"Patienter brændte i deres senge, medlemmer af lægestaben blev halshugget og mistede lemmer, og andre blev skudt af den omkredsende AC-130 kamphelikopter mens de flygtede den brændende bygning," sagde rapporten.
Den 3. october, bombede amerikanske styrker et MSF hospital i Kunduz, dræbende 30 medlemmer af lægestaben og patienter, heriblandt tre børn, i hvad der kunne være den mest dødelige hændelse af civile omkomne siden den afghanske konflikt startede i 2001.
MSF, ifølge rapporten, afsluttede en indledende gennemgang af bombningen omfattende en synsvinkel fra indenfor Kunduz hospitalet, men rapporten mangler "en synsvinkel fra udenfor hospitalet - hvad der foregik inden for det amerikanske kommandohieraki."

The hospital was fully functional with 105 patients admitted with surgeries ongoing at the time of the US airstrikes, the report added, and was not a "Taliban base."
The question remains, according to the report, as to why the MSF hospital lost its protected status in the eyes of US military forces during the attack.
MSF demanded, the report noted, that functioning hospitals treating causalities of war never lose this protection for any reason.
"Wounded combatants are patients and must be free from attack and treated without discrimination," the report pointed out. "Medical staff should never be punished or attacked for providing treatment to wounded combatants."
On October 6, General John Campbell, the most senior US commander in Afghanistan, admitted that the Kunduz hospital had been "mistakenly struck" by US forces.
The United States, NATO and the Afghan government have all launched investigations into the MSF hospital bombing.
Kommentar: How psychopathic does the US military have to be to not just knowingly bomb a hospital (the claim it was "mistakenly" hit is BS) but also to shoot at people trying to flee the destruction? All their claims about not killing innocent civilians, not invading nations, not torturing, it's all hot air! Unfortunately they are going to have a hard time blaming this catastrophe on Putin.
