The US envoy to Pakistan has apologised for a recent Nato helicopter attack that killed at least two Pakistani soldiers near the Afghan border.
Anne Patterson said the US extended its “deepest apology to Pakistan and the families of the Frontier Scouts who were killed and injured”.
A Nato inquiry found that the aircraft flew from Afghanistan into Pakistan.
Nato helicopters then opened fire on the border guards mistakenly believing they were militants.
