American Students from California Still Trapped Behind Enemy Lines in Afghanistan
By Eric Lendrum
October 7, 2021
Almost two months after the Taliban seized control of the nation of Afghanistan, dozens of American students and their relatives remain stuck in the nation that is now controlled by enemy forces, and with no more American military forces remaining, according to the Los Angeles Times.
The majority of the students are from the Sacramento area of California. The Times’ Justin Ray says that his investigations have led him to believe that there are still “dozens” of families still trapped in Afghanistan, with 38 students among them. The students are all from the San Juan Unified School District.
Although a handful of Americans managed to escape the country in recent weeks – three families and approximately seven students, according to Ray – the overwhelming majority have been unable to successfully leave the country since the Taliban took over the Hamid Karzai International Airport in the capital city of Kabul.
School district officials have said that they are continuing to work closely with the federal government to try to secure the return of all remaining American citizens. San Juan’s Director of Communications Raj Rai said that they “continue to remain hopeful of their safe return soon.”
