Kabul airport has been the scene of chaos as desperate Afghan civilians attempt to secure passage out of the country following the Taliban's sudden seizure of power. A number of people have been reportedly killed at the airport amid desperate attempts to flee Afghanistan. Shocking video captured from the airport in Kabul appears to show the moment two people fell from the undercarriage of a departing flight.

       The short clip shows a large aircraft taking off from the runway at Kabul airport.

       As the plane begins to lift steepling into the air and gain altitude, what appears to be a person can be seen falling from the fuselage.

       The figure, believed to be a stowaway, is followed second later by a second Afghan who also plummets to their death.
