Military analysts discuss the technical aspects of the AC-130 gunship used in the Kunduz hospital attack, questioning the official count of 211 rounds fired over 30 minutes. Reports suggest the ground commander may have exceeded his authority by calling in the strike to support Afghan forces, which would violate the restricted US combat mission parameters established in 2014.
