ELI5: How did the US "accidentally" bomb a Doctors Without Borders hospital in Afghanistan? I know that mistakes can be made, but that seems like a pretty big mistake to me.

Well. The story has changed a bit.. the afghans called in a fire support mission on the hospital, because they said they were taking fire from it. So we bombed it for them. ( the fire support missions are supplied by the us,  but the targets are supplied by the Afghan military ) this is probably also why, the afghans weren't rioting in the streets to kill America like every other time we bomb something in their country. They were awful quiet after this which suprised analysts and news media.

Edit: BY the way, the afghans didn't identify the target as a hospital when they called for us to hit it. Were they taking fire and did they know it was a hospital when they called it in? No one seems to know.
