KABUL (Reuters) - Medecins Sans Frontiers (MSF) reopened a small medical clinic in Kunduz, Afghanistan, on Saturday, their first facility there since the American airstrikes that destroyed a hospital in 2015.

"The opening of this clinic is the first step towards providing more medical assistance in Kunduz," Silvia Dallatomasina, head of programs for MSF in Afghanistan, told Reuters. "And for us it's an important step."
