Taliban control at Kabul airport after US withdrawal, terrorists patrolling
The Taliban took full control of Kabul’s international airport on Tuesday with the departure of the last American plane from Afghanistan.
With this, America’s longest war also came to an end. Taliban fighters are seen patrolling the airport. Outside the airport, Afghan citizens are still hoping to flee the rebel regime.
After the Taliban attack in Afghanistan and the capture of Kabul on August 15, there was a sudden atmosphere of chaos at the airport.
Thousands of Afghan citizens reached the airport to leave the country. Not only this, some people hang on the side of the American C-17 military cargo jet, after which they died due to fall.
Last week, an Islamic State suicide attack on the airport gate killed 169 Afghan civilians, including 13 US military personnel.
