Afghanistan faces a 'impossible' race against time to escape from Kabul
Written by news2in

Kabul: Tens of thousands of Afghans are racing Sundays to escape from their country when the United States warns a security threat at Kabul’s chaotic airport and the European Union says it is “impossible” to evacuate everyone who is at risk of the Taliban.
Within a week since the hardline Islamic guerrillas took power in Afghanistan, the Taliban had sworn a softer version of their brutal rules from 1996-2001, and took steps to form a government.
But fearful Afghans continued to try and escape, deepen a tragedy at Kabul Airport where the United States and its allies could not overcome a large number of people who tried to get evacuation flights.
Sky News Britain on Saturday Aired Footage at least three bodies covered in white tarps outside the airport.
It’s not clear how they die.
Ramsay’s Sky Stuart Reporter, who is at the airport, called death “unavoidable” and said the “destroyed” people, while others were “dehydrated and fear”.
The recording is the latest picture of despair that is completely, after the baby’s video is lifted on the wall at the airport and horror scenes of people who depend on the plane departing.
The family hopes for the crowded miracle between the barbed wire that surrounds unofficial land there is no human being separating the Taliban from US forces.
The road to the airport chokes traffic.
President Joe Biden has described the situation as “one of the biggest airlifts, the most difficult in history”.
It’s more complicated on Saturday when the US government warns its citizens to stay away from the airport.
There was no special reason given, but a White House officials later said Biden had been identified about the threat of “against terrorism”, including the group of Islamic countries.
The United States, which has thousands of troops that seeks to secure the airport, has set deadlines to complete evacuation on August 31.
But there are up to 15,000 Americans and 50,000 to 60,000 Afghan allies that need to be evacuated, according to Biden Administration.
There are countless, including journalists, who are afraid of repression under the Taliban and also try to escape.
“We know that we fought against time and space,” Pentagon spokesman John Kirby conceded, while others gave a gloomy assessment.
“They want to evacuate 60,000 people between now and later this month.
This is mathematically impossible,” the Head of the European Union Foreign Policy Josep Borrell told AFP.
Borrell added that “we have complained” to America that their airport security is too tight and inhibits efforts by Afghans who work in Europe to enter.
Biden said the deadline could be extended to airlift.
Borrell said that as far as he knew that decisions had not been made.
On Saturday, the Pentagon said 17,000 people had been taken out since the operation began on August 14, including 2,500 Americans.
Thousands have gone away with other foreign military flights.
The Taliban has been public satisfied to allow the US military to monitor airlift, while focusing on how they will run the country so foreign troops go.
The Taliban Co-Founder Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar flew to Kabul on Saturday, and officials said they mapped “inclusive government”.
A senior Taliban official told AFP that Baradar would meet with Jihad leaders, elders and politicians in the coming days.
The meeting in Kabul, including the leader of the Haqqani network, a terrorist organization designated by the US with a million dollar gifts on his leadership.
The Taliban swept Kabul last week, ended two decades of war, stunning the world when government forces surrendered to the Masse and raised questions about Washington’s ability to support his allies.
Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who in 2001 will fight in Afghanistan beside the United States, on Saturday criticized US motives for withdrawal as “imbecilic”.
“Afghan neglect and tragic, dangerous, unnecessary people, not in their interests and not in us,” Blair wrote in a broad article.
“We don’t need to do it.
We chose to do it.
