CNN has uncovered new video evidence that challenges Pentagon investigations into an ISIS-K suicide attack outside Kabul airport in August 2021, during the US troop withdrawal from Afghanistan.
The incident resulted in the deaths of 13 US service members and around 170 Afghans seeking evacuation.
Previously, the military attributed the casualties to a single explosion, dismissing reports of gunfire.
However, video footage and eyewitness testimonies reveal extensive gunfire, contradicting official accounts.
The evidence raises doubts about the credibility of Pentagon investigations and suggests civilians may have been shot, CNN reported in an exclusive article published on their website.
The attack, occurring amidst a chaotic evacuation effort, marked a devastating moment in the conflict’s final days.
