General Frank McKenzie announced that the last U.S. military flight departed Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul shortly after midnight on August 31st ― the Biden administration’s deadline for withdrawal.

Over 116,000 people have been evacuated by the U.S. and its allies in the last two weeks, although hundreds of American civilians remain in Afghanistan, along with thousands of at-risk Afghan allies.

President Joe Biden released a statement in which he praised the “unmatched courage, professionalism, and resolve” of the U.S. military in executing the evacuation, which more than resulted in over 116,000 people evacuated since August 14th by the U.S. and coalition partners, including about 6,000 Americans.
