At approximately 21:00 on Monday, 16 March, an airstrike struck the Omid Addiction Treatment Hospital in Afghanistan' s capital Kabul, a two-storey facility with 2,000 beds serving some of the country’s most vulnerable patients. The attack destroyed large sections of the hospital, killing more than 400 people and injuring up to 250 others. The Taliban authorities have accused Pakistan of carrying out the airstrike, amid rapidly worsening tensions that risk spiralling into wider conflict. The Pakistani government has denied responsibility. This incident may be among the deadliest since hostilities intensified last year, when relations between Pakistan and Taliban authorities sharply deteriorated. In October 2015, the MSF hospital in Kunduz was bombed by US forces killing 42 people providing the impetus for the UN Security Council to pass resolution 2286 in May 2016. Since 2016, Insecurity Insight has documented 795 incidents of violence or obstruction of health care in Afghanistan. 38 (or around 5 % of all reported incidents) involved the use of explosive weapons that damaged or destroyed health facilities, killing a total of 12 health workers and injuring 42 others.
