The Indian government is on a mission to evacuate its citizens from Afghanistan.
The United States on Sunday engaged several major US airlines in the chaotic evacuation of tens of thousands of Afghans and foreigners from Kabul after the fall of the Taliban. The Pentagon said Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin had activated the infrequently used Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF) to aid the continued movement of people arriving at US bases in the Middle East.
Eighteen civilian vessels from American Airlines, Atlas, Delta, Omni, Hawaiian and United will assist dozens of military cargo transports involved in the evacuation, the statement said.
