Afghanistan explosions: World leaders react
Fox News
Two explosions outside the Kabul airport Thursday killed at least 12 U.S. service members and injured "dozens" of others as the U.S. attempts to continue its evacuations out of Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.
An official told Fox News that President Biden has been briefed about the explosions, with the president expected to speak at 5 p.m. ET; he has remained silent for several hours after the attacks. A planned meeting between Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has been postponed. German Chancellor Angela Merkel canceled an upcoming trip to Israel, where she was expected to join Bennett for a cabinet meeting on Sunday. The trip was canceled due to "the tense situation in Afghanistan," according to a government spokesperson.More Related News
