Afghanistan News: After the complete control of the Taliban in Afghanistan, the process of fleeing people from there continues. The Government of India is making constant efforts to evacuate its citizens stranded there and is also considering the option of hiring an aircraft to ensure the speedy return of more and more people.
Indian aircraft in stand by mode
News agency ANI quoted sources as saying that C-17 aircraft have been deployed at Ayni Air Base in Tajikistan on behalf of India to evacuate people from Afghanistan, as there is a lot of crowd at Kabul airport. That’s why the Indian aircraft has been parked there in stand by mode. As soon as the US-controlled Kabul airport is evacuated, then the Indian aircraft will arrive there.
