104 more Turkish nationals evacuated from Afghan capital

ANKARA, AUG 21: As many as 104 more Turkish nationals were flown out from Afghanistan’s capital in a C-130 transport aircraft of the Turkish Air Force on Saturday.

Efforts to evacuate Turkish citizens from the war-torn country continue at the Hamid Karzai International Airport, and the citizens were rescued by Turkish security forces from areas in central Kabul.

Late Friday, a Turkish Armed Forces airplane carrying over 100 Turkish citizens left Kabul.

The unexpected power grab by the Taliban has triggered a rush to flee Afghanistan, including civilians who assisted foreign soldiers or groups and now fear retribution.
