Medecins Sans Frontieres Pulls Out of Afghanistan
Medecins Sans Frontieres withdraws from Afghanistan citing the failed probe into the June killings of five workers and fear of new attacks. Bombings targeted election activities underscore deteriorating security that hampers humanitarian aid, with MSF recalling foreign staff and suspending operations. The move follows past violence that has killed over 30 aid workers since March 2008 and raises concerns about aid delivery in the north and other regions.
