🚨Afghanistan Thread:
So much talk from people who never stepped foot in Afghanistan, have no idea what they are talking about, or just lying.
Who never trained their forces.
Who never engaged in talks with village Elders.
I've done *all* of this.
The Taliban now has javelin missiles as well as the OS for Strykers and other military vehicles. “Everyone is wondering what the black market is going to have in Iran,” a US official told me.
“An F-15 flight simulator was also left in Bagram, the Taliban has that now.”
Unbelievable scenes from Hamid Karzai International Airport. What looks to be hundreds of people on the runway and in the general area. Apache seen clearing the runway for an incoming aircraft.
An ACARS message just sent to a USAF C-17 Globemaster en route to #Afghanistan seems to suggest that if the plane returns with anything other than the crew and cargo they will be turned away from Al Udeid airbase in #Qatar and sent to #Kuwait. Is Qatar refusing refugee flights?
Taliban started door to door search looking for govt officials, former police & security forces members & those who worked for foreign countries NGOs or infrastructures in Afghanistan.
At least 3 journalists' houses were searched in the last hour.
Kabul is now becoming deadly..
US official (via Al-Arabiya):
Our forces were forced to shoot at Kabul airport to prevent crowds from entering military planes
