Afghans living in Kabul have awoken to their first full day under Taliban rule. Desperate scenes have been witnessed at Kabul's international airport as hundreds of people attempt leave Afghanistan. Eyewitnesses have told the Â鶹Éç that at least two civilians have been killed. Â鶹Éç correspondent, Anbarasan Ethirajan, has been monitoring developments from the Indian capital, Delhi. He says there is an "uneasy calm" over the city as people wait to see how events will unfold, and apprehension regarding Taliban intentions.
