Avatar

Saudi Arabia has evacuated members of its diplomatic mission in Kabul, “due to the current and unstable conditions in Afghanistan”.

The statement was made by Saudi Press Agency citing the foreign ministry

The ministry said that “all members of the Kingdom’s embassy in the Afghan capital, Kabul, have been evacuated, and they have arrived home in good health and wellness.”

The Taliban mounted a major offensive and on Sunday militants entered the capital and took control of the presidential palace.

Afghanistan’s President Ashraf Ghani has fled the country.
