Sweden’s Afghan Evacuation: A Struggle for Scale and Response Sweden has been criticized for its handling of the Afghanistan evacuation. The Swedish government says that it is doing everything possible to save as many people as possible. However, many Swedes are unhappy with the slow pace and limited number of places available on evacuation flights. This has led to frustration among those who have been waiting for a chance to leave. According to Swedish authorities, around 400 Swedes and Afghans are currently being held in Kabul's Hamid Karzai International Airport while they await transportation to Sweden. The government says that it is working closely with the US military, which has been providing security at the airport, but many people feel that more should be done. There have also been reports of difficulties faced by those who want to leave due to lack of documentation and language barriers. Criticism of the Swedish government's handling of the evacuation efforts has been growing in recent days. Many are calling for a more effective plan to be put in place. See article on SVT News.
