looking for answers. an air strike kills staff and patients at a hospital in afghanist afghanistan. who is behind it is the question left unanswered. new details emerge about the oregon gunman's death. we have an interview with his father later on this show. and in portugal, it's time to head to the polls. will the country turn left or stick to the right. we'll have a discussion later in the broadcast. morning. i'm linda kincade and this is

cnn newsroom. we'll begin in afghanistan where the u.s. is investigating a deadly air strike. doctors without borders which runs the hospital says the attack lasted for almost an hour even after it alerted u.s. and afghan officials that its trauma center had been hit. 19 people had been killed, including three children. 37 others were wounded and many unaccounted for. the u.s. military officials says an american gun ship was firing on taliban officials in the area at the time it was struck. president obama is offering his deepest condolences to the doctors and these injured. he's not yet accepting blame. he says the department of defense has launched a full investigation and we'll await the results of that inquiry

before making a definitive judgment as to the circumstances of the tragedy. for the latest on this developing story, let's go to angle rasmussen who is there for us. they've koum out with strong words calling the air strikes, tragic, inexcusable possibly criminal. we know the u.s. is investigating. will there be an independent invest and if so, who will carry it out? >> reporter: that seems a little unclear at the moment. both the white house and tsaid that the u.s. is ongoing. we haven't heard anything from the u.s. military for msh than 24 hours. as you mentioned, they were along the lines of the condolences, there was a gun ship in the area and investigating where that caused collateral damage. but we haven't heard anything

more specific about what that investigation entails. as you also mention in your intro, a lot of people who are inpatient to get answers from this investigation, from the u.s. mull tear here. the hospital msf, they gave out their exact gps coordinates less than a week before this incident happened yesterday. both to the u.s. military and to the afghan ministry of defense. afghan officials are saying that taliban officials were firing from inside the compound but doctors at msf say that was not the case. i spoke to doctors who were at the compound at the time of the attack and said there were no insurgents inside. that's part of the investigation as well which the u.s. military is looking into. >> and the taliban is saying they had no one from their group killed or injured. now the doctors without borders group said they gave their gps

coordinates of the hospital on many occasions, as recently as last tuesday. even when the attacks started they again alerted authorities. do you know who they contacted exactly and how they got through to them? >> they said they contacted both officials in washington, american officials in kabul and afghan officials here in kabul and nothing was done for 30 minutes. i don't know which contacts msf would have and i imagine it's quite a bureaucratic process to get through the right people before the people on the ground, the u.s. special forces advisers on the ground in kunduz, focused to them and the people on the planes. i'm not sure what that bureaucratic process is. but that could be one explanation why it took 30 minutes for the attack to end. >> okay. sun nay rasmussen, we thank you for the update. doctors without borders says it

previously told all parties the hospital's exact location. earlier we spoke with christopher stokes, the general director of the aid group about the attack. take a listen. >> it was an absolutely dreadful scene. this is a hospital that's been in kunduz and the conflict really around kunduz started four or five days. it was packed. there was over 100 patients. our staff was in the hospital as well and there was complete chaos. this is really is complete breech of humanitarian law. we sent the coordinates of this hospal to every party of the conflict in kabul, in washington, and even with the afghan opposition. so there is really no -- nobody can claim that they didn't know what this build was. it's a big white visible building in the middle of kunduz. >> once again in the midst of

the panic of the air strike, do you have any sense of how your staff tried to alert u.s. authorities that they were under attack? were they working by phone? did they know who to contact? were they trying to e-mail? how do you go about telling a plane flying above you to stop firing? >> again, nobody can be 100% sure so far. that's why we're calling for an independent investigation of what really happened. it's true that everything does point to a coalition plane having conducted this attack. so we were in contact with the u.s. authorities very quickly, actually during the one-hour period of this attack we had contact with the u.s. authorities to inform them that the msf hospital was under attack. >> now the u.s. military has launched an investigation. you're calling for an investigation. is that the investigation you want? will you have confidence in what u.s. authorities tell you about what happened? >> we need an investigation that's as independent and as transparent as possible.

and we don't only want the findings to be shared, we want to be able to read the full report. we've lost some of our colleagues who have been working with us for a number of years. we've had to close the hospital. there is no access to trauma care now for these -- for the civilians and the wounded in the area of kunduz which is a battleground at the moment. so the results are important for us but also for the ability of humanitarian actors to continue working. >> was there any way that a pilot or a u.s. military figure could have been confused by the presence or the proximity of the taliban? >> so the compound is gated. we have a lot of our staff in that compound. and specifically, especially in this build -- this is the core of the hospital where you have the intensive care unit et cetera. we had nsf staff there. if there was a major military

operation ongoing there, our staff would have noticed. that wasn't the case actually when the strikes occurred. and as i said, the compound was gated. now of course when it comes to the patients there, we don't know if somebody is wounded, they're noncompetent and under humanitarian national law, they should be treated as such and are not will git mate tar ges. we treat everybody, regardless of race or religion. the people who were in the hospital, the people we were treating were wounded. and whoever was in there can't justify an attack on a hospital, which is protected by international humanitarian law, which all of the coalition countries are signatories. >> that was christopher stokes, the general director for msf. coming up next hour, we'll hear from doctor doctors about bor r borders about the attack. this happened against the backdrop of the u.s. coalition

fight against terror for for more on the risks these humanitarians face, we're joined by michael keating. he's the associate director and joins us from london. thanks for being with us. now the u.s. forces are in afghanistan to help get rid of the taliban, especially in this city. but obviously at what cost? just explain how this conflict could be resold without what the u.s. military calls collateral damage. >> first of all, let me say that this terrible story reveals a number of things. obviously the dangers facing humanitarian workers in conflict zones. secondly, that noncompetent tense and civilian are are the primary victims. i mean we've had more noncompetents and civilians killed in afghanistan this year relative to last year.

