Secretary of State Antony Blinken failed to produce eight key documents to the House Foreign Affairs Committee on its withdrawal of American forces from Afghanistan two years ago, according to a news report published Saturday.
The State Department provided the committee with 300 documents related to the Afghanistan withdrawal on Thursday, but eight documents requested by committee chairman Michael McCaul in a letter on Aug. 9, were not among them, including several memos from Assistant Secretary for Diplomatic Security Todd Brown that McCaul said were identified in the Afghanistan After-Action Review.
Critics of the withdrawal have called it"disastrous" after more than 170 people were killed during the Taliban takeover, and 13 military servicemembers. McCaul has vowed to get more answers from the Biden administration on the evacuation, including information on why a request for a preemptive airstrike was denied when United States intelligence knew ISIS was planning an attack to kill Americans.
The after-action report published this summer found that both the Biden and Trump administrations exhibited"insufficient senior-level consideration of worst-case scenarios and how quickly those might follow" in pushing to meet the deadline for withdrawal.
