Isa is inside the Airport
Isa made it with Sima and his father in law and uncle. They are in the airport! And as soon as they got in, Isa volunteered to help! So he is helping the marines handing out water, and translating, figuring out who needs a doctor – that sort of thing.
They think they will be able to get on a plane tomorrow. I am not sure how long it will take for them to get back to the US – I understand they are taking these planes to nearby countries and then loading folks on other planes to Germany or I don’t know where. At any rate, they are safe!
Last I heard Roshan was trying to get to the gate to get in. I don’t know anything else from him.
So now, we just have to keep helping all those other families – Hedayat’s family, Arif’s family, just about every one of our Afghan friends and extended family have people who desperately need to get out. The Taliban are starting to deliver death threats. I am trying to reach UNHCR to get them to facilitate referrals for P-1 visas. Wish me good luck – and good luck to Roshan and family and all of the people who need to be rescued.
