The Pentagon has released footage of an air strike that Pakistan says killed 11 of its troops in the Mohmand frontier region.

The US said the footage proves that US forces were legitimately targeting pro-Taleban militants and its forces had acted in self-defence.

Pakistan's military said earlier that the soldiers had died as a result of an "unprovoked and cowardly act".