and this is a phenomenon that's not limited to afghanistan. we're seeing it in syria, iraq, semim yemen and so on. the importance of what the incident underscores, i'm afraid, the fact that the taliban took the town, the government is taking it back, i'm afraid we're in for a long haul. and it underscores the fundamental importance of trying to find way to reduce the violence. as part of a comprehensive political settlement, but to try and do it anyway as a competence building measure towards peace talks. >> now you've been to kunduz. do you know this hospital compound? can you give us a sense of the setup? >> i want been inside the compound. i've driven past the compound. it's a very well known facility. it's the only facility with the

kind of levels of care and equipment that can deal with major traumas in the whole region. everybody knows it. so it is pretty remarkable that it got hit. and i think we have to waut to hear the results of the investigation into that. but, you know, in these kinds of understa incidents, things get chaotic quickly. facilities like this do get hit. >> michael, when you were in afghanistan, you were working with the u.n. can you give us a sense of a struggle between the afghanistan government and the taliban? is it true that the theories that the taliban is actually gaining in strength particularly in the north? >> well, you know, what this incident again underskoscores i that the taliban continue to

have capability. i am not a military expert but people who have been looking at the footage of what's gone on in kunduz have noticed that the taliban had equipment that is relatively new, they clearly do have continued supply, they continue to be paid and so on. so they really have capability. and the fact that this took place in northern afghanistan -- i mean, normally the taliban are most active in the south or the east of the country. this really is a big, a big shock. what it also reveals is that while the government continues to have the ability to retake towns, you know, this kind of thing is likely to go on for a very long time, that the taliban probably in conjunction with local war lords, possibly criminal elements will have the capacity to take districts and occasionally capital.

the government will have the capacity to take this back. i fear that we're in for a long haul. and the real victims of this are going to be the ordinary people of afghanistan. we already have huge numbers of internally displaced people. large numbers of afghans wanting to leave the country because they've lost confident in the ability of the government and the taliban to find a peaceful way through this. so i fear we're going to see more of the same. and this is a real change in prospects for peace. >> michael keating, we could go on but we'll have to leave it there. thanks so much for you time today. >> pleasure. u.s. president barack obama has declared a state of emergency in south carolina following unprecedented flooding. derek van dam is here to join

us. >> we're talking about unprecedented events. something that specifically speaking would happen likely once in every 500 years. that puts it in perspective. i'll show you rainfall totals in just one moment. here's some of the footage coming out of the region. remember, it is still night time in this part of the world pop so we're only going to see the real effects of the catastrophic funding that's taking place as we speak for nor chester county and the charleston region. obama signed a disaster declaration. 102 road closures at this moment and several swift water rescues ongoing. in dorchester county, 100 people have been rescued from their homes. we naturally want to say what's causing this. is it the major hurricane, joaquin, across the atlantic.

indirectly, yes. here it is moving in its northeasterly direction. follow backwards towards the east koes. that is the tropical moisture plume getting wrapped up in another upper level low in the southeast and that is funneling in the constant barrage of heavy rainfall. that's likely to continue. take a look at some of the rainfall totals. charleston, you've had around 10.5 inches. i want to dig deep into charleston to talk about what's happening. with the upper level low and the funnel of moisture reaching the coastline of south carolina, remember we have two rivers joining up in charleston, the ashley and the cooper river. timing this with high tide, we get the surge of water that's coming from the waocean on top the on shore flow and the rain that's falling, that means

catastrophic flooding and the potential for more flooding stretching inland toward central south carolina. you can see the flash flood warnings from columbia to charleston. more rain is in the forecast, 10 to 15 inches of official precipitation. we talk about this being an historic event. when the national wet service starts using wording like historic and catastrophic, pay attention, turn around, don't drown. do anything you can to protect your life and country. head back for common ground. if you see standing water, get away. still to come, anger, sorrow and sympathy. after the break, the father of the gunman speaks out. air strikes against syria will continue and intensify.

authorities in the u.s. state of o or have released more

information about thursday's deadly rampage about a community college that left nine people dead. some ten minutes elapsed before the first emergency call to police and the reports that the suspected gunman were down. they've found 14 firearms connected to the shooter. >> i want to let you know that investigators located one additional handgun during the search of the shooter's residence, bringing the total number of guns seized to 14. now, to the officers involved in the shooting investigation. i have been asked to release the following information by the oregon state police on behalf of the oregon state medical examiner. the medical examiner has determined the cause of death of the shooter to be suicide. >> the gunman's father is speaking out about what led to

his son's actions. cnn's ryan young interviewed the father near california. take a listen. >> look, obviously this has been a tough time and we've talked just a little bit. you said you hurt for not only what's going on in your family but obviously for the other families that have been impacted. >> absolutely. it has been, as i said before, devastating for me and my family. but we're not alone in this. my heart goes out to all of the other families that were affected by this and i know words will not bring your families back and i know that nothing i can say can change what happened. but please believe me, my thoughts are with all of those families. and i hope that they can get through this. >> reporter: and when we talked before, you said you just really at a loss for words when it comes to something like this. there are so many questions obviously someone can ask you. you really said you don't have

answers for them in. >> sometimes you try to find the right words and there really isn't. there is nothing i can really say and find the right words. it's just sometimes it's overwhelming and, you know, trying to understand how it could happen is just incredible. i'm at a loss for words now even. >> reporter: you told me before you didn't want to talk too much about your son obviously because you're going through so much pain. but you also realize that people are going to remember him differently now forever. >> he will always be remembered for what he did on thursday, i know that. i can't change that. at the moment i'm just leaving it to the police to do their investigations as to, you know, his history and everything in his background. i'm sure they will announce what

they find all in good cause. right now i'm going to leave it up to them. the only thing i would like to say, the question that i would like to ask is how on earth could he compile 13 guns. how can that happen, you know. they talk about gun laws, they talk about gun control, effort something like this happens they talk about it and nothing is done. i'm not trying to say that that's to blame for what happened. but if chris had not been anyone to get ahold of 13 guns, it couldn't have happened. >> tune in one hour from now we'll run the full interview ryan young had with the gunman's father. russia says it will intensify its air strikes against targets in syria. the russian defense ministry said its air force bombed nine isis positions near the terror group's capital of raqqa.

