America told the Afghans who served alongside its troops, diplomats, and aid workers that it would protect them. This is the library that documents that promise, keeps score of it, and holds it up against the evidence.
AfghanEvac's special reports sit here beside the primary-source government record, from every public Afghan Special Immigrant Visa report to the oversight findings that shaped the program.
Everything sits in one place: AfghanEvac's own special reports, the coalition's impact, the government's primary-source record, and a direct line to the Afghanistan War Commission. Use the tabs above, or start with the guide below.
A series released across the fifth anniversary of the fall of Kabul. Each report stands on its own; together they form one continuous accounting of what was promised and what remains undone.
The umbrella of AfghanEvac's 2026 special-report series, released across the fifth anniversary of the fall of Kabul. It frames the whole record: what the United States promised its Afghan wartime allies, what it built to keep that promise, and where the commitment stands today. Read it first, then work through the individual reports below.
Traces the promise of protection itself: the statutory commitment Congress made to Afghans who served alongside U.S. forces, the vetting and durable-status architecture built to honor it, and how thoroughly applicants are screened before they ever arrive.
The data-driven accounting of Enduring Welcome: issuance by administration, the backlog of Chief-of-Mission-approved allies, processing time against the standard Congress set, and the 2025 shutdown that froze flights and visas. The core quantitative record of where the pipeline stands.
A coalition reckoning: how the United States and its partners accounted for the Afghans who worked beside them, country by country, and what closing the door costs, measured in allies still waiting and commitments left unmet.
A working reference on relief options and standards for the attorneys, caseworkers, and advocates handling active Afghan cases. Built to sit beside the special reports and turn their findings into practical guidance.
Beyond the policy record is the operational one. The AfghanEvac Impact Report accounts for the coalition's own work: the organizations and volunteers who moved allies through a system that too often stalled, the cases carried, and the people who reached safety because a coalition refused to let the promise lapse.
The coalition's accounting of outcomes, reach, and the work still ahead.

Congress created the Afghanistan War Commission to examine the strategic, diplomatic, and operational decisions of the war from 2001 to 2021, and to draw lessons the country can actually use. Its final report is due to the public before August 22, 2026. The people who lived the war have a place in that record, and the window to add to it is closing.
Allies, interpreters, partners, and families who saw the decisions and their consequences firsthand.
