Afghanistan government officials say at least 21 civilians have been killed by a Nato air attack on a convoy of vehicles in Uruzgan, a province in the country's south.
Nato confirmed that it fired on Sunday on a group of vehicles that it believed contained fighters, only to discover later that women and children were in the cars.
Isaf, Nato's force in Afghanistan, did not provide a figure of how many died.
Amanullah Hothaki, the head of the provincial council for Uruzgan, said 21 people were killed in the attack, which hit three minibuses as they drove down a main road.
Zemeri Bashary, the Afghan interior ministry spokesman, said he had reports of 27 people killed.
He said there were 42 people in the vehicles, all of them civilians.
