Kabul airport chaos deepens after Taliban takeover with at least five people killed in crowds rushing to flee Afghanistan and reports of two falling to their death after clinging to a plane's wheels during taking off
As the Taliban insurgents declared Afghanistan's war over after taking the capital Kabul over without a fight, thousands of civilians have tried to flee the country, jamming the airport as they made a rush with their families and luggage.
In a video posted to social media, Taliban co-founder Abdul Ghani Baradar also announced his movement's victory. The United States ultimately failed to build a democratic government that was either capable of withstanding the Taliban or included the insurgents, despite spending billions of dollars and providing two decades of military support.Naeem said the Taliban wanted to have peaceful relations and was keen to develop several channels of communication it had already opened with foreign countries.
Thousands of police and other government security forces suddenly abandoned their posts, uniforms, and even weapons on Sunday night.
