Desperate Afghans using 'WhatsApp Dunkirk' to find other ways out of the country – The Telegraph

Afghans trying desperately to escape the new Taliban regime are relying on a network of contacts across the world to find alternative ways out of the country after the airport closed. Composed of former soldiers, ex-diplomats, businessmen and friends of Afghanistan, those in the networks worked tirelessly to coordinate between local Afghans, the militaries overseeing the Kabul airlift, the US State Department, the Foreign Office and other governments willing to host Afghan refugees.
