Several disturbing and heart-wrenching videos have emerged from Afghanistan after the extremist group Taliban took over the country. Ever since the militia's hostile takeover, the country has been left in shambles and people are desperately fleeing to save their lives.
The US troops are conducting the evacuation process in Kabul and a video of a father handing out his baby to the US security personnel has gone viral on social media and it is probably one of the most heartbreaking things you can see. The video is proof of how desperate the Afghans are to escape from the Taliban.?
In the video, the US security personnel can be seen taking a baby with one hand amidst wires into the secure area and passing it over to a colleague to get to safety.?
The video has been shared several times on social media and one such post on Instagram reads, 'Kabul Airport today at 13:32. This is how the situation looked like: Tens of elderly men, women, and some children got injured. The situation at Kabul airport was horrible. It was filled with scared and scary people. Open firing, Gas, and explosives were used to control the crowd. I hope the parents reunite with the baby.'
The post also says that once the father handed the baby to the US troops, he then went to look for its mother who was apparently badly injured due to the crowd.?
Social media users were traumatised after watching one of many videos from Afghanistan. One user wrote, 'Please tell me the parents are re-United with the baby !!! Please(sic)'.
Another commented, 'As a mom, it¡¯s so hard to even watch. I can¡¯t believe our people are at this position.'
'The way that soldier grabbed the baby by its arm broke my heart. #prayforafghanistan' wrote a third user.?
Our prayers are with the people of Afghanistan.?
