Fearful Of The Taliban, At-Risk Afghans Urgently Seek A Way Out

Afghan families gather after leaving their homeland and reaching the Pakistan side of the border, near the town of Chaman on Tuesday. Pakistan and other countries bordering Afghanistan have mostly closed their borders to Afghan refugees, with some exceptions.

Many Afghans who worked with the American military are desperately trying to flee. One of them is Mohammed, a colonel in the Afghan army who's now in hiding with a group of more than a dozen families.
