Report of the Inquiry into the Role and Oversight of Private Security Contractors in Afghanistan

The 'Report of the Inquiry into the Role and Oversight of Private Security Contractors in Afghanistan' was published by the United States Senate Committee on Armed Services in September 2010. It investigates the events surrounding the August 2008 bombing of the Afghan village of Azizabad, which resulted in a controversial debate over civilian casualties. The report highlights allegations of misinformation provided to US forces by private security contractors, specifically ArmorGroup, and examines the implications of their actions on military operations and civilian safety in Afghanistan.
