been holding up the papers saying, i work with the americans, i'm going into these are my papers, let me through the americans seeing me helpless, saying go to another gate. and we just see the desperation. they mean to think that this explosion happened today. and i and yeah, i seen the same, those same people with the same place just a few days ago and had they were and it's very hard to tell what will happen next when we strike you. i'm sitting here now i can hear slice in the i can hear plain, but how many who are and how many more people to be able to actuate with this chief said line s. and there is a picture that's behind me, a big photograph behind me. and this, this is a picture of people on a plane being taken out of afghanistan and taking to canada. will see this in just a moment. so you can see how uncomfortable that journey has been. and you made that

journey with your family. can you speak us to for briefly that process of leaving your country? how fast you had to do it and what you had to do. thank you. the my case in my evacuation from up on it was before the fell down off coupled to the town. it was very fast. i started on 299, 9 of july and ended by the end of august my date of august. and i wanted to kind of where they get everything was very smart, very manageable. everything was on time. and the emails the forms every day can very soon and very but after the the finished goals, when the cold fell down to the carnival on, i had some colleagues and friends that applied to the same to the same program that

i came here on. based on that, d, explain it to me very difficult. this is, it takes days that they receive one a me sometimes it didn't receive a reply from me from there. but for us it was easy. they took us to a compound, it took us to secure, come another compound for a tower and all the the route, the places or the cars that they use for our carrying from other one place to another place. they use arm cars. and one day when they took us to the to the airport, they also use the arm car when there was a big airplane and they charge started for us. the airplane had the capacity for our 3 to 4 passengers 100 passenger. but we were

150 passenger. you wouldn't you? what was your wife annual 3 children? what did that feel like? because it gives us a sense of we, we keep seeing so many people 100 how people trying to leave. what did that feel like as you were leaving on that time? it was okay, but when i arrived here and look at the pictures in the use in the at the airport a couple of the report. i sometimes got that we are not there. how like, how i come to my children to the airport? not because when we, when i was in call, i told my wife one we will walk into, we had a walk on the street to know what children were with us. and i told her she of the civil or how, who should i pick 1st with children that i see law are no more. yeah. it was difficult for me and i thought that we live. i bless others you've been

left behind. at the moment. i want to go to camille. i would love to have a listen to my li, her huck. she's very critical of 50 x, a process from afghanistan. have a listen to her comment that she sent was a little bit earlier, and then come immediately of the back of it with your own device administration has a moral and ethical responsibility to make sure that any of us citizens, their families and their allies, and to leave cobble, are able to leave the city safely and quickly. we've been working around the clock with our clients and their families to make sure that they're able to get inside the airport safely. and once inside that they're able to find a flight to leave the city. the august 31st deadline that the administration has said that they will take to is causing a lot of desperation and station and the deadline needs to be extended. if not everybody who needs to get out is able to get out before then

i think that's exactly right. my 1st reaction that i want to say is the august 31st deadline that the by didn't administration has agreed to is not our deadline. we didn't agree to that we, you know, we've been fighting since the since april, since the withdrawal announcement to make sure that we, that the u. s. have activate our allies with the tree. that the, the u. s. evacuate or allies as they were withdrawn the sheets that we withdraw with dignity and bring those who helped us to safety along with our troops. and when that didn't happen, we started working on the civilian side to try to get as many people as possible when people fell and the government guy to stan chow government to control we, we just up those efforts has been incredible to watch civilians coming together to get charter flights to get manifest to get as many, you know, military working with civilian issues. they, ex, military, working with civilians to get them onto flight through the,

through the air for gates and onto planes. and we're not going to stop. we're going to, we're not going to stop pushing the u. s. government to continue to ensure that all of our allies and all of the honorable afghans who are now still the in country are brought to safety. we're not going to stop pushing for the deadline to be push back for the number of individuals to continue to grow that our vacuum rated. and we're just going to keep looking for new ways to get as many people out of the country as possible. because that's a commitment that we made and that's a commitment that we intend to honor. and we also intend to remind the us government that that's what we expect that as well. charlotte, there's some conversation online. i'm going to share it with you dara. off on you, she thank you for being part of this discussion. so these are off on youtube what, what will be the future of afghanistan onto the taliban? that is a huge question. right? but then i'm wondering about since august the 15th, when the taliban moved into a pool, what life has change and what that change has been like earlier we sport to media.

