KABUL: Doctors Without Borders said on Monday (Jun 15) it would close its maternity ward in Kabul due to fears of further attacks after three gunmen last month opened fire at the clinic, killing 24 people including new mothers and babies.

No group has claimed responsibility for the May 12 attack on the clinic run by the international health agency, which is also known by its French name Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF).
