In Afghanistan, the U.S. military has admitted its troops burned the bodies of two Taliban fighters last month. After the troops burned the bodies, a U.S. Army psy-ops unit was caught on tape broadcasting news of the burning to local residents. U.S. Major General Jason Kamiya said “Our investigation found there was no intent to desecrate the remains, but only to dispose them for hygienic reasons.” The Army said the soldiers involved will be reprimanded but no charges will be filed.
