On August 15, as the Taliban were entering the capital Kabul, an Air Force plane rescued 823 Afghan civilians - including 183 children.
That number was the largest recorded passenger ever taken by a Boeing C-17 Globemaster III - a four-engine aircraft that has been transporting people from Hamid Karzai International Airport.
The aircraft, which was developed in the 1980s and first took off in the 1990s, is now used by countries around the world to transport troops, cargo and sometimes to rescue people at risk.
One Afghan woman even gave birth to her baby girl in the air inside a C-17 on Sunday. She experienced labor pains on the way to Ramstein's military base, and a doctor-assisted her in delivering on the plane's luggage compartment.
According to Air Force One's record of this aircraft, it is designed to carry a load of up to 77,516 kg.
Military tanks, trucks and even, M1 Abrams missiles can all enter it and be transported.
The Ghub states have provided their military bases for use by the United States and other nations to transport civilians in need of rescue from Afghanistan.
The United States was forced to temporarily suspend its rescue operations on Friday when its rescue facilities for rescued Afghans received people beyond their capacity.
The UK has promised to take 20,000 Afghan refugees over a long period of time, with Canada planning to take the same number.
However, many countries - including the United States and Germany - have not yet said exactly how many refugees they will take from Afghanistan.
Officers are trying to intervene to rescue people. A Pentagon report on Sunday said the United States would use 18 commercial aircraft to help transport people abroad.
