The explosions outside Kabul airport represent “an absolutely despicable attack,” he said in Berlin Angela Merkel. “The events of this afternoon show that the risk is immense and that the situation is very, very tense to get people out of the country,” added Merkel.
The British premier Boris Johnson, after a meeting of the Cobra emergency committee, he assured that the evacuation will continue as planned. Even the French president Emmanuel Macron, while acknowledging that the next few hours will be “extremely risky”, he guaranteed that the evacuations will continue until the 31st.
Other countries, such as Canada and Germany, have already left Afghanistan. Tomorrow the Italian airlift will also end with the departure of the last C-130 from Kabul.
