan district Monday and the district's police chief said Taliban
insurgents had been hiding in the area. American officials said earlier
that 18 suspected Taliban guerrillas and one U.S. service member had been
killed in the clash.
Fatality表示“災(zāi)禍；（意外）死亡；宿命”，例如：The explosion accident caused several
fatalities.（爆炸事故使數(shù)人死亡。）highway fatalities（高速公路死亡事故）；The driver was one of
the fatalities.（司機(jī)是意外死亡者之一。）
