One of the most senior al-Qaeda figures in Afghanistan was killed in a weekend air strike, Nato-led forces say.
In a statement, Nato described Saudi-born Sakhar al-Taifi as the group's second-most senior figure in Afghanistan.
He was responsible for commanding foreign insurgents and attacks against coalition and Afghan forces.
But Taliban sources in Kunar deny that he was killed and claim he left the area three months ago.
