CBSN
CBS News has secured the evacuation of Afghan individuals who provided support of its news coverage on the ground in Afghanistan.
The group of workers and their family members — dozens in total — had arrived safely in Doha, the capital of Qatar, by Tuesday morning for processing. They aim to eventually gain refugee status in the United States. "We have been working to ensure the safe departure of our Afghan colleagues from the country as events escalated. These are extraordinary circumstances involving many levels of coordination across our London and Washington, D.C. teams," said Neeraj Khemlani, president and co-head of CBS News and the CBS Television Stations.More Related News
