Dozens of Taliban leaders in Afghanistan were killed last week after U.S. Marines used rocket artillery to strike them down, according to a top American general.

About 50 Taliban commanders were tracked down to a meeting in Musa Qal’ah before they were struck, Army General John W. Nicholson said at a Pentagon press conference Wednesday, May 30, from his office in Kabul.
