February 13, 2012

At a hospital in Hangu district, in Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province, the Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) team treats a large number of patients for trauma caused by road accidents and shootings. Health workers are also trying to bring down the high rate of maternal mortality in the area. MSF treated 20,000 patients in Hangu, including many mothers, in 2011.
