More than 25 international and Afghan troops were wounded Friday in western Afghanistan — possibly by friendly fire — during a search operation for two U.S. Army paratroopers who had gone missing, according to the military.

The NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Afghanistan initially said that the troops conducting the search had been injured by insurgents. But a spokesman later said that officials were investigating the incident and had not ruled out the possibility of friendly fire.
