As the deadline for the withdrawal of U.S. troops on August 31 approaches, and many NATO countries have successively announced the completion of their withdrawal operations. On the 28th, a large number of Afghan people gathered near the capital Kabul International Airport, hoping to catch the last evacuation flight. The Taliban in Afghanistan sent more armed forces to steer the flow of people and traffic away from the airport and prevent more explosion risks against civilians.
Although a terrorist attack occurred near Kabul International Airport on the 26th, causing a large number of casualties, and the United States warned that the risk of an explosion attack still exists, as the evacuation of the United States and Western countries draws to a close, there are still a large number of people in the past two days. Afghan people took the risk and gathered near the airport to wait.
According to Al Jazeera, on the 28th, the Taliban sent more armed forces at the airport and its surrounding areas to prevent large-scale crowds from gathering and prevent possible risks of attacks. The Taliban also set up more checkpoints on the road to the airport.
A video released by the Associated Press showed that near the main entrance of Kabul International Airport, Taliban forces fired into the air in an attempt to control the flow of people near the airport. After the intensive gunfire sounded, the assembled crowd began to disperse and leave.
