A source tell me that people are going to the Serena Hotel in Kabul to consult with government agents about evacuation from Aghanistan.

A spokesman for the State Department said no U.S. government official is at the hotel.

#EmilyPosts 1/5
My source (a SIV) was at the Serena Hotel yesterday He said that Qatar has reps there with “a list from the U.S. State Department.” The agent told him that they are only helping U.S. passport holders. He said they won’t help legal permanent residents (LPR) in Afghanistan. 2/5
Since he is a SIV and doesn’t fall in the categories that Pres. Biden and Secretary of State Blinken are prioritizing, he did not get any help. 3/5
"They told me if you want to add your name on the list, you should contact State Department of USA. They will will add your name and will send it to Doha department in Kabul."- SIV 4/5

The people who the U.S. abandoned in Afghanistan are trapped.

They are being hunted by an evil group of Taliban which wants revenge on Americans and our allies.

They have no way to escape.

American Snuck into Afghanistan to Save His Sisters

Asks State Department for a diplomatic solution to overland escape. New #EmilyPosts here: emilypostnews.com/p/american-snu…
Ali said he was shaking when he saw the Taliban at the border checkpoint of Uzbekistan and Afghanistan.

Just two days earlier, he was with his wife in their Connecticut home.
“In our society, it’s the brother's job to take care of the sister,” he told me by phone from Kabul, where he’s been since Aug. 27.

He’s on a desperate mission to try to get his sisters out of Afghanistan. #EmilyPosts

"The invitation is open for NGOs, for advocates, for members of Congress, for lawmakers to reach out to us if they are familiar with an American in Afghanistan who has not been in touch with us and who may want to leave."- @StateDeptSpox
For American citizens or Green Card holders (LPR) in Afghanistan, call @StateDept at (833) 741-2777 or (606) 260-4379. Or email AfghanistanACS at state dot gov
I know that none of this helps the SIV holders and our Afghan allies who are being targeted by Taliban.

Single, American Woman ‘Trapped’ by Taliban in Kabul

The @StateDept and @SenAlexPadilla don't respond to her, so she emailed me:

“You are the only hope that I am left with. I hope that I get a response and help from you.”

“I’m a U.S. Citizen and terrified and desperate to leave this country, which is now under the rule of the cruel Taliban,” she wrote to me in the first email

#EmilyPosts #ProjectExodus
Her brother and sister in law disappeared a month ago.
“There is no information about them, if they are alive or not. So I am left here as a guardian to my nephews.”

She has American passport but needs to get her three nephews with Afghanistan passports out of the country.

The Taliban cut off internet and mobile in Kabul today. IDk the purpose but it terrified the Americans and Afghan allies who were suddenly alone in hiding and cut off from any contact.
An Aghan ally who I email with asked me to share this message:

"Hi Emily,

Pray for your safety and your pen to write the pain of the Afghan people.

Kabul and the resident's lives are in danger day by day.
See what happened today in Kabul.... (1/2)
"The internet signals were cut-off and what’s this terror.

We’re in the big worse situation in life and can’t do anything, we (me & my family) beg you and from your team to please help us to out with a safe passage."(2/2)

Well, this is from @StateDept:
Special Immigrant Visas (SIVs): For information regarding the SIV process, including who to contact for specific inquiries please visit: travel.state.gov/content/travel…
BUT
The catch is that if you are applying for a SIV and you are in Afghanistan (which is everyone) then you can't get interviewed because -- as you know-- the US shut down its embassy in Kabul.
From @state "If you would like to transfer your immigrant visa case to a U.S. embassy or consulate outside of Afghanistan that processes immigrant visas, please submit your request to the National Visa Center at NVCSIV@state.gov - including your name, date of birth & case number"
