The analysis and 'big picture' stuff is great on the BBC, but Stuart Ramsay at Sky News has filed some incredible on-the-ground reports over the last few days, gaining access where to where British Forces are processing evacuees.
This one from yesterday gives an insight to how UK soldiers are relying on Taliban fighters to assist with crowd control. And from today, travelling in the bus with evacuees from a compound passing others still waiting, and then boarding the plane to the UK. The big questions about this situation need to be asked, but these compelling human-level reports have been so humbling.
Thank you for sharing those reports. I've been watching BBC and indeed had not seen anything like that; really quite moving.
