Straight into quarantine when you arrive Down Under nowadays.
From the Taliban to the Austraban.
The cops in hazmat gear and the evacuees with masks and gloves on.
Its Friday in Sydney with a 9pm to 5 am curfew announced on top of all other lockdown restrictions for much of metropolitan area.

Right. I wonder how long it will be before these evacuees will be begging to return back to Afghanistan. Where there’s more freedom.

Will they all be required to get jabbed before being allowed out of quarantine?

All of a sudden, the Taliban is not that bad after all.

Thanks for posting this reality:
“I wonder how long it will be before these evacuees will be begging to return back to Afghanistan. Where there’s more freedom.”

Why move these people all that distance instead of moving all of them to a staging holding area for forward transport?
Does anyone think about efficiency? At all?

Never mind, I see they were transported to an interim location for onward travel.
The afghanis won’t know what to do at the Hyatt in Perth. Toilets? What are these?
