As indicated previously, it looks like some time on Friday when the UK closes its gates and pulls out.

Harrowing struggle for Afghan refugees to reach Kabul airport, British commander says
The British officer in charge of the evacuation from Kabul has told of “harrowing and extreme conditions” faced by refugees attempting to reach the airport, while UK forces are increasingly fearful of a terrorist attack.
Brigadier Dan Blanchford said the rescue mission was “working pretty well” once people reached the processing centre but acknowledged those trying to reach the airport were struggling through “desperate conditions” as the
Taliban step up attacks on people fleeing.
Defence sources believe there are about 2,000 people on the Afghan relocation programme still be to be flown to Britain before the evacuation has to end in the next 24 to 48 hours.
While the government is confident about bringing home those at the airport, with 2,000 now leaving every day, officials accept that some still in Taliban-controlled areas will be left behind.…..
British troops are living out of rucksacks at the airport in order to maximise the number of refugees who can be put on flights. Equipment has already began to be flown home so that the civilian airlift can go on as long as possible before efforts turn to packing up the British military presence.
Troops are said to be down to their last rations with only the clothes they are wearing and day-packs so that time and flight capacity can be focused on Afghans. However, there is an acknowledgement that the airlift will have to end some days before the final departure of western troops so that the military departure can be organised.
Lord Richards of Herstmonceux, a former head of the armed forces, said operations would have to end this week with some people “almost certainly” left behind.
“I would say 48 hours and then in some instances, I’ve no doubt they will sneak others in who arrived late along with our own people,” he told
Today on BBC Radio 4. “But that’s the position in which the West and Nato have now gotten themselves, sadly.”
