Afghan interpreter who fled fighting to help get translators out of country
Fox News
An Afghan interpreter who fled the country days before the collapse of Kabul spoke to Fox News Thursday in a bid to get more translators out of the Middle East safely.
"Right now more than 18,000 applicants are left behind," Moneer said. "I’m going to fight for them to not be left behind… their situation is so bad." Moneer pushed back on Taliban claims of being cooperative with interpreters, saying many translators he's spoken to have not been able to get to the airport because of checkpoints. He said people have also been beaten by the Taliban. "It’s hard to trust the Taliban," Moneer said. "They promised a lot of stuff in the past as well, but this is not correct."More Related News
