The situation in Afghanistan is deteriorating very fast after the occupation of the Taliban. Like other countries of the world including America, India has also intensified the campaign to rescue its citizens trapped there. Under this, the Air Force's C-17 Globemaster aircraft has reached Jamnagar in Gujarat from Kabul with more than 120 officers including the Indian Ambassador. The employees were safely evacuated to safer areas of the airport late last evening. Let us inform you that earlier on Monday, the C-17 Globemaster aircraft reached India carrying about 150 people.

 

After the Taliban took over the capital of Afghanistan, many other countries have closed their embassies located there. Saudi Arabia has evacuated all diplomats from its embassy in Kabul. The New Zealand government is also sending aircraft for the evacuation of its people from the country. Russia and China have not closed their embassies in Afghanistan, while the US is busy closing its embassy as well as evacuating employees.

 

Let us tell you that since the capture of the Taliban, thousands of people have arrived at Kabul Airport. All commercial flights have been stopped from taking off from Kabul Airport. Air India on Monday canceled its flight to Kabul after the airport was declared unregulated. In addition, various airlines rerouted their flights between India and Western countries to avoid Afghan airspace.

 

Indians evacuated with US help

 

Two C-17 Globemaster aircraft of the IAF were sent to Kabul to bring back Indians stranded in Afghanistan. If sources are to be believed, due to the crowd at Kabul airport, the planes could not land there. After this, the planes were landed at an airport in Tajikistan. Then the plane reached Kabul with the help of the American fleet. From there, a plane carrying about 150 people using Iranian airspace landed at Hindon Air Force Station on Monday.
