  White House National Security Council spokesperson Emily Horne said in a statement: “The Taliban cooperated in facilitating the departure of American citizens and legal permanent residents by charter flights... When we negotiated with them for this operation, they showed flexibility and flexibility. Be practical and professional. This is the first step in the positive direction."

  The US also stated that the Taliban’s move is a positive first step.

  Agence France-Presse quoted sources as saying that the Qatar Airways Boeing 777 was carrying "approximately 113" passengers, including Americans, Canadians, Germans and Ukrainians.

The plane took off from the airport in Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan, and arrived in Doha, the capital of Qatar.

  CNN reported that a U.S. official stated that after the U.S. Special Representative for Afghanistan continued to pressure the Taliban, the Taliban agreed to leave about 200 people on chartered flights on the 9th.

A spokesperson for the US State Department declined to give more details.

  This is the first flight to take foreigners out of Afghanistan since the end of the withdrawal of the United States and its Western allies.
