ATTACK IN AFGHANISTAN
Twelve mothers and nurses killed at the hospital
12 mothers and nurses and two babies were killed on Tuesday in an attack on a hospital in the northern part of Kabul, where "Doctors Without Borders" runs a maternity hospital, Afghan officials said.
At least 15 other people were injured, including children.
The attack on the hospital in the capital of Afghanistan was carried out by armed people. The Taliban denied that they were behind the attack for which no one has yet claimed responsibility.
According to officials, three people in police uniforms broke into the hospital and started firing and throwing bombs, the agencies report.
"Security forces evacuated dozens of people from the hospital and among them were women and children," a spokesman for the interior minister said.
The attacked hospital, which has 100 beds, is located in one of the poorest parts of Kabul.