some accuse russia of attacking civilians instead of fighting isis. phil black joins us live from moscow. now these air strikes have gone on for four straight days. what exactly are they striking? >> lynda, after four days, their operations, the russian government military officials say they've hit around 50 targets. all of them military planning command centers, weapons, bomb factories and so forth. they give updated lists every day. they're all military targets, all connected to isis or terrorists groups in some way. they use nose terms interchangeably. and they say as a result of that, they have considerably degraded the terrorist combat abilities. they have disrupted their infrastructure significantly. and an interesting claim, they

say all of this has triggered panic and desertion on the battlefield. they say that fighters on the ground are abandoning their positions. and they take the claim further by saying that 600 mercenaries have fled on their way to europe. they don't supply the information of how they know the travel plans of these 600 mercenaries. >> of course the coalition argued that the russians have propping up the assad regime and targeting the rebels fighting for ie tsisis. has russian given any information about a ground offense in in these regions? >> they've been clear saying that russian ground forces will not be involved in this war. they're not talking publicly about a ground operational. they talk about working closely with the syrian military officials. if you accept the assessment of the united states and its

coalition partners that what russia is doing is not striking isis specifically or at least they's not the focus. they claim what russia is doing is softening up targets, hitting other rebel opposition groups that are not a threat to isis but are a threat to the syrian regime and its military. if you accept that, following up on this, the syrian military would try to rehold, retake and hold that territory. >> thanks for your analysis of the situation. we'll talk to you soon. still to come on cnn newsroom, searchers find evidence of a ship that went missing in the middle of joaquin. plus, a priest tells the world he's gay and introduces his boyfriend to the pope. and shortly thereafter he gets fired. find out why he made his announcement when he did when we

hello, i'm lyinda kincade. doctors without border is calling for an independent investigation after a deadly air strike hit its hospital in northern afghanistan, 19 people were killed, 12 staff members and 7 patients. an american gun ship was firing on taliban positions in the area at the time the trauma center was hit. authorities in the u.s. state of oregon now say the gunman behind the deadly rampage at a community college committed suicide. he apparently shot himself after exchanging gun fire with police. nine people were killed in

thursday's massacre. two people are dead and two others injured after 19-year-old palestinian attacked them with a life and a gun in jerusalem's city. police shot and killed the teen. tensions have been especially high since last month's attack at the mosque. australia has mashed england 33-13 in the rugby world cup. the loss makes england the first world cup host to lose in the first stages of the tournament. australia will face wales in the next round. the vatican has fired a polish priest from his job with the holly sea after he announced that he's gay and he has a boyfriend. with his partner at his side on sunday, he called for the catholic church to change its teachings against home wall relationships. the announcement came on the eve of a global church meeting on

the family which is getting under way right now. we turn right now to our vatican correspondent live in rome. give us a sense if this is a matter of the catholic church taking a position on homosexuality or rather on a priest that's in a relationship which of course isn't allowed in the catholic church whether you're homosexual or heterosexual. >> reporter: that's right, lynda. yes. what's happened here is the monsignor who's worked at the office swins 2003, he came out in the video saying he was gay and had a boyfriend which of course in itself would be grounds for dismissal because priests are not supposed to be in relationships whether gay or state. but when the vatican fired him, if the statement they said his decision to come out was irresponsible on the eve of this meeting. the opening mass of the meeting

is being held and this is the month long meeting that pope francis called to discuss issues about the family, about declining birth rates and divorce and the gay. so the vatican saw it as an attempt to draw attention on the issue of the gays. it is likely he would have been removed any way but in the statement they made the additional point that they didn't appreciate his coming out and the timing of it in particular. >> in the past when the pope has been asked about gay priests, he said something along the lines of it's not up to me to judge. what can we expect him to say during this month long meeting when it comes to homosexuality? >> reporter: yeah. this is the difficult line that the pope and the catholic church tries to walk between being welcoming towards gay people. because technically for the catholic church, its not a problem that you are gay.

the problem is gay relationships. and the cardinals that i've spoken to in the run up to the senate, we've asked them, could there be a change in the church's teaching on gays. and they have all said we want to be welcoming towards gays. pope francis saying who am i to judge echos their sentiments. but gay people would like to see there is a change in the teaching on their relationships, that the unions could be blessed or that there could be gay marriage. and most of the cardinals here have said that's just not going to be a possibility for them. lynda? >> we'll leave it there for now. thanks very much for the update. talk to you soon. and the death toll from a massive landslide in guatemala has risen to 86. dozens of homes were buried after the side of a rain-soaked hill crashed down on to the down near guatemala city. the rescue workers are searching

for an estimated 350 people who are still missing. the u.s. coast guard has located a life ring belonging to a missing container ship. elferro went missing on wednesday while navigating through hurricane joaquin. the ship has 33 people on board, 28 of them americans. the ring was found about 75 miles, that's about 120 kill lo meters from the ship's last location. meteorologist derek van dam was on board one of the planes that was helping with that search. >> we're currently 600 feet above the ocean's surface, directly in the middle of hurricane joaquin's eye. we're searching for a stranded ship. we've been looking for it for the past 20 minutes. this has turned from weather data retrieval to search and

rescue. >> for more on this, that was an incredible vix of you when you went through the eye of the storm. >> right. >> explain how difficult it is for rescue worker to try to find a cargo ship in these conditions. >> you consider the conditions they had to put up with. i was there first hand, experienced it myself. the winds have so strong around the periphery or eye wall of a hurricane that's category 4 strength. you can imagine what that does to the sea below. now we were on a different mission. it was a privilege in itself to go out with the 53rd reconnaissance squad known as the hurricane hunters. our original mission was to gather data for hurricane joaquin and send it back to the national hurricane center. but at the end our mission was averted to look and search for this lost cargo ship. unfortunately we were not able to find it. but u was incredible what we had to do. we dropped from 10,000 feet to

