A Marine wounded in last year’s suicide bombing at Kabul’s Hamid Karzai International Airport claims the bomber was spotted near the airport days before the explosion that killed 13 American service members. “We knew about him two days prior to the attack,” Tristan Hirsch of Chico, Calif., told his hometown paper, the Enterprise-Record, referring to the Aug. 26, 2021, bombing that also left at least 170 Afghans dead. “We knew what he looked like. The CIA let us know,” he added about getting the heads up to look out for the suspicious man.
