Every Afghan perceived to have ties with the UK is in danger of reprisals now that the Taliban have taken over.

The UK government has recently made a u-turn over embassy guards hired through an international security firm, but this u-turn only seems to apply to those guards, rather than employees of UK organisations in general.

Other countries have already taken such steps: for example, the US has widened its Refugee Admissions Program to include employees of US NGOs.
