The US-led foreign forces have killed at least two civilians in troubled southern Afghanistan amid growing public discontent over such attacks.
The civilian couple was killed by foreign troops during a night raid in Zabul Province, a Press TV correspondent reported.
NATO has claimed the man was a militant. But locals say he was a farmer and had no links to the Taliban.
Foreign forces have killed thousands of Afghan civilians since they invaded the country back in 2001.
The civilian casualties have always been a source of friction between Kabul and Washington.
Afghan officials have frequently condemned NATO attacks on ordinary Afghans and called for an end to such attacks.
Afghans blame foreign troops and their military operations for the increasing number of civilian casualties in the country, which has given rise to anti-US sentiments in the troubled country.
According to a UN report, about 2,800 civilians were killed by foreign forces and militants in Afghanistan last year.
Over 150,000 foreign troops are currently stationed in Afghanistan.
