Kunduz Aftermath- Community Without Access

About

At a meeting of Kunduz community elders in the hospital, a representative talks about the importance of the hospital to the people of Kunduz and the difficulty they now face to access healthcare.

Kunduz: 6 months later

On October 3, 2015, Doctors Without Borders' trauma hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan, was destroyed by precise and repeated U.S. airstrikes. The attack killed 42 people, including 14 MSF staff members, 24 patients and four caretakers, and wounded dozens more. The facility was a fully functioning hospital at the time of the attack and was therefore protected under International Humanitarian Law. The attack has had devastating consequences for the victims, their families, MSF teams and the entire community of Kunduz. Six months later, the hospital remains closed until further notice, leaving thousands of people without vital medical services.
