Killings of US advisers in Kabul 'unacceptable': Pentagon
WASHINGTON: The Pentagon on Saturday decried as "unacceptable" the killing of two US military advisers in Kabul and called on Afghan authorities to better protect coalition forces and curtail raging violence.

"This act is unacceptable, and the United States condemns it in the strongest possible terms," said Defense Secretary Leon Panetta's spokesman George Little, adding that Afghan Defense Minister Abdul Rahim Wardak had telephoned Panetta to apologize for the killings. (AFP)
