Americans trapped in Kabul told to fill out an online evacuation form as Taliban take over
The State Department on Sunday told Americans in Kabul that their best chance of survival is to hide.
"The security situation in Kabul is changing quickly including at the airport. There are reports of the airport taking fire; therefore we are instructing U.S. citizens to shelter in place," the U.S. Embassy in Afghanistan said in a statement published on its website on Sunday.
The embassy then told everyone that even as the Taliban took over Kabul, it is vital to have that paperwork in order. And access to electrical power and a working Wi-Fi connection are apparently necessary, too.
"U.S. citizens wanting assistance in departing the country should register for any option that might be identified to return to the United States, and must complete this Repatriation Assistance Request for each traveler in their group," the embassy notice said.
"Spouses and minor children of U.S. citizens in Afghanistan who are awaiting immigrant visas should also complete this form if they wish to depart. Please do so as soon as possible. You must complete this form even if you’ve previously submitted your information to the U.S. Embassy in Kabul," it said.

As late as Thursday, State Department spokesman Ned Price had said there was no such thing as an evacuation either in the works or taking place.
"This is not abandonment. This is not an evacuation. This is not the wholesale withdrawal. What this is (is) a reduction in the size of our civilian footprint," Price told reporters Thursday, according to ABC News. "The embassy remains open and we plan to continue our diplomatic work in Afghanistan."

15 questions on 1st page. You can’t see rest of questions until you fill out all 15 questions on 1st page incl SSN.
I guess I was surprised at the level of dumnassery involved in requiring require people in a war zone to fill out an online form. Reminds me of Heartbreak Ridge CF requisitions.

Giant enormous CF! They would be impeaching Trump tomorrow if he did this. The Democrats are the American Taliban.
I read the alerts and links in alerts like “What Dept of State Can and Can Not Do . . .”
It sounds like when they tell you “shelter in place,” it means there isn’t any help coming, you are on your own and best bet is to just stay hidden until it’s safe to move.
And I don’t think it’s going to be safe to move anytime soon.
I wonder how many Americans and other nationals are there. Kabul is a city of 4MM people, I’m guessing at least hundreds if not thousands of Americans and foreign nationals.
I've been kinda nostalgic for the 00s.
Something tells me that the quake in Haiti is now MSM top story.
