During the flight from Kabul, an Afghan woman gave birth to a baby girl on the plane. According to media reports, both the mother and the baby girl are fine.
According to Al-Arabiya.net, the US Air Force said that people were being evacuated from Kabul by a US military plane during the evacuation mission when the woman encountered maternity during the flight, the captain of the plane said. This was done to increase the air pressure in the plane and thus helped to save the life of the mother.
