 Thousands of Afghans have waited at the heat outside Kabul Airport, desperate to get on a flight to leave the country. Shuaib, an Afghan citizen who had previously worked with foreign forces, told Reuters he wanted to leave Afghanistan and go to the country he had worked for. He did not specify his job or which country he had worked for. A senior German diplomat said the Taliban have told Germany that Afghans with legal documents will be able to travel on commercial flights beyond the August 31 cut of date after which evacuations from Kabul Airport will no longer be allowed.