600 feet above the ocean floor to get as close a perspective to the water as possible. unfortunately we didn't find anything. but we saw the conditions that the distressed ship certainly had to go through during those moments heading up to their sos emergency call that they initiated on thursday. and that was rough seas, extremely strong winds and very, very turbulent weather. so the conditions there were extreme and it's going to be a fascinating story to see what comes next. >> well hopefully they can locate this ship and hopefully everyone on board is safe. >> i agree. >> thanks for the update. well amid harsh austerity measures, voters in portugal are heading to the polls. we're live in lisbon after the break. aveeno® daily moisturizig lotion with 5 vital nutrients

welcome back.

voting is underway in portugal. kicked up a almost two hours ago. these are the first general elections since the country e mernged from an economic bailout. the election is being viewed as a referendum on the country's belt tightening and tax heights. isa suarez looks at what the impact means for portugal and its economic future. >> after four grueling years, portugal gets to express his content. the choices being offered at the polls are not new. on the political right. elected in 20111, the current leader of the right wing have pushed through tax hikes. he's not mincing words promising more of the same. >> translator: our strategy is

the same because the strategy is correct. we came to the selection with the past as i've been saying but above all a past that gay us today a presence with more confidence for all portuguese. >> challenging him, a socialist who has been campaigning on a platform of lesser austerity were more investment, social justice and equality. >> translator: we must establish a new fundamental priority for our economic priority, to bring employment policy to the top of our priorities, jobs with a future must be the principle goal of a new economic policy in portugal. >> it's a bold promise but it seems this is failing to sway the voters. according to the latest polls, the socialists party is trailing the ruling coalition by six points.

this is mostly driven by exports. however unemployment remains one of the high nest the eurozone, just over 12%. but that's not the main problem. this is. debt. 130% of gdp but that is not all. >> in terms of the fiscal deficit, the number one thing that led to the deficit is basically an example of the changes that portugal faces in the near term. >> in the short term voters seem indifferent this selection, fatigued by austerity. whoever wins on sunday faces the challenge of possibly governing -- >> sorry. we seem to have having a couple of problems there. we're going to speak to someone about the porch nal elections coming up after the break. still to come as well, could the

nfl soon expand their gam abroad in london? details just after the break.

for more perspective on the

portugal elections, let's turn to the editor in portugal and he joins us from lisbon. thanks for being with us. obviously we any that the economy is arguably the biggest issue this election, unsustainable debt is a big issue. explain to us how the country's economy is fairing right now. >> the economy is not growing actually, although it's unevenly growing. poverty is higher than it was. the gdp really is growing mainly based on exports which is good news. we have raised from 20% of exports on gdp to 40% of exports on gdp and that's very good news. however, it is still a weak and uneven growth and we face

unplimt still one of the highest in europe. so we are looking investments in order to boost the economy to get a bigger growth today. >> i think i reads unemployment now standing at now 20%. now similarities have been pointed out between portugal and greece. but unlike the radical elected in greece, we're looking at the main straem parties. what are the people voting on? >> unemployment is actually on 12%, 12.4% and it's higher among young people, about 30%. but unlike greece, whichas also rivalled portugal has aus been kind of a poster boy if the last four years in the mainstream policies of the european commission. so i suppose that people still have voting for austerity program, even the socialists which is the second major party,

is not only committed to the euro and to the same fiscal targets, they don't neglect the austerity either. they defend a lighter austerity to spear up economic growth. the portuguese people know they're voting for austerity program. we're hoping that not only the public accounts keep on track as they are now, but that we can get a more expressive economical growth and mainly a more evenly distributed growth. >> okay. we'll have to leave it there for now. we really appreciate your time today. thanks you very much for joining us. well, fish, chips and pig skin. that's what's on the menu in london as the u.s. national football league kicks off their

previous deal healed by fox and espn. last night's game averaged 1.4 million viewers with to be most watched live premier match in u.s. history. but can the u.s. offer them more than a tv audience. according to one side, it can. >> we've been to this place a few times and we've got good relationships already in the country. but we're always impressed by the quality of the players and the quality of the coaches. the coaches came to learn. they want to understand what we did in england. and obviously we came to learn what's going on in the states. >> every summer a host of type english clubs take transatlantic flights to play a plethora of preseason friendlies. chelsea, manchester united, new

big play is coming here, you know. making sure that it's only getting better and better. and i think it's definitely changed over the years. and i think it's going to change even more. >> with the bigger names they get, the more popular it gets. >> the transatlantic deal doesn't end there. it's not just sock are that they're interested in. the club will host two nfl matches a year for a decade when the north londoners move into their $700 million stadium in 2018. further proof that the relations in terms of football are stronger than ever. kate riley, cnn. here's a look at sunday matchups available for viewing in the u.s. everton with take on liverpool, arsenal plays host to rival manchester united. england has been eliminated

doctors without borders wants to know why aerial bombardments blew apart its hospital in after zban stan killing patients and care gives inside. plus -- ♪ the pope is leading the opening mass for a nearly month long meeting with church leaders. it comes a day after the vatican fired a priest who announced he was in a gay relationship. we'll go live to rome. the father of the shooter who killed nine people in oregon talks to cnn about gun control in the u.s. and opens up about his heartache. hello, welcome to our viewers in the u.s. and around the world. i'm lynda kinkade and this is cnn newsroom. we'll begin in afghanistan where the u.s. is investigating a deadly air strike.

