The pictures and accounts coming out of last night’s bombing of an MSF (Médecins Sans Frontières) hospital in Afghanistan are both tragic and disturbing.   Details on how this happened, or who was responsible, are still emerging. 

 

CNN reports that the Pentagon is investigating whether a AC-130 gunship operating in the area may have been involved, but the facts of the matter are far from clear.

 

For now, all we really know is the MSF – which has suffered terrible losses and hardships battling Ebola in West Africa over the past 18 months – has endured yet another tragedy.
