Taliban forces are gaining momentum, pushing the Afghanistan government's forces out of several districts and taking control of various weapons and military vehicles in the process, while the U.S. withdraws from the country. While this happens, the Afghanistan government continues to lose territory, having already left seven districts as the Taliban assumes control. U.S. Central Command announced Tuesday that the drawdown is more than 90% complete and handed over seven facilities to the Afghan military. "We can’t ignore the reality on the ground in Afghanistan," Ernst wrote in a Fox News op-ed. "It's sort of a public relations disaster, a physical security disaster, and a foreign policy disaster," Charles said.
