Two explosions outside the Kabul airport Thursday injured at least three U.S. Marines and others, as the U.S. attempts to continue its evacuations out of Taliban-controlled Afghanistan.  

World leaders have adjusted planned operations in the face of the attacks, which terrorist group ISIS-K is suspected to be responsible for.

An official told Fox News that President Biden has been briefed about the explosion as the White House prepares to speak publicly about the attacks. A planned meeting between Biden and Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett has been postponed.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel cancelled an upcoming trip to Israel, where she was expected to join Bennett for a cabinet meeting on Sunday. The trip was cancelled due to “the tense situation in Afghanistan,” according to a government spokesperson. 

Merkel will remain in Germany to monitor the last stages of the evacuation of German troops, which will end Thursday. 

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, meanwhile, chaired an emergency security meeting with the Cabinet Office Briefing Rooms (COBR) after he was updated on the explosions, Reuters reported.

“The Prime Minister has been updated on the situation at the airport in Kabul and will chair a COBR (security meeting) later this afternoon,” a No. 10 Downing St. spokesperson said.

Johnson spoke to reporters following the meeting, condemning the attack as “despicable,” according to The Guardian.  

“We extend our condolences both to the United States of America and the people of Afghanistan,” Johnson said. He stressed that Britain will continue its evacuation plan “up until the last moment.”

“We will also closely coordinate on the issues to be dealt with in the near future, military cooperation, migration issues and cooperate with the UN Security Council, because in the coming days and weeks we will have to define the course of the mandate of the United Nations,” Macron said. “The coming hours will remain extremely dangerous in Kabul and around the airport.”
