Five years ago today, 13 American service members were killed at Abbey Gate in Afghanistan. It was one of the darkest days in the history of our country — and it happened because of weak American leadership.
We will NEVER FORGET these heroes.

America must always remember the names of these heroes. But remembrance also demands accountability.
Last year, under President Trump’s leadership, this FBI—working alongside DOJ, CIA, and our international partners—apprehended and brought back Mohammad Sharifullah, an ISIS-K operative and key player in the attack. A federal jury has since convicted him of participating in a nine-year conspiracy to provide material support to ISIS-K.
Five years later, our promise remains unchanged:
We will remember the fallen.
We will stand with their families.
We will hunt those responsible—no matter where they hide or how long it takes.
