The U.S. sends additional bomber fighter jets to protect the withdrawal of U.S. and allied forces from Afghanistan

　　China News Service, May 7th. According to the "Central News Agency" report, on the 6th local time, the Pentagon stated that the U.S. military has sent additional heavy bombers and fighter jets to protect the withdrawal of U.S. and allied forces from Afghanistan.

So far, the United States and allied forces have not been directly attacked.

　　Mark Milly, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the United States, said that in order to protect the safe evacuation of troops, 6 B-52 long-range bombers and 12 F-18 fighter jets have been ordered to provide emergency support.

　　Milli said that although the Taliban launched 80 to 120 attacks on Afghan government targets every day, "there have been no attacks against US and coalition forces since the withdrawal of the troops began on May 1."

　　US Secretary of Defense Austin said: "The evacuation operation is proceeding as planned."

　　Austin and Milly emphasized that although the United States continues to work closely with the Afghan security forces, the relationship between the two sides will be adjusted with this withdrawal.

　　At present, there is widespread concern that the Taliban may threaten the power of the Afghan government after the withdrawal of US troops.

In this regard, Milli said that the Afghan forces should not be deemed useless.

　　He said: "The Afghan National Security Forces and the Afghan government are still united," and "The President of the United States intends to provide support to them."

　　Milli said that the Pentagon is considering continuing to support the Afghan government forces after completing the withdrawal, including training Afghan security forces in another country.

In addition, the Congress will also be urged to authorize continued financial assistance to the Afghan army.

　　Austin stated that he hopes that the Afghan security forces will play an important role in stopping the Taliban.

　　The Afghan War began on October 7, 2001, when the U.S. military overthrew the Taliban regime at the end of that year; in May 2011, the U.S. military killed bin Laden, the mastermind of the "9.11" incident.

　　On December 31, 2014, Obama announced that the U.S. military began to withdraw from its main operations in Afghanistan. In February 2020, the then Trump administration signed an agreement with the Taliban, announcing that the U.S. military will be in May 2021. All will be evacuated before 1 day.

However, the withdrawal time was later extended; in April 2021, after the new U.S. President Biden took office, he announced that all U.S. troops would withdraw from Afghanistan before September 11 of that year.
