#AfghanistanWithdrawal

Chaotic end to America’s 20-year war in Afghanistan.

Origin & Impact

The U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan in August 2021 descended into chaos as the Taliban rapidly seized control. Heartbreaking images of Afghans clinging to departing planes and the Kabul airport bombing that killed 13 U.S. service members dominated global news.

The botched withdrawal damaged Biden’s approval ratings and sparked debate about America’s “forever wars.”
