Dominic Raab: #UK #intelligence said #Kabul ‘unlikely’ to fall this year
He told MPs on the Commons foreign affairs select committee: “The central assessment that we were operating to, and it was certainly backed up by the #JIC (joint intelligence committee) and the military, is that the most likely, the central proposition, was that given the troop withdrawal by the end of August, you’d see a steady deterioration from that point and it was unlikely Kabul would fall this year.”
