The disaster in Afghanistan caused by President Joe Biden just got worse
John Kirby, Pentagon Press Secretary, confirmed Thursday that an explosion occurred at Kabul Airport in Afghanistan. This was where thousands of people gathered to evacuate.
“We can confirm an explosion outside Kabul airport. Casualties are unclear at this time. We will provide additional details when we can,” he posted on Twitter.
Fox News reports that three American soldiers were hurt in the attack by Biden. Breitbart reports:
Fox News reported shortly after the news broke of the explosion that reports indicate at least three American military members were injured in the attack. The attack also reportedly prompted rapid gunfire exchanges which may be ongoing at press time.
Journalists from the region have begun sharing images allegedly of the immediate aftermath of the explosion. Local reports indicate the explosion occurred in a densely populated part of the airport, potentially causing a large number of casualties.
