After almost 20 years, approximately 2,500-3,500 United States Military troops have left, and many are nearing departure, from Afghanistan's Bagram air base. 

President Joe Biden says he expects Afghanistan’s government and military to handle the rising Taliban attacks. 

However, the US has not commented on when the last of its soldiers would depart Afghanistan due to security concerns, and also because of the protection of Kabul's Hamid Karzai International Airport, which is still under the protection of Turkish and US soldiers.
