Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said he does not have any"regrets" about how the U.S. military ended its war in Afghanistan in August 2021.
The U.S. military conducted a noncombatant emergency operation beginning in mid-August, in which they ultimately evacuated roughly 120,000 civilians from Hamid Karzai International Airport, though thousands of allies were left behind to live in fear of the Taliban. “Has anyone been held accountable for what happened in Afghanistan?” Austin was asked again, to which the secretary responded, “To my knowledge, no.”
A number of House committees have sought documents from Biden administration departments regarding the withdrawal.
