We will continue to hunt down, says the U.S. President
U.S. President Joe Biden said that a retaliatory group's affiliate in Afghanistan would not be his “last” response to the group for carrying out a near the Kabul airport. Mr. Biden said in a statement on August 28, 2021, that he discussed the strike with top military commanders, who briefed him on the ongoing evacuation of Afghans and U.S. citizens from the airport, which is set to wind down on Tuesday. The U.S. President said commanders told him that another attack “is highly likely in the next 24-36 hours.” Two IS members were killed and another was wounded in the drone strike early Saturday in eastern Afghanistan.More Related News
