Fox News
Secretary of State Lloyd Austin and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Mark Milley provided an update of the evacuation of American citizens and pledged to successfully evacuate all American citizens attempting to flee the war-torn region.
Nevertheless, Austin noted, "We don't have the capability to go out and collect large numbers of people." Previously, officials have been hesitant to guarantee that all Americans who wish to leave would be evacuated if they were not out by the Aug 31 withdrawal deadline.More Related News
