Stars and Stripes | Military halts Afghanistan deployments, will extend some troops there amid coronavirus concerns
The U.S.-led NATO mission in Afghanistan has stopped deploying troops to the country and has placed about 1,500 newly arrived service members and civilians into quarantine to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, military officials said Thursday.
The new measures mean some troops already in Afghanistan will have their deployments extended, a NATO Resolute Support statement said. |
