FOX News: Siege on Afghan hospital maternity ward leaves more than a dozen, including babies, dead

Gunmen attempted to siege a hospital in Kabul Tuesday morning where Doctors Without Borders runs a maternity clinic, killing at least 13 people, including two newborn babies, according to reports.

At least 15 others were wounded in the attack at the Dasht-e-Barchi hospital located in a mostly Shiite Muslim neighborhood in Afghanistan’s capital. At least three armed men dressed in police uniforms stormed the building and began throwing grenades and shooting, The Guardian reported.
