‘Total betrayal’: Afghan interpreters shocked as New Zealand ends Kabul evacuation
A group of almost 40 interpreters and others who worked with the NZDF are still trapped in Afghanistan
Afghan interpreters left behind after New Zealand ceased its mercy flights are shocked and terrified at being stranded, saying it is a “total betrayal” by the New Zealand government.
The Guardian spoke to an Afghan interpreter, Ali* who was approved for a resettlement visa in New Zealand due to fears of reprisal from the Taliban for assisting allied forces. He remains in Kabul, and is in contact with a group of 37 other translators, interpreters and other people who assisted New Zealand forces in Afghanistan. He says none of them have been evacuated.
