In this episode, we uncover the harrowing ordeal faced by Afghan commandos trained and supported by British forces, whose relocation applications have been unjustly rejected by the UK government. Through an in-depth investigation by Lighthouse Reports alongside The Independent and Sky News, we reveal the devastating impact on these soldiers left behind under Taliban rule. The episode explores the close wartime partnership, troubling inconsistencies in official claims, and the urgent need for accountability and reform in the relocation process. We highlight the stories of bravery and the ongoing legal challenges for a fairer system, urging listeners to support transparency and justice for these abandoned allies.
