Trump administration deported Afghan relative who aided U.S. military to Central African Republic
A family in Afghanistan has reported receiving threats from the Taliban, citing the work of two brothers who provide support services to the U.S. military. The family, residing in a rural area of the country, said the threats were issued after the brothers were identified as contractors assisting with logistics and engineering tasks for U.S. forces operating in the region.
The brothers’ roles involve coordinating supply deliveries and maintaining critical infrastructure for U.S. military operations. According to local security officials, the Taliban has repeatedly warned families of U.S. contractors that they could face retaliation if their relatives continue to support foreign troops. The U.S. Embassy in Kabul has confirmed that it is monitoring the situation and has advised families in similar circumstances to take precautionary measures.
The family has sought protection from local authorities and is awaiting a response from U.S. security agencies. The incident underscores the ongoing risks faced by civilians connected to foreign military activities in Afghanistan, as the Taliban continues to target those perceived as collaborators with U.S. forces.
