According to reports from Britain's “Independent” and “The Times” on October 14, the British government finally admitted that the former elite Afghan special forces were directly employed by the British government and received their salaries from the British side. The media previously broke the news that after the withdrawal of British troops from Afghanistan, these soldiers applied to settle in the UK, but the vast majority of them were rejected. On October 14 of this year, Luke Pollard, a senior British Ministry of Defense official, admitted to the House of Commons that although the previous British Conservative government denied it, the Ministry of Defense under the new Labour government discovered through an examination that these Afghan soldiers were indeed directly employed by the British government. Pollard also revealed that more than 2,000 applications from them to emigrate to the UK have been rejected by the British government and are being re-examined.
