This video is going to haunt the world forever. Desperate crowds&nbsp; had thronged the Kabul airport since Monday morning after the Taliban took control of the capital city of Kabul on Sunday after the&nbsp; Afghan president Ashraf Ghani and his close aides escaped.

A foreign journalist sharing the video clip said in the post, &ldquo;crowd at #Kabul&#39;s Hamid Karzai Intn&rsquo;l Airport rushing towards the terminal this morning amid the sound of automatic gunfire. Terrifying!&rdquo;</p>
