More on massacre of civilian aid workers



The bodies of ten civilian aid workers killed by the Taliban in Afghanistan have been flown to a hospital in the capital Kabul to confirm their identities. The Taliban said it killed the group, who worked for a Christian medical charity, in the country's north last Thursday for trying to convert Afghans to Christianity - a claim the organisation has denied. Officials said they are trying to gather evidence from the bodies to verify the identity of the victims, which include six Americans, two Germans and two Afghans.
