Many US service members were killed at the Kabul airport. There were 11 dead Americans left at the Kabul airport in Afghanistan, 10 marines and 1 army soldier. The isis-k terror group were the people in charge of the suicide bomb. This was the reasoning for evacuation to America.
The suicide bomb was the deadliest attack on the US troops in Afghanistan in more than a decade. 20 US troops were injured by the suicide bomb. 9 marines and a navy hospitalman are at California’s Camp Pendleton. 169 afganisans died from the bombing. That keeps rising because they keep finding bodies that people took from the scene before they were counted.
The US said that more than 100,000 people were safely evacuated from the airport to America. There are over 1,000 Americans and ten thousand more afganistans trying to escape to the US. They are all packing into one of history's largest aircrafts. Gen. Frank McKenzie, the central command chief said on Thursday about 5,000 people were waiting for a flight on one of the aircrafts.
Do you know what a suicide bomb is?
What would you do if you were in afganistan?
How long do you think this civil war will last in afganistan?

Good topic choice Paige. While you summarized the story fine, I am looking more for your voice, your opinions. I am not looking for just a summary of a news story. Also, all of your comments were done on the same day. Be sure to comment back on three different days next time.
Yes it is when the pilot crashes in to something to kill a lot of people and dies himself. If I was in afganistan I would wait at the airport even though it is dangerous. I would want the to get out the first chance I could get. The war will last a long time.
A suicide bomb is an explosion where the person who makes it died in an attemp of killing or damaging other people. I think if I were in Afghanistan I probably wanna get out because the situation specially for women is really difficult. The talibans want to get rid of all the rights of women. I think the civil war will last many years because it's really difficult especially if the people there don't wanna fight the talibans for fear of dying or something else.
A suicide bomb is a terible form of bombing that involves a person dying in the explosion in an attemt to get other people. If I was in Afgantastan I would want to get out of their as soon as I could because the taliban is taking over. I think that the civil war in Afgantastan will last for like 5 years but that is just a guess.
Yes, a suicide bomber is any violent attack involving explosion. If I were in afghanistan I would just try to get the heck out of there if I could, if not just protect myself and family. I think it'll last longer that 25 years at least.
Suicide bombs are were you are suicide and involve bombing with it. Which can involve lots and lots of people including your own life. If I was currently in Afghanistan I would try to be less noticeable at first. I would try to stay very calm and cautious. I would slowly try to get my ways of how to get out or hide. I would do anything for anyone if it meant I could escape. I think that in the next 50 years it will end. Once all the small or large groups fighting are done or gone it will end.
I agree with everything you said you also worded everthing very nicely.
Suicide Bombs is where a person puts bombs on them then explodes it when he gets in range of there destined attack location. If I was in afghanistan I would be hiding and attempting to leave as the Taliban is a very dangerous terroist group. I believe the civil war will continue until most of the terrorist groups are gone as then there would be no threat.
Suicide bombs were always an psycho technique that Al-Qaeda used commonly. If I were in Afghanistan, I would probably do what everyone did, try to escape. In my opinion this civil war will last for a pretty long time no matter U.S's impact or not.
I agree the war will last long with or with out Americas help because its been going on for 20 year and there hasnt been a change.
