Quote:Afghan Women Scream ‘The Taliban Are Coming' As They Beg Troops To Save Them
CHILLING CRIES: DESPERATE Afghan women screamed "the Taliban are coming" as they begged troops to save them through the fence at Kabul airport.
Women were filmed reaching their hands through iron railings towards American troops while screaming for help as Afghans face a new horror reality under the ruthless rule of the Taliban.
Taliban gunmen have now surrounded the airport - the only route out of the war-torn country for thousands of refugees and foreign nationals stranded in the capital and nearby provinces.
The militants have reportedly been funnelling people towards a gate on the south side of the airport and demanding documents before civilians can pass.
Shocking video footage also showed crowds pushed up against concrete walls on the airport's north side with shots being fired over the heads of men, women and children to keep them back.
General Sir Nick Carter, the UK's chief of the defence staff, said they are working with the Taliban to ensure people can leave - but he warned there are "a lot of challenges on the ground".
Last night, Taliban thugs reportedly attacked women and children with whips and sticks before firing their guns amid chaos at the airport.
At least half dozen people were injured, including a mother and young boy
AFGHAN RESETTLEMENT
It comes as around 20,000 Afghans will be flown to Britain to escape the Taliban in one of the biggest resettlements in our history.
The PM will vow to rescue women and girls in particular from the clutches of the fanatics.
He will vow to honour the "debt" the country owes the Afghan people by rescuing the most vulnerable.
The programme — one of the biggest of its kind in British history — will focus on giving asylum to women, girls and religious minorities fleeing persecution.
It will run for five years, with 5,000 Afghans offered asylum this year alone.
'PROUD MOMENT'
Meanwhile, a Taliban leader declared their victory a "proud moment for the nation" yesterday and vowed to impose Sharia law on Afghanistan.
Zabihullah Mujahid appeared in public for the first time after 20 years in the shadows after the fanatics' stunning success in defeating the government.
Mujahid said the Taliban "are committed to the rights of women" - but added that would be "under the system of Sharia".

Many had doubted he even existed but in an extraordinary moment he took to the stage to say "after 20 years of struggle we have emancipated our country and expelled foreigners".
