The White House said Tuesday morning that at least 12,700 people had been evacuated by 37 US military flights and 8,900 had been evacuated by coalition flights over the past 24 hours. The Pentagon added that there are"a little bit above 5,000" people at the airport in Kabul waiting to board flights, which are now leaving about every 45 minutes.
Just speechless about these 'news channels' lie after lie after lie, and you intelligent people eat it up
Who can believe them anymore covering their asses.
That’s not what other channels say !!!
How. Many. Americans.
Fake news 🤷♂️
Still wondering why so many Americans not there for critical purposes wouldn't have left when it was initially announced we were leaving.
Vaccinate them all! Then add the numbers to ours! 🔥🔥🔥😂
CNNPolitics Wait, what? I thought CNN was suggesting hardly anyone was getting out and that this was a total disaster.
All lies, I have been with the same documents for 9 days, I am waiting for the embassy email, unfortunately I have not called yet
American Imperialism documented by award winning Journalist/filmmaker johnpilger.
This process should not be about how 'lucky'you are to get out. You made it through the gauntlet. The USA made a promise to these people so hoping and wishing they are getting out doesn't cut it. The USA is failing the remaining folks.
I’m unable to work because of my health issues. All I ask if that you read my story. If you cannot give, please share/rt. Honestly anything helps, even a simple prayer. God bless you ♥️.
Doesn’t sound like a disaster to me
US & Allied forces from 36 nations trained the AfghanArmy for 20 years & spent 2.4$ trillion to fight the Taliban. Stop distributing 'Special Immigrant Visas' to Afghan Interpreters. Let these afghan soldiers defend their country. Leave it for them to fight their destiny.
We all Afghan interpreters don’t understand who are these evacuees, obviously they were not those people who worked with US government so whom the US evacuated because we are all left behind.
Nice try. If they had done it right in the first place, this 'evacuation' wouldn't have been necessary.
Amazing .
And thirty four million more held hostage...
Please rise my message to the world, I'm habib noori from Afghanistan, presidential and Ministry award holder, its been 5 day's I'm waiting in front of HKIA i don't have chance to get in to the airport kindly help me my life is in danger I'm not safe i want to get out of Afg
US media run 'human interest' stories of desperate Afghan employees of the US occupation - whose plight is real. Yet for that occupation's 20yrs US media rarely if ever covered the many desperate Afghan people suffering US bombs, drones, troops. Is that what makes a 'free press'?
Bullsh't.
CNN: America's lowest rated news source bc they won't report any real freakin' news.
Well as an American, mother/grandmother, I wanted us to leave Afganistan!!! However it is a cluster f..k.... From a reengineering point of view , my expertise, this withdrawal was a failure!!... Forget politics, when you want to change something it needs to be methodical...
👍👍👍👍👍
Gained momentum?
How many American citizens are on those flights?
imagine cnn reporting if this mess was under Trump?
Hmmmm a president doing his job by adapting to a changing situation.
Grant KSAnimalRescue landing permission for its privately funded humanitarian relief flight
Gained momentum, YAY!! But what of the $85B in advanced weaponry he gave to the Taliban? Any concerns there, or all good?
Wouldn’t that be the soldiers getting the hell out of dodge. Luckily according to CNN no Americans were left behind and the Taliban is going to open up spas for all the women
Glorious success. Tractor production at ten year high.
One minute Biden's doing everything wrong - the next minute the story changes. Where's a legit news source besides CNN. They always have an agenda and just feed that rather than giving the actual truthful story - so unreliable
😓😓😓😓
😓😓😓
So long, Afghan sunset ... Armen
How about a story if what it's like to get to the airport?
