August 23, 2021: Afghanistan evacuations, Biden, Taliban, Storm Henri, Kamala Harris, Australia

1. The United States has an unwavering commitment to getting U.S. citizens and at-risk Afghans out of Afghanistan, President Joe Biden said, as Taliban fighters beat back thousands desperate to flee outside Kabul airport.

2. Protests by rival far-right and left-wing groups in Portland descended into violence, as the opposing sides engaged in clashes and at least one man was arrested for firing a gun at demonstrators.

3. Henri weakened to a tropical depression night but was forecast to dump heavy rain across the U.S. Northeast through Monday night, possibly triggering flash floods and further power outages across the region.

4. U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris said during a visit to Singapore that the United States was focusing on evacuation efforts taking place in Afghanistan and that there would be plenty of time to analyze the context of the troop withdrawal.

5. Australia must start to learn to live with COVID-19 when higher vaccination targets are reached, Prime Minister Scott Morrison said, despite concerns in some states about the impact of a surge in cases in Sydney.
