First international commercial flight after US forces’ withdrawal leaves Kabul

An international commercial flight carrying over 100 foreigners left Kabul on Thursday, making it the first such plane to have taken off since the United States forces left Afghanistan last month, Reuters reported.

A total of 113 people were on the Qatar Airways flight from Kabul to Doha, the agency quoted officials as saying. Citizens of the US, Canada, the Netherlands, Ukraine, Germany and the UK were reportedly among the passengers on the flight.
