Biden Sending 3,000 Troops To Afghanistan
President Biden is sending 3,000 new troops into Afghanistan to evacuate Americans from Kabul, according to U.S. officials. “Afghan government forces are collapsing even faster than U.S. military leaders thought possible just a few months ago when President Joe Biden ordered a full withdrawal,” U.S. News reported. “The Taliban, who ruled the country from 1996 until U.S. forces invaded after the 9/11 attacks, captured three more provincial capitals Wednesday and two on Thursday, the 10th and 11th the insurgents have taken in a weeklong sweep that has given them effective control of about two-thirds of the country.” The Associated Press
