Biden on Kabul: The sooner we finish, the better - BBC News

US President Joe Biden says the US is "on pace" to meet a 31 August deadline for evacuations, despite previous calls from allies for an extension.

Mr Biden said the airlift had to come to an end soon because of an increasing threat from the Islamic State group in Afghanistan.
