Afghanistan Crisis Remains Fluid, Dynamic, DOD Spokesman Says
The U.S. military footprint in Afghanistan is at about 4,500 troops on the ground in Kabul at Hamid Karzai International Airport, which they secured days ago. The operation to hold down the airport and evacuate civilians from Afghanistan is ongoing and a few hundred more troops might arrive today, the spokesman said.
The Kabul airport remains secure and open for flight operations; military flights are arriving and departing consistently, and there are limited commercial flight operations, in addition to some foreign contracted flights that are coming and going, he said.
“In the past 24 hours, 18 C-17 [Globemaster III] aircraft and one C-130 [Hercules] arrived with around 700 additional troops and some equipment. And that brought our total to about 4,500 [troops],” Kirby said.
That number includes about 1,300 Marines, who will continue to flow in from the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit and the Special Marine Air-Ground Task Force Crisis Response, he noted, emphasizing that both pre-positioned units were forward deployed in the U.S. Central Command area of operations as part of their normal deployment. Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III wanted to ensure those Marines would be ready to go on short notice, Kirby said, adding that noncombatant evacuation operations support is something that “Marines are well-trained in and do well, so we’re glad to have them on the ground.”
Additionally, 18 C-17s have departed Kabul in the last 24 hours. “These flights have carried around 2,000 passengers, and I can confirm that 325 of those passengers are American citizens,” the spokesman said. “The remainder of the number includes Afghans and some NATO personnel.”
In the next 24 hours, the scheduled airlift numbers will be similar to the last 24 hours, he said, emphasizing that there are a number of factors that can influence flight operations and the circumstances can change.
Kirby said he couldn’t guarantee that the numbers of people on those planes will be the same, because some of the planes are still coming in loaded for equipment, and not all are empty C-17s with 300 seats on them. “There are different configurations on the planes,” he said.

#1 “ONE” not triune: ……Satan in The garden…God said you will die…Satan comes along and states no you will be more WISE……today .God said He is one; but Satan’s children come along and say no three is more WISE and humble in the face of God’s grandeur only “a mystery” that can be understood “in faith”. Fools, hypocrites and blind guides, God said he was One and by your traditions and vain imaginations have taken the words of God and made them of no effect, refashioning God into your image!
Jesus is only a son by vertue of the fact that the human flesh that the SINGULAR PERSON GOD occupied belonged to God personaly there was no other spirit in Jesus to lay claim to the male human flesh/son of marry/”SON OF MAN” …..erogo “son OF GOD” bleonging to God (as a possesion) not a second or different person!! As such Jesus is not the bastard son trinitarians or muslims would try to make him out to be
