American citizens are not being blocked from entering the U.S.-held airport in Kabul, Afghanistan, a U.S. official said Monday.

“Claims that American citizens have been turned away or denied access to HKIA by Embassy staff or US Forces are false,” Ross Wilson, the U.S. ambassador to Afghanistan, said in a statement.
