11:20 pm
and respond to this storm. we have been closely monitored on real progress and making the necessary preparations. fortunately is no longer hurricane has been downgraded to tropical storm. and we are taking it seriously though, because the size and the storm surge and the rainfall is producing. and it's also, it's also impacting an area of the country as already experienced heavy rainfall over the past several days. and while new englanders are used to dealing with some tough weather, the storm has potential for widespread consequences across the region with significant flooding power outages that could affect hundreds of thousands of people. and so we're doing everything we can now to help those states prepare, respond and recover. i can't think of any one bedroom lead this operation and then and chris, well

11:24 pm
a vital part of emergency preparedness this year for the remainder this. now let me turn to i can stay. i've continued to make progress, since i've spoke to you on friday. we have moved thousands of people each day by u. s. military aircraft and civilian charter flights a little over 30 hours in a little over 30 hours this weekend. we've evacuated an extraordinary number of people, as i will detail in a minute about 11000 individuals. that number will change day to day as the air and ground operations are couple very. our 1st priority and couple is getting american citizens out of the country as quickly in as safely as possible. my direction, the state department continues to reach out to the remaining americans. we have identified by phone, email, and other means to ascertain there were about their plans are executed and planned to move groups of these americans to safety and to safely and effectively move them
11:25 pm
to the airport camp out for security reasons. i'm not going to go into the details of what these plans entail, but i will say again today that i've said before, any american wants to get home, we'll get home. we've also been evacuating the citizens of our nato allies and our partners, including their diplomats, the embassy staff who remained in that candidate and to get them back to their homes as well. and as we do this, we're also working to move our african allies who stood with us side by side and other loanable f and such as women leaders and journalists out of the country. as of the sporty we have evacuated nearly 28000 people since august, the 14th. and both us and coalition aircraft including civilian charters, bringing the total number of people who evacuated since july to approximately $33000.00 persons. 124 hour period this weekend, 23
11:26 pm
u. s. military flights, including 14 see 17th 9 see 130 flights left couple carrying 3900 passengers. we should no reason why this temple will not be kept up during the same period are military facilities over $35.00 charter flights carrying an additional $4000.00 evacuation to other countries that are taking their, taking them out. altogether we lifted approximately $11000.00 people out of a couple and less than 36 hours. it's an incredible operation. let me be clear. the evacuation of thousands of people from campbell is going to be hard and painful . no matter when it started, when we began. would have been true if we had started a month ago or a month from now. there is no way to evacuate this. many people about pain and loss of heartbreaking images. you see a television. it's just a fact. my heart vague for those things, those people you see, we are approving,
11:27 pm
we can move those thousands of people a day out of couple. we're bringing our citizens, nato allies, afghani, who, and help have factors helped us in the war effort. we have a long way to go and a lot could still go wrong, but to move out 30000 people and just over week, as a great testament to the men and women on the ground and couple on arm services. it also reflects a tireless diplomatic effort, order to keep a steady flow planes taking our from cabal and maximize our vacuum capacity. we have quickly stood up an unprecedented global effort and established a series of processing stations in 3rd countries. in short, flying them directly to the country, reclined to these processing stations. we're working with more than 2 dozen countries across 4 continents. i've secured agreements,
11:28 pm
we secured agreements with gulf sent me across the gulf in central asian and in europe including processing centers and cutter, germany, kuwait, spain, and elsewhere allows us to sort and process these vacuous, this transit, these transit centers provide a safe place for the s i v applicants and other vulnerable afghans and their families to complete their paperwork. while we conduct security screenings and background checks before they continue on to the final destination in the united states or in another country. one of our nato allies as well. and so, from asia to africa, from europe to western western hemisphere, nations are making generous offer support resettlement efforts. i've been a personal contact with the leaders in many countries, including cutter, germany, spain, at lee, u, a, and others. they're making vital contributions to thank them for their support and to discuss how we can continue to coordinate or represent the dentist and moving
11:29 pm
forward is the reason why continue on contact. and i want to again, thank all of our part for the continue continuing to stand together. we've also activated the 1st stage what's referred to as the civil reserve air fleet. help with armor movement of evacuation from these transit centers or military aircraft and others we'll get them to the centers. but then we're going to get to civil reserve sleep. it's a program is designed. it was designed in the wake of the berlin airlift after world war 2, to use commercial aircraft, to augment or lift capacity is the voluntary program for our commercial airlines. and we're grateful for those airlines. the u. s. carriers are supporting this. this effort will only use 3 or 4 planes from each of the major carriers, vast speech of aircraft. so there should be no effect or a minimal effect on commercial air travel. and we'll staying close coordination
11:30 pm
with our partners to mitigate any of these civil reserved flights. will be helping facilitate the safe movement of people from staging locations in transit centers like cutter and germany to the united states or to a 3rd country. none of them will be landing a couple. now the american aircraft party, this will not be going to any country but united states. as this effort on falls, i want to be clear about 3 things. one plays taking from campbell or not flying directly to united states. they're landing a u. s. military basis in transit centers around the world. number 2, at these sites where they're landed, we are conducting a thorough se scrutiny security screening for everyone who is not a us citizen, or a lawful permanent residence. anyone arriving in the united states under gun background check. number 31 screened and cleared. we will welcome these afghans who
