KABUL/WASHINGTON (Pajhwok): Some US troops, who were closely involved in last month's deadly airstrike on a Doctors Without Borders hospital in northern Afghanistan have been suspended, America’s top commander announced on Wednesday.
The airstrike killed 30 people, including staff and patients, in October after Taliban militants captured Kunduz City, the provincial capital. It was the first urban centre the rebels seized for three days since their regime was toppled in 2001.
Army Gen. John Campbell told reporters in Kabul that the airstrike was a tragic mistake “caused primarily by human error.” Sharing . . .