the u.s. military is investigating whether one of its gun ships is responsible for the i a tack. doctors without borders who runs the hospital says the strike lasted for almost an hour. 12 taf members and seven patients were killed including three children. u.s. president barack obama is offering his deepest condolences to the doctors, staffers and civilians killed or injured in the spritrike. he's not accepting blame for what happened saying the department of defense has announced a full investigation and we'll await the result of of that inquiry. let's bring in nic robertson live in kabul. the united nations has come out with harsh words, calling it tragic inexcusable and possibly

criminal. we know the united states is investigating. do you think there will be an independent investigation. can we expect that? >> reporter: an independent investigation is what doctors without borders is asking for that awant to make sure it's transparent and open to the world to see. if the u.s. military investigates it as they are doing and as they plan to do, there is a concern that that may leave doubts in some people's minds of the yououtcome of that investigation. everyone at the moment thinks it's too soon to prejudge the situation because the u.s.-led investigation has only just begun. but what doctors without borders says that is very important here, it's not just what happened at the hospital in c kunduz. this sends a message for all of their ma silties across the world and all other medical facilities across the world in war torn places. and if the united states

accidentally strikes a hospital, then that gives others in conflict zones greater latitude to feel that hospitals could get involved in the conflict. so what they're calling for is something that is -- an investigation that is very clear, transparent to the whole world and everybody gets a clear picture and understanding of what happened and why it happened and how it happened. that's the concern. what doctors without borders are telling us today is that the hospital in kunduz is no longer functional because of the level of destruction that happened there. we've also heard some harrowing accounts from a nurse who was at the hospital. she was in her room at the time. that room wasn't struck, but she -- as soon as she figured out what was going on, there was an attack going on, as soon as she figured out and got to the buildings where the smoke and flames were engulfing the be building, she describe being able to see in the icu unit,

patients in their beds who were being engulfed in flames and couldn't get out. very harrowing scenes. and also in the operating theater there, people dead and injured in the operating theater. very harrowing accounts of what eyewitnesses to this have seen. and of course this for doctors without borders is very personal. that's why they want a thorough clear transparent accounting. >> the afghan ministry said of course that taliban militants were hiding in this hospital. has the taliban responded to that claim? >> reporter: well, even doctors without borders say that the taliban had respected the hospital, that even earlier in the week when they had come to the hospital, they told the doctors there to continue working, that they weren't going to harm them.

the doctors would borders say that the taliban were respecting the limits of the hospital compound as being a limit for no weapons to be brought in. they say the taliban respecting that. what we heard from government, they say the taliban were hiding behind people, using people as human shields. the government talk about summary executions of medical workers. an necessity international published a report about the fighting in kunduz which talked about summary execution of medical workers. there are a lot of details that we don't know. a lot of details that an investigation would put out in the open for everyone to see. but the concern is that were the taliban in their firing from there, was that why, you know, fire power was called in. was it a mistake of some other means. certainly doctors without borders believe that their compounds rule and the rule of hospital compounds in afghanistan, the international

humanitarian law around the world was being respected at that facility. there were no weapons there, therefore no reason for fire power to be drawn on that location. >> nic robertson in kabul afghanistan. thank you for the update. doctors without borders says it previously told parties the hospital's exact location so it would not be hit. and as nic mentioned, the aid group announced last hour that the trauma center is no longer functional. we spoke with christopher stokes, the general director of the aid group about the attack. >> amongst the patients left, three of them were children. the patients who died, apparently some patients managed to make it under -- in a kind of bunker or a cellar under the

hospital. those who died were probably burnt in their beds actually. this part of the hospital caught fire. >> they were burnt in their beds? i can't imagine the panic and confusion in the middle of the night for people who found themselves under attack. >> yeah. it was an absolutely dreadful scene. and this is a hospital that's been in kunduz and the conflict around kunduz started four or five days. it was packed. there were over 100 patients. our staff was in the hospital as well and there was complete chaos. this is really a complete breach of humanitarian law. we sent the coordinates of the hospital to every party of the conflict in kabul, in washington and even with the afghan

opposition. there really is no -- nobody can claim that they didn't know what this building was. it's a big white visible building in the middle of kunduz. >> once again, in the midst of panic of the care strike, do you have any sense of how your staff tried to alert u.s. authorities that they were under attack? were they working by phone? did they know who to contact? were they trying by e-mail? how do you go about telling a plane flying above you to stop firing? >> again, nobody can be 100% sure so far. that's why we're calling for an independent investigation of what really happened. it's true that everything does point to a coalition plane having conducted this attack. so we were in contact with the u.s. authorities very quickly, actually during the one-hour period of this attack we had contact with the u.s. authorities to inform them that the msf hospital was under attack. >> now the u.s. military has launched an investigation. you're calling for an investigation.