and he gave us a sense of how life had changed. listened to the dear. and then give us your tape again, it's going to be on port 35000000 people living in this country. and after this sudden, an unpredictable change of power, we are about to face as humanitarian crises. people do not have jobs. they are running out of money, the banks are closed and the price of food is rising every day. my message, the world is please don't abandon afghans at this hour of need. the african people really need you and your support and african lies do matter. yeah, i totally agree with that. i'd say to the weston media and the rest of the world. the story see me that what the majority about the afghans being the economy and

what does this mean? where do we get money from the world bank, the i'm, if you way has frozen, there was a bank funds. irene, economically be using money leverage against the telephone to say play will respect human rights. well, you don't get anything. and the problem is that, well, they might be doing that and it might be effective, try to manipulate the telephone and to doing what they want. the people that are getting people on the ground. and i mean, i can say from living here and having, being here on and off for the last few years that life had a very how dos reopening. seeing women on the streets, ministry 3 stuffing. but the economy is a big problem. points. i mean, trying to get money out, you can argue that $400.00 and no one really knows how the going to pay government

salaries. that type of thing. it's a lot of questions and very much there's a lot of questions about when will be in special community who were supporting the previous administration, paying all the teachers and the nurses and hospitals. when they come back to the policy, would they be satisfied with the taliban? enough to start giving them money and aid and pay for these people. and then i've got some questions here on youtube for you. i hope you won't mind answering them. does the on the says, in reality, what percentage of people, enough galveston are actually glad that the taliban is a rule again. so honestly, i traveled in 33 province silver and a son. from what? 2021. pro mar 2000 and no, i mean from february 2011 to march 2021. i visit all the progress of

you know, are people that they want the taller ones given the country. but the people that he was leaving under the control of when he got them and they didn't want it, most of them to didn't want it nice survey. it needs of research to ask people what percentage of people want the top bunk of the country. but from what i understand few days ago, i had a number of interviews, a different problem, to look at the situation. and i was, i wrote an article about that they are optimistic about the future. but at the same time, during treating that, the things that they are saying in their words will not be in an action. they said with respect to human art, with respect one member, we respect the freedom of speech and media. but i heard number of

video grew up, our journalists were beaten by thought of on incoming and past few days and also the destruction for what was the working and government offices. they said you should be at home. so the time that we set up a good day that we work on our leader on or on, on our president, introduce our president to the new government to introduce the new government. these are the breaking into programming to take your life to the pentagon briefing that's being led by hank taylor, the deputy director of joint off of operations is giving me an update on the situation in afghanistan. back over to mr. kirby don't have a lot of additional detail to offer you about the tack yesterday at the abbey gate . but i can confirm for you that we do not believe that there was a 2nd explosion at or near the baron hotel. and it was one

suicide bomber. we're not sure how that report report. busy was provided incorrect, but we do know it's not any surprise that in the confusion of very dynamic events like this can cause information. sometimes to be misreported or garbled. we felt it was important to correct the record with y'all hear you now seeing that we've updated our casualty list to include a 13th service member killed in action. our thoughts and prayers continue to go out to the families and to the teammates that we have lost. this is a devastating time for these goals. tar family's a title. her no one wants to hold, but we absolutely hold in the utmost respect. i can also report that to flight landed at ramstein today,

carrying our warned wounded personnel from the attack. these personnel had been transferred to long, still regional medical center and receiving care incapable commanders on the ground continue to assess the risk. and the dynamic situation there has they have been since the beginning for protection remains paramount. with the continued threat. we've continued the evacuation mission yesterday as you saw, as you reported last night. and i'll give you an update of how things have gone the last 24 hours. yesterday. 35 u. s. military aircraft 29, c 17 and 6. c. one thirty's, departed with approximately 8500 personnel. combined with $54.00 coalition aircraft departures an additional $4000.00 personnel left cable for various intermediate staging bases. $89.00 flights total yesterday out of

cable, totaling approximately $12500.00 evacuees now safely out of afghanistan in a 24 hour period. in the past 24 hours more than $300.00 american citizens were evacuated from afghanistan, bringing our updated total to approximately $5100.00. we continue to maximize our efficiency, incense, us and coalition forces began the evacuation. approximately 111000 evacuees have departed safely. the state department counselor officers continue to screen and process people arriving at the gate around couple some gates had been closed that we reported, but american citizens s i. v. applicants and vulnerable afghans who have the designated and proper credentials will continue to be process for departure from the airfield. there are still approximately 5400 individuals on the airport. as of

this report, a waiting for flights out of afghanistan, we have the ability to include evacuation on u. s. military air, air lift out of afghanistan until the very end. the department of defense has the continued responsibility to support the state department in the ongoing movement evacuees through our intimate intermediate staging basis and safe havens. all. busy the way to the united states in the coming days and weeks on that topic here is a quick update on the military installations in our safe havens and staging bases and send com. and you and you. com that are helping transition all these flights. centcom locations, including our data base steadily receive process and transfer passengers to follow on locations in europe and the united states. today you com will receive about 900

flights and approximately 1900 or in approximately 5000 passengers in germany, italy and spain, including the naval station, rhoda. in turn, 6 flights will transport about 3300 people from europe to the united states. i cannot say enough how important that the contribution of our allies in our partners has been in this massive global operation. additionally, more evacuees continue to arrive stateside and are moving to designated installations throughout north come the north. come, commanding general general van herc, we'll provide a more focused briefing on this extensive effort in his brief later today. in conclusion, i'll reiterate what general mckenzie said yesterday. there are more than 5000 u. s. service members in harm's way, saving as many people as they can. it's

