After the fall of Kabul, multinational companies and various organizations returned from Afghanistan. “There was also a group of journalists and their families who were at serious risk of helping Facebook staff and close friends leave Kabul,” a Facebook source said. Facebook has thanked the Mexican government for its support. The Mexican government said on Wednesday that a group of Afghan nationals had arrived in Mexico City.
