B-52 bombers have carpet-bombed the Taliban's front lines in Afghanistan. The planes targeted the area near Bagram airport and hillsides in the Tutakhan hills. Rear Admiral John Stufflebeem confirmed to reporters at the Pentagon the bombing has taken place. But he said the term carpet-bombing is "inaccurate". He said: "Heavy bombers have the capability to carry large loads of weapons. Often when a target presents itself in the engagement zone it is possible to release all its load at once." The air strikes also resulted in explosions in Kandahar. ananova.com
