The US military's pullout from Afghanistan is progressing at a fast pace, with US Central Command (USCENTCOM) announcing on 15 June that it has already completed more than 50% of the entire retrograde process.

The command noted in a statement that since US President Joe Biden's decision to withdraw troops, equipment, and other personnel from Afghanistan, the Pentagon has retrograded “the equivalent of approximately 611 C-17 [transport aircraft] loads” of material out of Afghanistan and turned over more than 14,379 pieces of equipment to the US Defense Logistics Agency for disposition.

Moreover, the Unites States has officially handed over six facilities to the Afghan Ministry of Defense, said the command, adding that it anticipates additional transfers of bases and military assets in the future, “which will support the ANDSF [Afghan National Defense and Security Forces]/GIRoA [Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan] as they work to stabilise and defend their nation”.
