Planes stuck in Mazar-i-Sharif
As the Taliban solidified its control, senior Republican Foreign Affairs Committee member Rep. Michael McCaul accused the group of holding Americans hostage.
“Six airplanes with American citizens on them, as I speak, also with these interpreters, and the Taliban is holding them hostage for demands right now,” McCaul told Fox News Sunday, adding that the U.S. State Department “has cleared these flights, and the Taliban will not let them leave the airport.”
Satellite photos of the airport in Mazar-i-Sharif, north of Kabul, show six passenger planes on the runway. U.S. government officials and a non-profit group told CBS News on Sunday that there were at least 19 American citizens and two green card holders among the roughly 1,000 people trying to leave on those planes.
Asked about the delay in getting the planes off the ground, the Taliban would only tell CBS News that, “they’re looking into it.”
With no U.S. presence in Afghanistan after the military withdrawal, the fate of all those desperate to leave, along with the country itself, was entirely in Taliban hands.

Well, we wonder what the hell Biden is waiting for…and that V.P., too!
They best be fed with decent food and drink and the usage of the bathroom there?
And the same goes for the taliban since they have the right to control the situation?
These morons are something else!

Not to mention the fear and terror, but the physical conditions of sitting in these planes must be horrendous! Food, water, sanitaion, air conditioning and circulation–probably all non-existent.
And this: On Wednesday Newsmax host Heather Childers played audio live on her show of a State Department voicemail from a line that had been disconnected. The phone number was listed to receive calls from Americans stranded in Afghanistan and attempting to return home to the United States. tate Department recorded voice: You’ve reached the Department of State number formerly used to provide general information on the Afghan special immigrant visa, or SIV program. This number is not currently operational. Please visit… (webstite)
