The evacuation operations at Kabul airport continue to remain “uninterrupted” following the rocket attack, confirmed the White House on Monday.
In a statement, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said US President Joe Biden was briefed about the rocket attack by National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan and Chief of Staff Ron Klain.
“The President was informed that operations continue uninterrupted at HKIA (Hamid Karzai International Airport), and has reconfirmed his order that commanders redouble their efforts to prioritize doing whatever is necessary to protect our forces on the ground,” Psaki said.
On Monday, at least five rockets were fired toward the Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul, a US official told ABC news.
