Pentagon confirms nearly 450 Americans trapped in Afghanistan
Fox News
The Pentagon stated Tuesday that nearly 450 American citizens are still in Afghanistan following August’s U.S. military withdrawal, more than the Biden administration has previously claimed.
"One of the many confusing things about this whole thing is that we really don’t know how many Americans are left in Afghanistan," Inhofe said. "The administration’s number of U.S. citizens left in Afghanistan keeps changing. We all understand that. It’s very confusing."
Inhofe noted that the Biden administration "always said 100 to 200 U.S. citizens left in Afghanistan," but now says it "has already withdrawn 234 and is in contact with 363 others, 176 of whom want to leave," citing numbers the State Department provided last week.