is that the investigation you want? will you have confidence in what u.s. authorities tell you about what happened? >> we need an investigation that's as independent and as transparent as possible. and we don't only want the findings to be shared, we want to be able to read the full report. we've lost some of our colleagues who have been working with us for a number of years. we've had to close the hospital. there is no access to trauma care now for these -- for the civilians and the wounded in the area of kunduz which is a battleground at the moment. so the results are important for us but also for the ability of humanitarian actors to continue working and provide life saving assistance in afghanistan. >> was there any way that a pilot or a u.s. military figure could have been confused by the presence or the proximity of the taliban? >> so the compound is gated. we have a lot of our staff in that compound. and specifically, especially in

this building -- this is the core of the hospital where you have the intensive care unit et cetera. we had msf staff there. if there was a major military operation ongoing there, our staff would have noticed. that wasn't the case actually when the strikes occurred. and as i said, the compound was gated. now of course when it comes to the patients there, we don't know -- if somebody is wounded, they're noncompetent and under humanitarian national law, they should be treated as such and are not legitimate targets. we treat everybody, regardless of race or religion. the people who were in the hospital, the people we were treating were wounded. and whoever was in there can't justify an attack on a hospital, which is protected by international humanitarian law, of which all of the coalition countries are signatories. >> a short time ago, a military

analyst explained how a war plane might accidentally open fire on a civilian hospital. he described the tragic series of mistakes. >> reading the eyewitness reports of what happened, it sounds like it was an ac-130 gunship. and they say bombs going off. really those were the guns on the ac-130. it carrying a 40-millimeter cannon and a howitzer. these are devastating weapons. unfortunately they were hitting the wrong target. i can tell you what happened. it was dark. things are happening very quickly. they're looking through sensors. very difficult to understand what's going on when you're in that environment. it was just a tragic series of errors. i think we're going to find out that's what happened. i agree that med sense sans frons tears need answers. we've got to get to the bottom of this and tight unup to

procedures. these thing happen. i know that's trite. but as long as the taliban is pressing the attacks, we're going to have to respond. >> this air strike happened against the backdrop of the u.s. so ligs's fight against terror. 0 coalition fighters were going after the taliban. america's southeast is getting hit with deadly flooding. emergency crews in south carolina say they've carried out dozens of water rescues. four people have died in weather releeted incident. the historic rainfall is from a combination of hurricane joaquin and a second weather system. u.s. president barack obama has declared a state of emergency in south carolina. derek van dam from the weather center joins us now. put it into perspective for us. >> statistically speaking, this type of an event would happen once in every 500 years for that

particular location. we've got all kinds of records being broken across south carolina. first, take a look at some of these new videos posted to cnn which are drone visuals of just how flooded the roadways are. this was taken yesterday because it's still dark there. but we'll get the full comp mention of how bad the flooding is by the time the sunrises at 7:00 this morning. here's a couple of stats for you. downtown charleston received 14.25 inches of rainfall since the storm began, 9.2r5 inches of rain in a 24-hour period. that made the third wettest single day in one year. it is also the wettest day ever recorded in october in charleston and also the number one wettest october and it's only the 4th. can you believe it? unbelievable stuff. unprecedented. when you hear the words unpre

unprecedented or catastrophic, you know this means business. over 18 inches of rain in berkeley county, south carolina in 24 hours. wow. can you imagine? this is the situation. we have to give some sort of credit to joaquin for this one. look at this almost a fire hose effect of tropical moisture wrapping around an upper level low. there's more rainfall to come across south carolina. this is going to cause serious concerns, especially from charleston into the lum bee ya region as an additional six to ten inches is possible from this particular storm system. we've got onshore winds combining with the high tide that happened about two hours ago. nonetheless, we have two combining rivers across this area, factor the onshore flow and the rainfall that continue to take place in this area. it's no wonder the national weather service issued emergency flash flood warnings for those

shades of red. and you can see some of the overnight visuals coming out of that region. we will get the full extent of this flooding situation once the sun comes up. but one thing i do know is that there have been over 100 rescues already taking place in the dorchester region alone with several hundred more people stranded in their homes and their cars. >> wow. no doubt some people will be facing a big cleanup. >> without a doubt. i don't expect the water to recede until it comes to a complete end sunday night into monday. >> thank you very much. well, pope francis has opened the 14th general assembly of the business shops at the vatican. these are live pictures of the mass he's host tlg. it's a three-week long meeting of business shops from around the world focused on the issues facing catholic families. and it is expected gay and lesbian relationships will be on the agenda as well.

just a day ago, a polish priest working at the vatican announced h's gay and has a boyfriend. the vatican stripped him of his assignment. he said he timed his announcement to correspond with this meeting. deal ya gallagher is live in rome with all of this. explain to us why he has been forced to step down from his job. >> reporter: well this is a priest work in the top vot can's office since 2003, a long time. and he came out in a vie, said he was gait and had a boyfriend. so that in itself would be reason to fire him because of course priests are not supposed to be in any relationship, gay or straight. but the vatican was particularly disturbed by the timing of his announcement, which they say coming on the eve of this month long meeting was aimed to put media pressure on the issue of

gays and gay marriage. so they didn't appreciate that. they probably would have fired him anyway because as we said, he's a priest and he shouldn't be in a relationship. but much of the upset about his announcement comes because it comes right at this time. you see the opening mass happening now. tomorrow these bishops and cardinals will go into meetings lasting for three weeks. they want to talk about lots of issues facing the family, declining birth rates, divorce but also on the agenda are the issues related to gays. lynda? >> and of course we know in the past the whoep who has been questioned about homosexuality says it as not up for me to judge. that's me paraphrasing what he said. how do you think he is going to talk about this address this in the coming weeks? >> reporter: well, the pope and most of the cardinals are all on the same page about this, that is that they don't want to condemn the gay person.

