It's not going to be peaceful.
The Afghans may not be fighting, but we have a lot of US personnel on the ground.
1. Taliban are IN the presidential palace and posed for a photo op earlier today. They are claiming that there will be no transition - they are the liberators and they are here to claim what's theirs.
2. The Embassy was evacuated of all Diplo personnel, leaving contractors and clean up teams. The embassy has taken accurate SAF and reported IEDs emplaced around the compound.
3. Still no public confirmation from the administration that we have boots on the ground and loose ROEs to hold a final perimeter but an AC-130 is (or was) on station. Reports of UK MoD troops engaging Talib ground forces, and the airport has taken indirect.
4. Lots of westerners still left in place.
