More than 100 Filipinos are waiting to be evacuated from Kabul after President Rodrigo Duterte called for mandatory repatriation. Thirty-five Filipino workers were earlier flown to Manila by their employers on a charter flight a few hours after the Taliban seized the capital city of Afghanistan on Aug. 16. “The Department of Foreign Affairs is working non-stop to explore all options to ensure the safety and welfare of our people in Afghanistan in the face of challenging conditions,” foreign affairs assistant secretary Eduardo Menez told reporters on Aug. 17.
