The vehicles were sweeping roads in their assigned area in Jalalabad, Afghanistan, looking for IEDs.

A reporter covering President-elect Joe Biden’s transition tested positive for COVID-19, and a staffer is in quarantine “out of an abundance of caution.”

He also adhered to masking and social distancing guidelines at all times during the trip.”
