파키스탄 경찰의 실수로 소녀가 숨지다

A young girl died in Pakistan last week. She was nine years old. Police said they shot her by mistake.

The girl was taken by robbers. She was held as a hostage. Police tried to catch the robbers. They chased them in the streets.

During the chase, police fired their guns. They thought they were shooting at robbers. But they hit the girl instead. The mistake happened very quickly. Now the girl is dead.

Australia is very upset about this. The girl had family in Australia. Australian leaders want answers. They want to know exactly what happened. They asked Pakistan to explain the mistake.

Pakistan's police said sorry. They called it an accident. They said they did not see the girl. The robbers were moving fast. Everything happened very quickly in a confusing situation.

This accident is very sad. A young life was lost. Families are upset. Countries are talking about it now. People want to know how to stop this. Police need better training. People need better safety rules.
