US President Joe Biden says he remains committed to getting all American citizens and Afghans whose lives were at risk out of Afghanistan but warned that the ISIL-affiliated Islamic State in the Khorasan Province could stage an attack.
Biden has come under enormous criticism for what some say is a botched departure from Afghanistan.
Since August 14, the US has airlifted 28,000 people out.
But tens of thousands of desperate Afghans are still waiting for their turn.