they want to make a distinction between the person and the behavior. and so what they say they cannot allow are gay relationships. so they cannot have blessings for gay unions or gay marriage which is of course what gay people would like to see. they'd like to see that kind of a change or see a change in the language of the catholic church toward gays. currently the language about gays refer to the gay tendency as a disorder. so there are a number of smaller issues in the larger question of gays in the catholic church. but the pope and the cardinals want to say we are welcoming towards gay people. we do not condemn the person but we cannot allow the behavior or gay marriage. >> some important discussions that will be had other the coming weeks. thank you very much. well russia is stepping up its air strikes against syria. but concerns are growing among the international community over moscow's intentions. we seal have the details of that

coming up. the only thing i would like the say, question i would like to ask is how on earth could he compile 14 guns. how can that happen? >> and later we hear from the father of the gunman behind the deadly campus rampage in oregon. plus, voters head to the polls in portugal. we'll show you what's at stake for the country's economic future. guys listen up! jake, put that down point it at the ground til your ready that's not the ground leo put that down when your day goes on and on, you need 48 hour odor protection that goes on clear for no white marks. secret outlast clear gel. same eyes. same laugh. and since she's had moderate alzheimer's disease, i've discovered we have the same fighting spirit, too. that's why i asked her doctor about new once-a-day namzaric™. vo: new namzaric is approved

for moderate to severe alzheimer's disease in patients who are currently taking, and can continue to take certain doses of both namenda and donepezil. new namzaric is the first and only treatment to combine 2 proven alzheimer's medicines into a single once-a-day capsule that works 2 ways to fight the symptoms of moderate to severe alzheimer's disease. once-a-day namzaric may improve cognition and overall function and may slow the worsening of symptoms for a while. namzaric does not change how the disease progresses. it shouldn't be taken by anyone allergic to memantine, donepezil, piperidine or any of the ingredients in namzaric. before starting treatment, tell the doctor about any medical conditions they have... including heart or lung problems, seizures, stomach ulcers, bladder, kidney, or liver problems. tell the doctor if the patient will have any procedures involving anesthesia, which may cause muscle problems. other serious side effects may occur, including slow heartbeat and fainting; increased stomach acid, which may raise the chance of ulcers and bleeding; nausea and vomiting; difficulty passing urine, seizures,

and worsening of lung problems. the most common side effects associated with namzaric are headache, diarrhea, dizziness, loss of appetite, and bruising. woman: mom and i share a lot of moments. and we're making the most of each one. vo: ask your doctor if new namzaric is right for your loved one. when you're not confident your company's data is secure, the possibility of a breach can quickly become the only thing you think about. that's where at&t can help. at at&t we monitor our network traffic so we can see things others can't. mitigating risks across your business. leaving you free to focus on what matters most. go to ziprecruiter.com and post your job to over one hundred of the web's leading job boards with a single click. then simply select the best candidates from one easy to review list. and now you can use zip recruiter for free. go to ziprecruiter.com.

russia says it will intensify its air strikes against targets in syria. the russian defense ministry said its air force bombed nine isis positions near the terror group's capital of raqqa on saturday, the fourth straight day of air strikes. some accuse russia of attacking civilians instead of fighting isis. for more on the air strikes, we turn to cnn's phil black. he joins us live from moscow. what exactly are they striking? >> they've struck some 50 targets since they began bombing in syria.

they insist they're only going after isis or what they call terrorists targets. they give daily, sometimes more than once a day they provide lists of what they're hitting. they're always military in description from command centers to train centers to ammunition depots. they're always described as isis or terrorist related. it's had a big effect of degrading the combat abilities of the terrorists, that's the word they use. more than that they say it's triggering panic and causing fighters on the ground to abandon their positions. they won't tell us how they know this but they're claiming that some 600 of the fighters have fled the battle seen and are trying to make their way to europe. now all of that is the russian assessment. they's what they've told us in their latest update. but the position of the international coalition led by the united states remains that russia is not specifically hitting isis. that's not the focus of its

operations. but rather it is going after other rebel groups, opposition groups that really pose a direct threat to the regime of bashar al assad. >> what's the likelihood that russia is launching the air strikes in these areas in order for syrian group troops to move in and launch a ground offensive. is russia commenting on that? >> russia hasn't talked about ground operations specifically expect to say that its own ground forces will not be involved in syria itself. that's the only specific point they have made. but if you do accept that assessment made by the united states and its coalition partners that russia isn't hitting isis but rather hitting the anti-assad forces, then it would be logical to assume that having softened them up for some time, having hit them while working in conjunction with the syrian military, which is what russia says it's doing, it would seem likely that the syrian

ground forces would take advantage of that, move forward and try to retake and hold the territory they had previously lost. >> that would make sense. thank you very much. talk to you soon. human rights watch group says mexico is in grave crisis. the inter-american human rights commission went there and met with crime victims on friday, including the families of 43 missing students who are feared to be massacred last year but whose remains have yet to be found. the commission says that case was not a unique example of violence in the country. >> another deeply troubling phenomenon is that of executi s executions. in southern mexico state, in june of 2014, in january 2015

and also in may 2015. >> mexico's deputy interior minister says the commission's report does not reflect mexico's current situation as a whole. still to come, the latest u.s. mass shooting has many looking for answers about the high number of gun deaths in the country. coming up we'll speak to an australia gun control man about improvements made to their system. hold the phone.

welcome back to our viewers in the united states and around the world. i'm lynda kinkade. here's abupdate of the top

stories. u.s. military is investigating whether an american gunship was responsible for a deadly air strike on this hospital in northern afghanistan. doctors without borders says 19 people including 12 staff members were killed. the aid group says it previously told all parties the hospital's location so it would not be struck. rescue workers in guatemala are digging through mud and debris in search of an estimated 350 people who are missing following a deadly landslide thursday night, near gaut maul la city. a three week long meeting of cathol catholic bi catholic bishops is getting under way. it's convening one day after a priest was fired from his vatican job after announcing

he's gay and in a rup. he called on the church to change its doctrines on same-sex relationships. well we're getting more information about the gunman in thursday's massacre in the u.s. state of oregon. police now say the shooter died of a self inflicted gunshot wound after exchanging fire with the police. authorities have recovered 14 firearms linked to the gunman. nine people were killed and nine more were wounded when the shooter opened fire at a community college. investigators are looking into blog posts linked to the gunman which describe feelings of isolation and frustration. in an interview with cnn's ryan young, the shooter's father spelled out what he says is another major factor in this case. >> i has been, as i said before, devastating for me and my family.

