New urgency to airlift after Kabul blasts kill more than 100

Afghan officials warned that the toll could rise, with morgues stretched to capacity
Evacuation flights from Afghanistan resumed with new urgency on Friday, a day after two suicide bombings targeted the thousands of people . The U.S. warned more attacks could come ahead of next week’s end to America’s longest war. As the call to prayer echoed through Kabul along with the roar of departing planes, the anxious crowds outside the city’s airport appeared as large as ever. They are acutely aware that the window is closing to board a flight before the airlift ends and Western troops withdraw. Thursday’s bombings near the airport killed at least 95 Afghans and 13 U.S. troops, Afghan and U.S. officials said, in the deadliest day for American forces in Afghanistan since August 2011.More Related News
