A Swedish medical charity has accused US troops of raiding an Afghan hospital while searching for wounded Taliban fighters. Troops tied up four hospital employees and two family members of patients. US troops also forced patients out of their hospital beds and broke into locked rooms including the ultrasound ward. Anders Fange of the Swedish Committee for Afghanistan called the episode a “clear violation of globally recognized humanitarian principles about the sanctity of health facilities and staff in areas of conflict.” Wednesday’s raid occurred a week after US forces attacked a medical clinic where an injured Taliban leader had reportedly sought treatment.
