KABUL (Pajhwok): Qatar may suspend evacuation flights for Afghan refugees trying to resettle in the United States, reports an American media outlet.
The Gulf country, which hosts the Football World Cup in November, plans to halt evacuation flights, ABC News said.
Thousands of Afghans, who worked for the US military, are currently trying to fly out of the country. The backlog will increase if the Qatari plan goes ahead.
In collaboration with the Biden administration, Qatar supervises weekly Kabul-Doha flights for Afghans seeking relocation to the US.
Before leaving for the US, the Afghans arrive at a US base . . .
