An emotional US President vowed revenge on the ISIS group that attacked the Kabul Airport. “We will not forgive, we will not forget, we will hunt you down and make you pay,” Joe Biden said at the White House on Thursday evening. The twin explosions at the Kabul Airport have killed 13 US service members.
“To those who carried out this attack, as well as anyone who wishes America harm, know this: We will not forgive; we will not forget,” Biden said.
This is the first combat involving fatalities for American soldiers since February 2020. US President however reiterated that the Kabul Airport attack will not deter the evacuation process of Americans from Afghanistan. “We will not be deterred by terrorists; we will not let them stop our mission. We will continue the evacuations,” he said.
