KABUL – Chaos in Afghanistan. Despite the assurances of the Taliban, who have captured Kabul and taken control of the presidential palace by announcing the rebirth of the Islamic Emirate and guaranteeing that “citizens’ lives will not be at risk”, people are fleeing the country.

Today the capital’s airport was literally stormed. On social networks, in particular on Twitter, numerous videos have appeared showing people running on the airport runways and trying to board flights, clinging to trolleys, engines. Someone crashes as the plane gains altitude.

Chilling scenes, such as those posted by Muslim Shirzad, teacher and former TV presenter of Tolonews, an Afghan broadcaster. Seven dead were counted yesterday. →
