@DrsWithoutBorder medical staff provide emergency treatment to patients and wounded colleagues in an improvised area of MSF's trauma centre in Kunduz, Afghanistan, hours after warplanes launched a missile attack on the hospital that killed 42 people, including doctors and patients. The Geneva Conventions call for the protection of medical action in conflict zones, but in the year since the Kunduz assault, military forces have launched an unprecedented number of attacks against hospitals in places like Syria and Yemen.
