The Daesh group claims responsibility for an attack outside Kabul airport on Thursday. At least 72 people were killed and another 143 were wounded in the two blasts, Afghan officials say. The attacks, which killed 12 US service members, would not stop the United States from continuing its evacuation of Americans and others. The US general overseeing the evacuation of Americans from Afghanistan says they will "go after" the perpetrators if they can be found. He says there are still "extremely active" security threats at the airport in the Afghan capital.
