ABC NEWS PRESENTS "FINAL HOURS, AMERICA'S LONGEST WAR," CHRONICLING AMERICA'S WITHDRAWAL FROM AFGHANISTAN, STREAMING ONLY ON HULU TONIGHT, AUG. 31
In the aftermath of the United States' withdrawal from Afghanistan, ABC News presents the documentary special "Final Hours, America's Longest War," chronicling the final moments the United States military spent in Afghanistan. The special will dive into the chaotic events of recent weeks, including the fall of Kabul to Taliban control, the evacuation efforts to get American citizens out of the country, the suicide bombing at Hamid Karzai International Airport that killed nearly 200, including 13 U.S. troops, and more. From the U.S. moving personnel out of its embassy to the desperate Afghans who clung to planes in hopes of fleeing the country, this program examines the shocking events that shook the world. It will feature interviews with the McCollum family, whose marine son, Lance Corporal Rylee, was killed in the suicide bombing; the Fokur family, who fled Afghanistan; Rina Amiri, who is an Afghan refugee and policy advisor that now helps fellow Afghans leave the country; journalist Bilal Sarway; former Army Ranger Jeriko Denman; chief global affairs correspondent and co-anchor of "This Week" Martha Raddatz; and senior foreign correspondent Ian Pannell. "Final Hours, America's Longest War" streams only on Hulu, beginning tonight, Aug. 31.
"Final Hours, America's Longest War" is produced by ABC News. Roxanna Sherwood is senior executive producer, and Eman Varoqua is executive producer.
