Ask HN: Any HN users with ties to Afghanistan or adjacent regions?
I've just seen videos of wave after wave of people fleeing Kabul in any way they can. It prompted me to start this thread. Does anyone want to share their stories? How is your life being affected right now?

- phekunde 5y agoLook carefully at the map, at the extreme top of India :) Even though it does not direct touch India, that region is as volatile as any other terrorist region. Lot of infiltration happens from that area into India.
