Kabul: A spokesman for the United States (US) Department of State has said that the evacuation of US staff from its embassy in Kabul is now complete.
“We can confirm that the safe evacuation of all Embassy personnel is now complete. All Embassy personnel are located on the premises of Hamid Karzai International Airport, whose perimeter is secured by the US Military,” Ned Price wrote in a statement.
Earlier, a US official told the Reuters news agency that most Western diplomats have safely evacuated from Afghanistan’s capital.
“I can safely say the majority of Western diplomatic staff is out of Kabul now,” the unnamed official said.
Helicopters have been carrying diplomats from the embassy district in Kabul to the airport since Sunday, when the Taliban entered the city.
