The Americans abandon the base during the night, slightly ahead of schedule. This marks the end of a 20-year military intervention, which began immediately after the events of September 11, 2001, following the Taliban&#8217;s proven involvement in providing cover for Al-Qaeda, which had organized the attacks. In two decades of conflict, the allied coalition has suffered 3,562 deaths, including 2,420 Americans, 456 Britons, 159 Canadians, 89 French, 57 Germans, 53 Italians, and others; 3,937 contractors have also died. The Taliban have suffered more than 51,000 deaths, and Al-Qaeda more than 2,000. Finally, the Islamic State (ISIL) has also suffered more than 2,400 deaths in the conflict.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bagram Air Base, Afghanistan.
