Afghan interpreter begs PM Boris Johnson for 'pathway to safety'

An Afghan interpreter who worked for the British army has begged the UK government to evacuate him and his family from Afghanistan.

Ahmed - not his real name - said he received permission to come to the UK last week, but a day later the Taliban seized control of the capital, Kabul.

He told the BBC's Lucy Manning that he was now in hiding and would "face death" if the Taliban found him.
