Charity Worker Murdered in Afghanistan by Taliban

Two gunmen shot and killed a female aid worker in Kabul yesterday as the woman walked to her organization’s office in the Kart-e-Char neighborhood, reports The Washington Post.

A Taliban spokesman said the group carried out the attack because the woman, Gayle Williams, a citizen of both Britain and South Africa, worked for a Christian aid organization, Serve Afghanistan.
