Additional Explosions in Kabul, Massive Blast at Airport

New unconfirmed reports of explosions in Kabul, Afghanistan include a massive explosion at the Karzai International Airport where U.S. and allied military are evacuating Afghans and Americans.

The blast at the airport is believed to have been either a vehicle-born improvised explosive device (VBIED) – a car/truck bomb – or controlled detonations by allied personnel destroying equipment.

When asked by a reporter, White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki deferred the question to the Pentagon. Unfortunately, the Department of Defense did not schedule a Pentagon briefing for Thursday and has not commented on the blast(s).

Neither explanation has been confirmed by officials.
