Following the ill-coordinated, messy US withdrawal from Afghanistan, Kabul has fallen into the hands of the Taliban at astonishing speed. The entire world is watching the change of flag from black, red and green of Afghanistan to the white with black Shahadah of the Taliban.
The collapse of the Ashraf Ghani-led Afghan government was so swift that it gave no time to the tens of foreign embassies to evacuate their diplomats and other staff. Even more worrisome is the fate of those Afghan people who have worked for the United States administration since the US-led forces launched the Afghanistan War in 2001.
