    David Cameron has said the British aid worker Linda Norgrove may have been accidentally killed by US forces during a rescue mission in Afghanistan.The prime minister said new details had come to light about her death which suggested it may have resulted from a US grenade not at her captors' hands.He said he had spoken to her family about the "deeply distressing" news.Mr Cameron defended the rescue mission, saying it had his full support as Ms Norgrove had been in "grave danger".It had been thought that Ms Norgrove had been killed by her abductors just as US forces reached the compound in which she was being held in Afghanistan.But at the start of a press conference in Downing Street, Mr Cameron said it had since emerged that she may have died as a result of US grenade attack.Mr Cameron said the manner of her death had not been confirmed and everything was now being done to do this.But he said US military commanders had expressed their "deep regrets" about the possibility that she may have died in this way."We must get to the bottom of what happened, first of all so the family gets this information and knows exactly how their wonderful daughter died," he said.
