Kabul, June 12 (RHC)-- In Afghanistan, U.S. troops have been accused of killing a civilian and his two children outside his home this morning in Nangarhar province. 

A local Afghan official says the U.S. troops opened fire, killing the three civilians, after the soldiers’ car was hit by a roadside bomb. 

Meanwhile, three U.S. soldiers were killed on Saturday, also in Nangarhar province, when an Afghan army commando turned on the U.S. troops.  The U.S. and Afghan army were in the middle of a joint military operation in Achin district when the killings took place. 

Six U.S. soldiers have died in Afghanistan so far this year.
