Family of boy who fell from aircraft out of Kabul explain why he left

"Everyone is trying to run away. It is in fear of the Taliban, they are killing people. They have all left to go the airport... they want to go abroad." They explained how the boy heard rumours that Canada and the USA were accepting 20,000 refugees, and leapt at the chance to start a new life away from Taliban rule. He apparently left "without telling anyone in the house, he took his personal ID, and left to the airport."

"We hope to find him dead or alive so it will console our family," they said. "We are worried, and we went from one hospital to another, but we didn’t get any information. "His mother is devastated, she is passing out every now and then." The family are appealing to media to try and find him. On Thursday, the Taliban urged people to leave Kabul airport, with 12 people now reported to have died in the chaos over recent days.
