According to the Pentagon, U.S. troops are moving to Afghanistan in rapid speed "as we speak," in in response to "deeply concerning" Taliban takeover. The Taliban is trying to isolate Kabul, but the city is "not in an imminent threat environment," according to the Pentagon. U.S. troops could possibly be "going into harm's way" in Afghanistan and will have the right of self-defense. The Pentagon will not say if moving troops into Afghanistan is a combat mission or not.
