Hegseth orders new review of Afghanistan withdrawal and suicide bombing at Kabul airport

WASHINGTON — Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ordered another review of the U.S. military's chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021, and of the suicide bombing at the Kabul airport that killed American troops and Afghans. President Donald Trump and Hegseth have repeatedly blasted the Biden administration for the withdrawal, which Hegseth said Tuesday was 'disastrous and embarrassing.' He said the new review will interview witnesses, analyze the decision-making and 'get the truth.'
