Despite years of aid, medical care in Afghanistan remains severely limited as casualty rates from violence climb, humanitarian organisation Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) warns in a report.

Gaping holes in the war-torn country's healthcare system are being obscured by misleading narratives of success, it says.

Reliable data is hard to come by, but MSF says patient testimonies paint a troubling picture.

Many struggle to access basic care.
