Up to 12 civilians - 10 children and two women - are reported to have been killed in a Nato air strike in eastern Afghanistan.
A further six women are believed to have been injured in the incident in Shigal district, Kunar province.
Villagers and officials told the BBC that a roof of a house collapsed during an air strike, causing the casualties.
Nato confirmed that "fire support" was used in Shigal but said it did not have any reports of civilian deaths.
In a statement, the International Security Assistant Force (Isaf) said it was "aware of several civilians injured from the engagement" on Saturday and was currently assessing the incident.
It added that the air strike "was called in by coalition forces - not Afghans - and was used to engage insurgent forces in areas away from structures".
