Multiple fatalities amongst civilians & US service personnel due to bomb explosions at Kabul airport
There have been twin bomb attacks at Kabul airport which the Taliban say killed at least 13 people
Explosions took place outside the Abbey Gate - where US and British forces have been stationed - and at a nearby hotel
The Pentagon says there have been a number of US dead in what was a "complex" attack. US media say four Marines were killed
Boris Johnson says the attack is "despicable" but it will not interrupt the UK's operation
The attack came after warnings there could be militant attacks, as nations evacuate people ahead of a 31 August deadline
Meanwhile, Canada has joined several European nations in wrapping up evacuation operations
Huge crowds of people have built up at Afghanistan's border with Pakistan as people try to flee Taliban rule
Westerners and Afghans who worked for foreign missions want to leave after Taliban militants came back to power

Looks like ISIL couldn’t wait for the Taliban deadline.
