The American withdrawal from Afghanistan faces its final, treacherous days. President Joe Biden set a deadline for Tuesday and already the US military is coming under fire, and returning fire as the last planes fly out. Tonight, after two decades, America's final moments in Afghanistan are unfolding. As planes fly out, rockets are flying in. Five rockets targeted the Kabul airport this morning. There were no US casualties; however, the threats do not stop there. With just hours to go before the US leaves for good, Army Major General William "Hank" Taylor says "U.S. military forces conducted an unmanned over the horizon air strike on a vehicle known to be an imminent ISIS K threat." Innocent people caught in the middle have lost their lives. Nearly 20 years have gone by since 9/11 and for 13 families, the grieving is just beginning. Over the weekend, at Dover Air Force Base, President Biden attended his first dignified transfer since taking office. 13 flag-draped cases carrying the remains of the service members killed in last week's terror attack returned home.
