The US says its drone strike in Kabul today was successful in “eliminating an imminent” threat to the airport, where evacuations are winding down.

Capt Bill Urban of US Central Command said he was “confident” that the target, a vehicle carrying at least one person associated with IS-K and a “substantial amount of explosive material”, was destroyed.

“We are assessing the possibilities of civilian casualties, though we have no indications at this time,” he said.

“We remain vigilant for potential future threats.”

I don't believe one damn thing our government says. I bet they didn't hit a damn thing, and it was all for show.

“I would refuse THAT meeting.”

I would. I would tell that lying POS that his actions killed and he lies about everything.

Why would the US be doing any bombing? Thought we’ve given all our weapons and top secret intelligence to the enemy already.

Charles Lister
@Charles_Lister
Update: Death toll from US strike in #Kabul has risen to 9.

6 of them were children.

BIG questions to be asked about this one — where did the intel come from and/or how willing were we to incur collateral damage?

Copy that, they kept that one short notice.
For his weekend visits, they usually post NOTAMS no less than 24 hours in advance.
I feel sorry for anyone who was already in the air when the TFR came out. Fortunately, today wasn’t my day.

We plan our flights a month in advance, their minute by minute changes really screws up our schedules...
