BREAKING – U.S. Embassy tells Americans NOT to go to Kabul airport due to ‘security threats’ one day after Biden said there was ‘no indication’ Taliban had stopped citizens reaching airport

• The U.S. Embassy told Americans on Saturday not to go to Kabul airport because of ‘security threats outside its gates
• The warning was issued less than 24 hours after Biden promised to bring everyone home
• During Biden’s Friday press briefing, Department of Defense spokesman John Kirby he was aware of reports of Americans being beaten by the Taliban

The U.S. Embassy told Americans on Saturday not to go to Kabul airport – which is the only way out of the country – because of ‘security threats’ outside its gates.

The warning was issued less than 24 hours after President Joe Biden said there was ‘no indication’ that the Taliban was stopping Americans and their allies from reaching the airport and promised to get everyone home.

That was part of Biden’s 50-minute speech on Friday, which was the first time in nine days the president answered any questions about the chaos in Afghanistan.

During the speech, he was contradicted by Department of Defense spokesman John Kirby who said he was aware of reports of Americans being beaten by the Taliban as they tried to reach safety.

The point was furthered over the last 12 hours as videos depicting pandemonium and occasional violence outside the airport have surfaced.

Vulnerable Afghans who fear the Taliban’s retaliation send desperate pleas not to be left behind.
