  • The Granai airstrike, sometimes called the Granai massacre, refers to the killing of approximately 86 to 147 Afghan civilians by an airstrike by a US Air Force B-1 Bomber on May 4, 2009, in the village of Granai (Pashto: گرانای, also Romanized Garani, Gerani, Granay) in Farah Province, south of Herat, Afghanistan. The United States admitted significant errors were made in carrying out the airstrike, stating "the inability to discern the presence of civilians and avoid and/or minimize accompanying collateral damage resulted in the unintended consequence of civilian casualties". The Afghan government has said that around 140 civilians were killed, of whom 22 were adult males and 93 were children. Afghanistan's top rights body has said 97 civilians were killed, most of them children. Other estimates range from 86 to 147 civilians killed. An earlier probe by the US military had said that 20–30 civilians were killed along with 60–65 insurgents. A partially released American inquiry stated "no one will ever be able conclusively to determine the number of civilian casualties that occurred". The Australian has said that the airstrike resulted in "one of the highest civilian death tolls from Western military action since foreign forces invaded Afghanistan in 2001". (en)
  • Le bombardement de Granai est un massacre effectué par les forces armées des États-Unis, le lundi 4 mai 2009, dans le village de Granai, appartenant au district de Bala Buluk, dans la province de Farâh, en Afghanistan. Des insurgés talibans étaient la cible de cette opération. Plus de 100 personnes, insurgés ou civils incluant femmes et enfants auraient été tués dans cette attaque, ce qui en ferait le bombardement le plus meurtrier pour les civils depuis le début de l'intervention internationale en 2001 et depuis le bombardement d'Azizabad. Le gouvernement d'Hamid Karzai affirme que jusqu'à 130 civils ont pu être tués lors des bombardements des lundi 4 et mardi 5 mai 2009 ; le Pentagone affirme que ce bilan est exagéré. (fr)

  • 格拉奈大屠殺,或稱格拉奈空襲事件,是指於2009年5月4日在阿富汗法拉省格拉奈村造成約86至147名平民死亡的空襲事件。美國政府承認此次行動存在嚴重的缺失,並聲明其“無法辨識平民的存在且/或無能減少附帶的損害而造成了非預期的後果”。阿富汗政府宣稱此事件造成140名平民的死亡,其中93人為兒童,而僅有22位成年受害者。一份較早的美軍調查資料聲稱有約20到30名平民與60到65名的暴徒在此行動中喪生,另一份被部分釋出的調查報告內文中則聲稱“沒有人可能確實的斷定平民的死亡人數”,而澳洲人報則在報導中聲稱此次的傷亡是聯軍入侵阿富汗之後所造成的最大單一死亡事件。 (zh)
