News from Kabul Luftbrücke

Here you will find the latest news about the work of Kabul Luftbrücke and our efforts to create a federal reception programme. For security reasons, we cannot report on the evacuation measures until they have been completed.

  • This morning we evacuated 148 people from Afghanistan on a donor-funded charter flight, including two of the Afghan air traffic controllers who had previously worked for the Bundeswehr.

  • We continue to evacuate people: In recent weeks, we have been able to expand different ways of evacuating people by air and land, and your donations have already helped 423 people to flee.

  • Participants: Theresa Breuer, Mattea Weihe, Ruben Neugebauer

Who are the people we are evacuating from Afghanistan?

The people come from different sectors of society: judges, intellectuals, climate activists, athletes, LGBTIQ people, women’s rights activists and many more. Countless others are still on our lists and are still stuck in Afghanistan.
