2015 bombing of Médecins Sans Frontières hospital, airstrike in Afghanistan
The Kunduz hospital airstrike was a tragic event where a facility run by Médecins Sans Frontières was bombed.
On October 3, 2015, United States aircraft attacked the Kunduz Trauma Centre operated by Médecins Sans Frontières.
The bombardment led to global outcry and debates over the rules of engagement in conflict zones.
In response to the attack, calls were made for greater protection for medical facilities in war-torn regions.
The incident in Kunduz is one of the few times a Nobel Peace Prize-winning organization has been directly targeted during a conflict.
