Patients who came to the hospital welcomed the four days of free treatment.

We are so happy for the hospital and for these Pakistani doctors,” said Pashtun, a resident of Kabul.

Pakistani doctors say that in addition to performing operations they will collaborate with Afghan doctors and offer education.
