UNDATED (AP) – President Joe Biden’s national security team has told the president that another terror attack is “likely” in Kabul, and that “maximum force protection” measures are being taken at the airport in the Afghan capital. White House press secretary Jen Psaki did not go into detail on the assessment Biden received from his team one day after an Islamic State suicide bomber killed 13 U.S. service members and scores of Afghans outside the airport. Psaki says the next few days of the mission to evacuate Americans and vulnerable Afghans fleeing Taliban rule “will be the most dangerous period to date.” Biden has said he intends to complete the evacuation by Tuesday’s deadline.
