On Monday, President Joe Biden will address America about the ongoing crisis in Afghanistan.
Monday’s address will be his first since Sunday’s Taliban invasion of Kabul.
The Taliban took control of cities across Afghanistan in recent weeks, and stormed Kabul on Sunday as President Ashraf Ghani said in a Facebook post that he had fled the country.
Photos and videos showed Taliban fighters taking over the presidential palace, carrying guns, and reciting lines from the Quran, Islam’s holy book.
