The Pentagon’s Central Command has ordered interviews of roughly two dozen more service members who were at the Kabul airport when suicide bombers attacked during U.S. forces’ chaotic Afghanistan withdrawal.

The decision, according to officials, does not reopen the administration's investigation into the deadly bombing and the withdrawal two years ago. But the additional interviews will likely be seized on by congressional critics, mostly Republican, as proof that the administration bungled the probe into the attack, in addition to mishandling the withdrawal.

Facing fresh scrutiny two years on, the Pentagon has decided to interview roughly two dozen new witnesses to the Kabul bombing during the Afghanistan withdrawal.

The new interviews were triggered in part by assertions that the 2021 bombing could have been stopped, which conflict with the Pentagon's conclusion that it was unavoidable.
