Afghanistan: Baby lost in Kabul evacuation is reunited with family

     

A baby boy separated from his parents in the chaos of the US evacuation of Afghanistan has finally been reunited with his family.
The Taliban had just seized control of the country in August and many Afghans were desperately trying to flee.

Two-month-old Sohail Ahmadi was handed to an American soldier over a fence, to protect him from the crush as thousands pushed to get into Kabul airport.

But once his family were inside, Sohail was nowhere to be found.

After a frantic but futile search for the infant, his father Mirza Ali Ahmadi, who had worked as a security guard at the US embassy, mother Suraya and their four other children were put on an evacuation flight to the US.

For months they had no idea where their young son was..More Bbc
