Doctors without Borders: At least 14 killed in airstrike on Syria hospital

International aid organization Doctors Without Borders said at least 14 patients and staff were killed by an airstrike on a hospital it supports in Syria on Thursday.

It said the facility in Aleppo was hit by a direct strike and among the dead are at least three doctors, including a pediatrician.

It said the death toll is expected to rise. It wasn’t immediately clear who was responsible for the strike.

"We condemn the destruction of the Al Quds hospital in #Aleppo, depriving people of essential healthcare. Hospitals are #notatarget, #Syria," the organization, which also goes by the French moniker MSF (Médecins Sans Frontières), tweeted.

Yes, how about giving free care to the poor Indians, or folks in Apliacha, to hell with foreigners. Charity begins at home!

We are NEVER going to change the mindset of those people.
We are wasting time and lives in trying to do so.
Let's see... Which candidate for President says he will demand America First? Oh yeah... Trump.
