Ex-officer tells inquiry UK military committed war crimes in Afghanistan
A former senior British officer has told a public inquiry that British special forces in Afghanistan appeared to commit war crimes by executing suspects and despite widespread knowledge in the chain of command nothing was done.
Britain's defence ministry (MoD) ordered the inquiry after a BBC documentary reported that soldiers from the elite Special Air Service (SAS) had killed 54 people during the war in Afghanistan more than a decade ago in suspicious circumstances.
