This Afghan woman gave birth just after the evacuation plane landed at Ramstein Air Base in Germany. The base is one of the primary locations for people being flown out of Kabul, Afghanistan.
U.S. Air Mobility Command reported: During a flight from an Intermediate Staging Base in the Middle East, the mother went into labor and began having complications. The aircraft commander decided to descend in altitude to increase air pressure in the aircraft, which helped stabilize and save the mother’s life. Upon landing, Airmen from the 86th MDG came aboard and delivered the child in the cargo bay of the aircraft. The baby girl and mother were transported to a nearby medical facility and are in good condition.
And one social media comment asks an interesting question: Would the child be considered Afghan, German, or American?
