Protests against the Taliban turned deadly as the insurgents-turned-rulers of Afghanistan shot into crowds in two cities. In Kabul, the airlift of American, allied and Afghan civilians continues as more American troops land at the airport and desperate crowds remain outside. Jane Ferguson reports from Kabul -- with the support of the Pulitzer Center -- about the fear and hopelessness in Afghanistan. PBS NewsHour is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders
