Al Jazeera English published this video item, entitled “US army vets shocked over Taliban takeover in ‘the longest war'” – below is their description.
In the United States, many veterans who served in Afghanistan have been watching the Taliban takeover with dismay.
US President Joe Biden has defended his decision to continue the withdrawal from the US’s longest war, in which nearly 2,500 Americans died.
But the incredible scenes from Kabul airport have prompted strong reactions from veterans, and surveys suggest that support for the withdrawal among Americans is slipping.
