Multiple rockets fired from a car landed near the Kabul airport on 30 August. The process of withdrawing the 5,000 United States military personnel deployed to Kabul's airport for the evacuation of Americans and Afghan allies is under way in the face of "very real" threats of additional attacks such as the one two days ago that left some 200 people dead, the Pentagon said 28 August. More than 117,000 people have departed from the Kabul airport since the "massive military, diplomatic, security and humanitarian undertaking" began following the fall of the capital under Taliban's rule on 15 August.

WASHINGTON, 11 DIC - Gli Stati Uniti hanno un "piano valido per tutto il mondo" che prevede la "distruzione di tutti i documenti classificati conservati in un'ambasciata in caso di evacuazione". Lo ha detto il segretario di Stato Antony Blinken in un'audizione al Congresso sul caotico ritiro dall'Afghanistan ad agosto del 2012. "Il protocollo è stato applicato anche in quel caso e tutte le carte segrete sono state distrutte il 14 agosto, il giorno prima della caduta di Kabul", ha spiegato Blinken.
