My heart sank this morning on hearing the horrid news of the evil and calculated attack perpetrated on the innocent and the brave at the Hamid Karzai International Airport. I am especially mindful of the reported 13 US Deference Force personnel who lost their lives providing a pathway to freedom for others.

This attack highlights the bravery of our own Defence Force personnel who have evacuated over 4,000 Australian citizens, visa holders and locally engaged employees from Afghanistan over the last 9 days.

Thank you to the men and women of the ADF, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and the Department of Home Affairs who have undertaken one of the largest airlifts in Australia’s history in dangerous and deteriorating circumstances.

My thoughts at this time are with those most impacted, their families and loved ones and the Afghan Hazara community living in Barker. I cannot imagine what they are going through at this time.