but we're not alone in this. my heart goes out to all of the other families that were affected by this and i know words will not bring your families back and i know that nothing i can say can change what happened. but please believe me, my thoughts are with all of those families. and i hope that they can get through this. >> reporter: and when we talked before, you said you just really at a loss for words when it comes to something like this. there are so many questions obviously someone can ask you. you really said you don't have answers for them in. >> sometimes you try to find the right words and there really isn't. there is nothing i can really say and find the right words. it's just -- sometimes it's overwhelming and, you know, trying to understand how it could happen is just incredible. i'm at a loss for words now even. >> reporter: you told me before you didn't want to talk too much

about your son obviously because you're going through so much pain. but you also realize that people are going to remember him differently now forever. >> he will always be remembered for what he did on thursday, i know that. i can't change that. at the moment i'm just leaving it to the police to do their investigations as to, you know, his history and everything in his background. i'm sure they will announce what they find all in good cause. right now i'm going to leave it up to them. the only thing i would like to say, the question that i would like to ask is, how on earth could he compile 13 guns? how can that happen, you know? they talk about gun laws, they

talk about gun control, every time something like this happens they talk about it and nothing is done. i'm not trying to say that that's to blame for what happened. but if chris had not been able to get ahold of 13 guns, it couldn't have happened. >> that's a very powerful statement coming from you. how did he get the 13 guns? that's what everyone is going to ask, even though you're asking the question. >> you don't see these kind of mass shootings around the world on a consistent basis like you do in the united states. so somebody has to ask the question, how is it so easy to get all the guns. how is it so easy? 13 guns. i've never held a gun in my life. i never want the to. but i know there are people that do. but you have to ask the question, how was he able to compile that kind of arsenal. >> reporter: did you know he had 13 guns? >> i had no idea he had any guns. i have no idea that he had any guns whatsoever.

and i'm a great believer that you don't buy guns, don't buy guns, you don't buy guns. >> reporter: so even you, you want changes. you want the gun laws to change? >> it has to change. it has to change. how can it not? even people that believe in the right to baear arms, what right do you have to take lives. 's simple as that, black and white. what do you want the gun for? >> despite a loud outcry for gun reform in the united states, many people in the u.s. strongly oppose any change in gun laws, thane cluds presidential candidate donald trump. at an event on saturday, he promoted the use of guns. >> by the way, it was a gun free zone. i will tell you, if you had a couple of the teachers or somebody with guns in that room, you would have been a hell of a

lot better off. >> australia implemented sweeping gun control measures 20 years ago, prompted by a 1996 shooting massacre that claimed the lives of 35 people. rapid fire rivals and shot guns were band. gun owner licensing was tightened. uniform national standards for registered firearms were established and more than 1 million guns were collected and destroyed in a national buyback program. in the years following the risk of dying by gunshot in australia fell by more than 50%. firearm suicide rates dropped by 0%. for more on all of this, sam lee is joining us. she's the chair of the gun control australia lobby and joins us by skype from sydney. thanks for being with us. president obama referenced australia's gun laws several times now. he's had plenty of opportunity to do that. he's made 15 addresses since becoming president after a mass

shooting. for our international audience, briefly describe the last massacre in australia and the response by the government. >> well our last massacre was in 1996 where agunmen has semi automatic long arms and used that to kill 35 people and injured 19 other. >> president obama said to an american audience, we've become numb to this. americans are used to hearing about mass shootings. just this last year, according to one of our main source of trackers with, there have been 294 mass shooting. but it seems any change to gun laws has so much resistance here. what do you think needs to happen to push through change? >> well, i think there needs to be an international response to

this problem. gun laws in america does have an impact on the international community, marly that there are over 200,000 australians living in america and 2.1 million australians who visit america each year. i think the issue needs to be taken up at the u.n. level. both australia and america are signatures to the arms trade treaty which does allow room for discussion on these particular types of issues. another issue that we've raise here in australia is for our prime minister to place bans on the political firearm industry. we're hoping that will be support but our prime minister here so he would then be able to make some representations to the u.s. president and be able to push them to not take donations from the firearms industry. >> the last time president obama tried to introduce some very

modest changes here they failed. when australia introduced changes, obviously there was a lot of resistance there. just explain how much resistance there was at the time. and the prime minister at the time joan howard wore a flack jacket to the first address about this. >> there was resistance from pro-gun lobby groups. however there was not resistance from the general public. there was 92% of support for tighter gun regulation in 199637 and the key difference between obama and john howard, the prime minister at the time, is john howard had just won his position back in to be prime minister on a significant majority. he then changed gun laws only a year later. so he had the momentum and support behind him and not the political pressure of an upcoming election. i think that made a huge amount of difference.

but also there was an outpouring of grief and absolute shock across the country in relation to the port massacre. and the public generally supported tighter gun regulation. and this meant that both state and territories were able to implement uniform gun laws and that is a key part of any everyone mentation of gun laws and their success in our country. >> in the u.s., besides the national -- the nra, there seems to be a very real fear among some sectors that they need guns because they distrust the government. the president almost joked about it yesterday. how do you get through to those people? >> well, you won't. you won't get through to the very tough pro-gun lobby group. what you do need to get through to is the people who are on the borders, those who don't support gun control. and what president obama needs to the or anyone who takes up the president position later

needs to consider any political donations by firearms industry, which is causing the blockage in congress appears to be these cozy relationship between political parties and gun lobby groups. and that cozy relationship has begun due to donations being made to political parties. once you make a donation to a political party, they're appears to be an expectation that you should get something for that money and. >> that's a avery good point. thank you for joining us js you're most welcome. thank you. still to come, it's election day in portugal. ahead we'll show you what's in stake in the general elections which with underway right now. good. very good. you see something moving off the shelves and your first thought is to investigate the company.
