Video: Hundreds Of People Are Eager To Board The Plane-A Desperate Scene At Kabul Airport.
Afghanistan-Taliban crisis: A parked airport is surrounded by crowds, pushing and struggling to enter the cabin from the only staircase connected to the front door.
A video of hundreds of Afghans trying to board a plane and leave the country during the Taliban’s comeback could become the last desperate sight of this war-torn country.
An airplane parked at Kabul Airport was surrounded by a sea of people, pushing from the only staircase connected to the front door, struggling to enter the cabin. I also saw many people walking on the runway and did not try to find the plane to board, which indicates that they may have given up hope of leaving.
The image of Kabul Airport looks more like a chaotic bus station than an airport. The runways in some areas were surrounded by barbed wire. Behind the runways, a row of Afghans stared at the few US troops guarding the airport.
This morning, the US military at the airport shot into the air to disperse the crowd. “I am very scared here. They fired a lot of shots in the air,” a witness told the news agencies.

After Afghan President Ashraf Ghani fled Afghanistan and admitted that terrorists had won the 20-year war, the Taliban took control of Afghanistan.
The government collapsed at an alarming rate. Terrorists occupied the presidential palace on Sunday night, causing fear and panic in the capital, Kabul.
On Sunday, terrorists surrounded Kabul, Ghani fled, and the Taliban won a military victory for all the people. The city fell into their hands in just 10 days. Ghani said in a statement on Facebook: “The Taliban have won the victory with their sword and weapon judgment and are now responsible for the honor, property and self-protection of their compatriots.”
The Afghan government forces collapsed without U.S. support. After the September 11 attack, the U.S. forces invaded and overthrown the Taliban in 2001 to support Al Qaeda.
