In the days after the massacre, protests erupted against the US occupation. In Jalalabad, capital of Nangarhar province, bordering Kunar, 200 university students marched in the streets, demanding those responsible for the massacre be brought to justice.
In Kabul, protesters gathered to chant, “Obama! Obama! Take your soldiers out of Afghanistan!”, wearing blue headbands with the words: “Stop killing us!” Others held placards with pictures of children killed by US troops.
