Here's how you can help the crisis in Afghanistan:
The Taliban seized control over Kabul on Sunday after two decades of US troops being stationed in the country. Soon after gaining control of the presidential palace, leaders announced their plans to establish an"Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan."
This chaos has halted private flights out of Afghanistan, and seven people have reportedly died both during stampedes and after clinging to departing military jets, according to US officials. Yesterday, President Biden made the decision to withdraw the 2,500 US troops from Afghanistan, noting human rights violations concerns. Though his order was met with a great deal of criticism, in a press conference this afternoon Biden doubled down on his stance.
