WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Afghanistan's President Hamid Karzai on Friday called on the United States to halt air strikes in his country, following attacks this week that Afghan officials said killed 147 people.
"We demand an end to these operations ... an end to air strikes," Karzai said in Washington in an interview with CNN's "Situation Room".
