She described her situation as hopeless. She thought she was going to die in there. And she considers getting out of there a miracle.
As per her, the situation at the airport was chaotic. Thousands of people desperate to leave the country gathered there. She revealed that at one point a woman requested her to take her baby with her. She said that though the mother wanted her to take the baby with her, she couldn’t. She couldn’t separate the baby from the mother. And when the soldiers asked her if the baby was hers, she told them that it was not. She requested them to let the mother and the baby enter the plane otherwise they were going to die. But they declined, saying they could not.

She also commented on the Taliban’s new promises about women’s empowerment. She said she does not trust them and she is sure that they will go back to their old ways soon.
