Catholic Charities Mobilize to Aid Afghan Refugees

Catholic groups are welcoming Afghan refugees into the country as the U.S. military continues their attempts to evacuate up to 15,000 American citizens and tens of thousands Afghan people trying to leave the country. The Taliban seized Kabul Sunday as the Biden administration’s planned withdrawal of U.S. troops from the region by Aug. 31 was underway. [1]
