BREAKING: Trump offers condolences on the death of US service members in Kabul

"Melania and I send our deepest condolences to the families of our brilliant and brave Service Members whose duty to the US meant so much to them. Our thoughts are also with the families of the innocent civilians who died today in the savage Kabul attack," said President Trump.

"This tragedy should have never been allowed to happen, which makes our grief even deeper and more difficult to understand. May God Bless the USA," President Trump concluded.

Earlier in the day, after two explosions occurred at the airport in Kabul, the Pentagon confirmed US casualties, and Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby said that this was a "coordinated attack."

Two explosions went off at the Kabul airport in Afghanistan Thursday morning. This after US state department warnings to Americans not to travel to the Kabul airport, and to leave if they were stranded outside the gates. The second explosion was reported shortly after the first. It was reported that there were at least 13 casualties and many more wounded. At least three US servicemen were among those injured in the attack.
