KABUL — Senior Afghan officials and hundreds of Afghan government forces in the country’s west and south surrendered to the Taliban early Friday after the militants overran three key cities, inching the country closer to collapse in the final days of the U.S. withdrawal.
The recent advances by the militant group, largely achieved with little resistance from Afghan government forces despite years of U.S. training and support, are isolating the Afghan capital with stunning speed and increasingly weakening the administration of President Ashraf Ghani.
In the western city of Herat, an entire Afghan army corps crumbled, with hundreds of troops handing over their weapons to the Taliban and others fleeing, according to local officials. The surrender deal was brokered Thursday night by a group of Taliban leaders who met with Afghan government and security forces at the military base where they were holed up after the city was overrun earlier that day.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said the embassy drawdown and troop deployment revived memories of the United States’ “humiliating” retreat from Vietnam at the end of that war.
“The latest news of a further drawdown at our Embassy and a hasty deployment of military forces seem like preparations for the fall of Kabul, ” he said in a statement. “President Biden’s decisions have us hurtling toward an even worse sequel to the humiliating fall of Saigon in 1975.”

The recent advances by the militant group, largely achieved with little
resistance from Afghan government forces despite years of U.S. training and support, are isolating the Afghan capital with stunning speed and
