In pictures: The bloody aftermath of airport attacks
Kabul is reeling from two explosions at the city's airport on Thursday, which killed some 90 people, including 13 US military personnel.
At least 150 people were also wounded in the attacks, which the Islamic State group says it carried out.
Taliban fighters have been guarding the scene, which is strewn with discarded clothing and bags.
And all this carnage is BEFORE the free bodyguard services provided by the Allied forces leave. Imagine what will happen AFTER they leave?
ReplyDeleteBut now everybody must go home, they have tried their best to help for 20 years. So Sayonara Kabul. Good Luck.
Note: 5000 yo Bullyland's Kabul Embassy seems to be open as usual and their Foreign Ministry have nice things to say about Taliban just two days ago. So from Sept 1 onwards try knocking on their door.

SCMP: A spokesman for the Political Office of the Taliban in Qatari capital Doha tweeted on August 24 that the Taliban delegation met with Chinese ambassador and others in Kabul. Do you have more information on that?
Wang Wenbin: China and the Afghan Taliban have smooth and effective communication and consultation. Kabul is naturally an important platform and channel for the two sides to discuss various important matters.
I want to stress that China's policy toward Afghanistan is consistent and clear. We always respect the sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of Afghanistan, follow the principle of non-interference in Afghanistan's internal affairs and adhere to a friendly policy toward the entire Afghan people. China respects the Afghan people's independent choice of their own future, supports the implementation of the "Afghan-led and Afghan-owned" principle, and stands ready to continue to develop good-neighborliness, friendship and cooperation with Afghanistan and play a constructive role in Afghanistan's peace and reconstruction.

"They discussed the security of the Chinese embassy and diplomats, the current situation in Afghanistan, bilateral relations and China's humanitarian assistance," Sputnik reported.
Even as chaos unfurled in Afghanistan's capital, Kabul, after the country fell to Talibani terrorists, China has kept its embassy open.
