U.S. pauses Afghanistan evacuation flights as processing facility hits capacity

With tens of thousands of U.S. nationals, legal residents, their families and untold numbers of Afghans all desperate for a way out of the Taliban's Afghanistan, the U.S. military was forced on Friday to pause its evacuation flights out of Kabul. The suspension, hopefully to be quickly reversed by the opening of a new flight option to a base in Bahrain, was due to the current processing facility in Qatar hitting capacity.

People inside the stuffy air base on Friday described the situation to CBS News as "pretty much a full-blown humanitarian disaster."
