(AP Photo\/Rahmat Gul)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN Newsroom<br \/>UPDATED 8:58 AM PT \u2013 Thursday, July 8, 2021<\/h5>\n<p>Joe Biden is set to address the ongoing troop withdrawal in Afghanistan as the Department of Defense announces removal is 90 percent complete.<\/p>\n<p>According to the U.S. Central Command, it has transferred more than 17,000 pieces of military equipment for disposition. The U.S. military has also transferred seven facilities over to the Afghan forces.<\/p>\n<p>This comes as the Taliban is gaining control of the ground with Afghan troops fleeing to neighboring Tajikistan. Afghan officials insist they have the situation under control as their fight with the Taliban continues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose that went to Tajikistan are coming back and are, once again, going to be in the service of their people and defense of people, in defense of Fayzabad,\u201d stated Afghani National Security Adviser Hamdullah Mohib. \u201cPeople are standing. It\u2019s war. There is pressure; sometimes things work in our way and sometimes they don\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Biden\u2019s messy Middle East troop withdrawal has hit another snag as looters ransack Bagram Air Base. Afghan officials said the U.S. military left behind 3.5 million items in their abrupt departure. These items range from bottles of water to cars, laptops and even small weapons as well as ammunition.<\/p>\n<p>Dozens of looters reportedly raided the facility once Americans left and made off with some of that equipment. This has prompted concern that U.S. intelligence and weapons may have fallen into the wrong hands.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Afghanistan?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Afghanistan<\/a>\u2013 Dozens of&nbsp;looters&nbsp;ransacked the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Bagram?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Bagram<\/a> Air Base in&nbsp;Afghanistan&nbsp;early on Friday in the hours between when U.S. troops left the premises covertly under cover of night and Afghan forces took control.<br \/>\ud83d\udcf8 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/aMIEqC7dtv\">pic.twitter.com\/aMIEqC7dtv<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Mete Sohtao\u011flu (@metesohtaoglu) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/metesohtaoglu\/status\/1412781874196451338?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">July 7, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Pentagon said the exact time of the troop withdrawal was not given due to security reasons.
