A Washington Post reporter has revealed British troops helped her and her Afghan team get to Kabul airport so they could board US evacuation flights — as the Biden administration faces mounting criticism for not allowing forces to go out and rescue stranded Americans.
Reporter Susannah George wrote about her “treacherous journey” to flee Kabul with her colleagues and their families, including eight young children, just two days after the Taliban seized control of Afghanistan.
In a follow-up interview after being evacuated, George told MSNBC: “The only reason I was able to get to the airport with my team was because there was a large British evacuation going on … and also because I was with my team. I am an American passport holder.”
“The danger of going to the airport is so incredibly high at the moment.”
Given the deadly chaos outside the airport in the days after the Taliban came to power, George said she and her team rented armored cars driven by private security in a bid to protect themselves as they plotted how they were going to get into the airport.
