Prince William reportedly helped Afghan officer, family escape Kabul

Prince William personally intervened to help an Afghan National Army officer and his family escape Kabul and flee to the UK, according to a report.

The 39-year-old prince heard about the officer’s struggles to get to Kabul airport with his family of more than 10 amid the chaotic mass evacuations last week. The officer and his family, including women and children, were all eligible to be evacuated by UK troops because he’d assisted British troops on the ground in Afghanistan throughout the war.
