>> well, lawmakers just this past weekend were given an estimate by officials that as many as 60,000 afghans could be eligible for that evacuation. not just the siv, special immigrant visa applicants that have worked with the u.s. in the past, for example. that includes human rights defenders, activists, journalists who might be targets and would benefit from getting out of the country. that's as many as 60,000. as of mid july or end of july there are 20,000 special immigrant applicant visas trying to get out of the pipeline. how many have gotten out? the state department has not given us a breakdown. they say 7,000 people have been evacuated at this point but won't say how many are afghans, versus americans versus others who are able to get out. >> i appreciate it. thank you. the diplomats who fear what we're seeing now are warning at
