Guardian: Coalition forces have killed hundreds of Afghan civilians

This story has just appeared on the Guardian's website and will be on tomorrow's front page:
A huge cache of secret US military files today provides a devastating portrait of the failing war in Afghanistan, revealing how coalition forces have killed hundreds of civilians in unreported incidents, Taliban attacks have soared and Nato commanders fear neighbouring Pakistan and Iran are fuelling the insurgency.
There is a video on the Guardian website explaining the online tools the paper has created to help readers understand the files.
