The White House is still unable to say how many Americans remain stranded in Afghanistan, while appearing to describe the situation on the ground in Kabul as more dire than senior administration officials have acknowledged in recent days
The White House on Friday was still unable to say how many Americans remained stranded in Afghanistan, while appearing to describe the situation on the ground in Kabul as more dire than senior administration officials have acknowledged in recent days.
Addressing the ongoing U.S. evacuation mission out of the international airport in Kabul, Bedingfield’s remarks seemingly included several caveats, and she declined to guarantee that all Americans and Afghan allies would be transported safely out of the country. President Joe Biden told ABC News in an interview Wednesday he would maintain the U.S. military presence in Afghanistan beyond the end of the month — his self-imposed withdrawal deadline — if evacuation operations were not yet completed.
Over the last 24 hours, 11 charter flights also departed the airport carrying an unspecified number of people, according to the White House. The U.S. military has evacuated roughly 14,000 people from Afghanistan since the end of July and roughly 9,000 people since Aug. 14.
