Suspected Taleban insurgents killed three female aid workers and their Afghan driver in an ambush on Wednesday, officials said, the bloodiest single attack on foreign humanitarian workers in Afghanistan in recent years. Abdullah Wardak, the governor of Logar province south of Kabul where the incident took place, said the women and their driver were traveling towards Kabul when they were attacked with small-arms fire from another car. “Three foreign women employees of IRC (International Rescue Committee) and their local driver were killed in this ambush by the opposition forces,” he said. Security forces have recovered the bodies of the victims, Wardak said.
