James Heappey says Afghan guards will be evacuated but GardaWorld says only expat staff are involved
More than 100 guards at the British embassy in Kabul who had been told they were not eligible for UK government protection are to be evacuated from Afghanistan after all, a minister has said.
A source at their employer, GardaWorld, said however that expat staff were in the process of being evacuated, including some British employees, but that the situation had not changed for the Afghan guards.