a noble mission. we have seen 1st hand how dangerous that mission is, but isis will not deter us from accomplishing this mission. we appreciate your thoughts and prayers for all of our service members who are carrying on this mission today. above all, we remain focused on evacuating american citizens and other personnel designated by the department to state safeguarding the lives of those whom we are providing assistance in keeping american troops safe. thank you. just have one of the thing to add and it's a good segue for me with the general ended with today. the department of defense can announce that it is authorized marine corps base quantico, virginia for picket virginia. and holman air force base new mexico to provide

additional support to the us mission to evacuate afghans, special immigrant visa applicants, their families, and other at risk individuals. these installations joined fort lee, fort mccoy, for bliss and joint base, mcguire dixon, providing the support the defense department will continue to support the state department in providing temporary housing, sustainment, and support inside the united states for a capacity of up to $50000.00 afghans, special immigrant visa applicants, their families, and other at risk individuals, us northern command will coordinate the details of all this with the state department, the department of homeland security. and of course, the department of health and human services as necessary. and it'll be providing provided under presidential drawdown authority to the maximum extent possible, with additional support being provided on a reimbursable basis. and as general taylor let you know, we have general van heard the commander of us northern command coming into the briefing room with you later this afternoon. he'll be able to provide

a lot more context on that. that will take questions leader probably for the, for the general. the president has said he wants to basically get back at isis. how difficult will it be for the us military to do that type of operation, considering the lower number of troops and the difficulty in getting intelligence on the ground. and then i don't know if this is huge, or can you just talk about the number of people that will be getting process over the next several days? is that number going to gradually go down? do you have a number of people you think you're going to, or what's your full park estimate right on the 1st question on the, our capabilities and abilities to protect ourselves or to also to conduct the strikes. as you said, as i've said along, we have resources with the send come commander with the commanders on the ground

and the capabilities to allow us to execute any type of those operations as those are required to do. so again, we're, we're still planning on ending this mission at the end of the month. and as i said the other day, as we get closer and we are getting closer, you're going to see us begin to make those muscle movement to pull out our troops and some of our equipment as appropriate with any retro grade. what we want to do is preserve as much capability for as long as we can both in terms of the security footprint. but also in terms of the ability, as the general alluded in his opening statement to moving out a vacuum, ease lives are still the priority and the lives of our troops. and of course, the lives of the viet vacuum ease and try to continue to get as many out as

possible. so there will be a balance over the next few days as we continue to process through that transition as we continue to as what we call retro grade. and i can't give you a specific number on any given day. but i think you'll see us a just as necessary to make sure that we're achieving that proper balance, but we will be able to fly out evacuation right up until the last moment. that's going to be the goal. and if i may, didn't ask this, but i want to take the opportunity to convey to all of you that as we did before, when we, we can read retro great, a withdrawal back in april we were very judicious about the detail we were putting out and i'm just want to level set with all of you that you are going to see us become more judicious now, going forward. as we get closer to the end of the month about what information we're giving you in terms of how many troops on the ground,

i would not expect us to be giving you that number out in going forward and what the capabilities are and where they are. and what they're doing, we're going to be very, very mindful of the operational security element of this. and i think yesterday is a stark grim reminder of why that's important going forward. i know that's not what you asked, but i wanted to take an opportunity to get that out there. jeff, sean, how can you say one such certainty and how content mackenzie say with such certainty that the taliban were not involved in the suicide bombing? i understand that you're relying on them for protection around the airport, but are you ruling out them being involved because you're so dependent on the television right now? actually i didn't hear general mckenzie put it that way. and in fact, i think in one of the questions he got, and i think it was addresses, you know, he said was there a failure in the general said, of course there was a failure somewhere obviously. and he even alluded to the fact that it could have been at a taliban checkpoint. so i don't, we,

we've not been certain about that at all to be an investigation. we'll try to learn as much as we can about what happened. and i really don't want to get ahead of that process. and in terms of isis k, how many isis came prisoners were left at bob graham and are believe to have been released from the prison there. and why weren't they removed for the us pulled out to someplace like get well, i don't know the exact number. clearly it's in the thousands when you, when you, when you consider both prisoners because both of them were taken over by the taliban and emptied. but i couldn't give you a precise figure. and as for m d, i remember, i mean, we were turning things over to ask in national security forces that was part of the retro great process with the turnover these responsibilities. and so they did have responsibility for those prisons and the bases at which those prisoners were located. and of course, as the taliban advanced, we didn't see the level of resistance by the afghans to hold some territory,

some bases. and unfortunately, those were the basis that the afghans didn't whole, but all of those responsibilities were turned over in accordance with the retrograde plan. back from april, injuries for the general general mackenzie talked about wanting to talk to the taliban about pushing the perimeter back as one of the through ways to avoid another incident. has that happened? i mean, you can see by how much, but it's significantly been pushed back. and what are you seeing in terms of flow to get it less people being allowed in a rush of people which could lead to similar to what you've seen today. so what i can report as my discussion with the commanders they are on the ground is that multiple activities have taken place to increase the force protection specifically in communicate.
