Fox News
A pregnant California woman who was left behind in Afghanistan has safely escaped from the country, a Republican congressman said Friday.
That abuse included a kick to her stomach, Issa said last month during an appearance on Fox News.
Issa has been among the lawmakers and others who have been working to evacuate stranded Americans from Afghanistan since the country fell to the Taliban last month following President Biden’s withdrawal of U.S. forces after a 20-year involvement in the country following the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
