Not a safe place just yet

AFP has the story:
Three Western women aid workers and their Afghan driver were shot dead Wednesday by gunmen who fired numerous times into their vehicle near Kabul. The killings, claimed by the insurgent Taliban, are the deadliest in years involving international aid workers and come amid warnings about deteriorating security, said to be at its worst since the 2001 ouster of the Taliban regime. The women were members of the International Rescue Committee, which has worked with refugees in Afghanistan for 25 years... A spokesman for the Taliban, Zabihullah Mujahed, said men from his militia had ambushed a two-vehicle convoy in Logar transporting "military personnel, most of them female." "We killed several of them... they were all military," he said.
Rico says apparently there are yet more Taliban that need killing...
