The State Department on Sunday told Americans in Kabul that their best chance of survival is to hide.

"The security situation in Kabul is changing quickly including at the airport. There are reports of the airport taking fire; therefore we are instructing U.S. citizens to shelter in place," the U.S. Embassy in Afghanistan said in a statement published on its website on Sunday.

The embassy then told everyone that even as the Taliban took over Kabul, it is vital to have the proper paperwork in order.

I think the Russians and the Chinese will tell the Taliban to hold the Americans and Europeans hostage to ransom demands for reparations for 20 years of unjustified war against them.
