Senate Panel To Hold Hearing On Afghanistan Failures

The Senate Foreign Relations Committee plans a hearing on the US withdrawal from Afghanistan, focusing on the Trump administration's peace talks and the Biden administration's evacuation execution. The Taliban promises safe passage to Kabul's airport, but the US advises Americans to prioritize safety. Critics argue the evacuation should have started earlier to avoid chaos. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan explains the delay was to avoid undermining the Afghan government, which fell quickly as the Taliban captured provincial capitals.
