Afghan Interpreter Who Once Helped Save Joe Biden Reportedly Begging US for Rescue from Kabul

The man was reportedly left behind amid the hasty evacuation of US forces from Afghanistan, The Wall Street Journal writes, quoting the man.

“Hello Mr President: Save me and my family. Don’t forget me here”, the man called Mohammed (name has been changed over security concerns) told the WSJ.

Mohammed is said to have worked as an interpreter for the US 82nd Airborne force that was deployed from Bagram Air Field to rescue then-Senator Biden and his colleagues John Kerry and Chuck Hagel in February 2008, when their helicopter had to make an emergency landing in Afghanistan during a snowstorm.

In his latest speech last Friday, Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah lashed out at the US for abandoning Afghans who helped Washington throughout its 20-year-occupation. Sayyed Nasrallah said the behavior in which US troops left Afghans who were fleeing from Taliban was a ‘moral failure’, calling allies of the US in our region to take lesson from the events in Afghanistan.
