Malliotakis helps Brooklyn family escape Afghanistan
U.S. Rep. Nicole Malliotakis helped a Brooklyn family escape from Kabul, Afghanistan, during the U.S. withdrawal from the country.
Malliotakis told this paper that she was contacted by a Gravesend man whose wife and three children – ages 1, 3 and 7 – were visiting Afghanistan when the withdrawal began.
“They’re obviously desperate to evacuate safely,” Malliotakis said. “My office worked with the State Department and we were able to get them on a military flight to Qatar yesterday. That’s where they are now.”
