Blackwater founder Erik Prince offers evacuation flights from Kabul for $6,500 per person
[Washington Examiner] Blackwater founder Erik Prince is offering an alternative arrangement to evacuate eligible Afghans out of Kabul, but it comes at a hefty price.With President Joe Biden sticking to the Aug. 31 deadline to withdraw U.S. military forces, the United States has prioritized flying passport-carrying U.S. citizens from Afghanistan before other eligible refugees or special immigrant visa applicants. This has created a situation contributing to widespread desperation around the Hamid Karzai International Airport to escape following the Taliban 's recapture of power.
