Pentagon Admits Airstrike on Doctors w/o Borders


Initially reports were coming in that the Taliban was firing from the location of a hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan, but Doctors Without Borders has vehemently denied this to be the case.  There is a full investigation underway by the US and Afghan governments to determine how this mistake was made.

Airstrikes hit this large hospital killing 22 people.  The organization says that it gave the US exact GPS coordinates of their location and made repeated pleas that they were under fire from friendly positions.

Doctors Without Borders say that war crimes have been committed with this attack on the facility.
