kabul, port-au-prince, washington, beijing and moscow as only "early start" can. but we begin with the taliban in charge of afghanistan. the white house now facing dual challenges this morning on a national security level, preventing the kind of extremist resurgence that led to the attack that drew the u.s. into afghanistan in the first place and on a more political level containing the fallout from the catastrophic retreat by the afghan army, the u.s. spent 20 years to defend their own land. images like this seared into history, desperate afghans fleeing the taliban chase an american military plane as it departed yesterday. >> also chilling scenes of what appear to be people in free-fall losing their grip after takeoff. and u.s. forced to get the allies who remain there out. and new photo inside a military cargo plane that flew out

this, okay? it's another image of the death of the chaos in afghanistan and what is driving desperate people, what it's driving people to do. they're desperate this is a photo inside a u.s. air force c 17 from defense one. you can see the cargo plane is absolutely jammed with some 640 men, women, children. even it looks like some of them babies. defense one reports the crew didn't intend to take on so many people but instead of trying to force them off the plane, they decided to take them with them. 640 people on a plane designed to seat only 134 soldiers with their equipment. that's how desperate people in afghanistan are. and like i said, it can be the right decision but executed the wrong way. executed in a way that through the country and its people into chaos. listen what president biden said only a few weeks ago.

evacuate thousands of people through the kabul airport. he says that he's going to use devastating force against the taliban if necessary. so how is he going to do that without combat? how is he going to save thousands of people? these are real questions. thousands of people like these in images becoming the face of the fall of afghanistan. crowds on the tarmac trying to hold on to a u.s. air force cargo plane trying to take off. and the terrible and disturbing videos of what may be people falling to the ground as a plane takes off. remember those images that we had to stop showing? people said they were too harsh of 9/11 of people falling from buildings. you cannot help be reminded of those images of people falling from the buildings at the world trade center 20 years ago. that's what started all of this. and i just want you to look at

checkpoints outside the airport, people are being beaten and whipped when they try and cross these checkpoints and some of the evacuation points are nearly empty as a result what assurances do you have specifically about these checkpoints? >> two things about that. first, the earliest evacuation flights in any evacuation tend not to have every seat filled because the process of getting any evacuation underway has a through-put issue. we believe that is being resolved with each successive flight and we will be putting 300 passengers on your average military cargo plane heading out of the country one after the other, hot on loading and hot off loading. by and large we've found that people have been able to get to the airport and present themselves. there have been instances where we have received reports of people being turned away or pushed back or even beaten. we are taking that up in a

obviously, a lot of experts who didn't see this coming. but there are, also, some experts who did see this coming. some people who served in the military who said, of course, this was going to happen. of course, the willpower was going to disappear, especially once they lost that critical-u.s. air support, as well as those u.s. defense contractors who have been helping to maintain the afghan air force once the united states wound down its presence there. >> let's bring oren in, from the pentagon. oren, you can weigh in on this and also as we are talking, i want to bring up this photo of the more than 600 afghans inside a military cargo plane. it's an extraordinary event. extraordinary picture to look at. they represent just a fraction of the afghans trying to evade the brutal regime there. what is the pentagon saying, tonight, about their efforts to keep people -- to get people out and this crisis happening in kabul? >> well, first, let's take a look at that photo because it speaks so much to the despair, the panic, the -- the utter chaos of afghan civilians now trying to flee what is no longer just afghanistan but is soon to be the islamic emirate afghanistan under the taliban. the flag that we have known for
