Afghanistan to send doctors to disaster zone (http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=story_6-1-2005_pg4_22)
"Afghans donated blood on Wednesday for the victims of last week’s devastating tsunami, and the government asked the US military to help it send war-hardened doctors to the disaster zone. About a dozen medics and a planeload of medicine and equipment would leave for India and Sri Lanka as soon as possible, the Defence Ministry said. 'We have our own problems, but we are part of the family of nations,' said ministry spokesman Gen Zaher Mohammed Azimi. 'The people of Afghanistan are saddened by this disaster'."
