Photographs from the women's section of the hospital in Kandahar today. Click the image above to scroll through the pictures. I am writing for the
Globe and Mail newspaper in Canada for this story.
In interviews at Mirwais Hospital in Kandahar city, where at least 16 male victims and dozens of female victims were being treated Tuesday night, several villagers described the attack. While Mr. Khan corroborated much of the information witnesses gave during a separate interview, it was not possible to independently verify their account or the numbers of dead and injured they gave.
Witnesses gave conflicting statements about the identity of troops who arrived at the scene after the air attacks, with some saying they saw Canadian soldiers while others said they saw U.S. troops. It was not immediately clear which international forces were responsible for the air strikes. link
Note: I (Frontline blogger) am stepping in for Alex here as he can't upload photos easily for now. Alex will update as and when he has the time.
What do you think?
