The DOD said that they have pledged money to be paid for the family and has asked the department of state to arrange relocation to the United States for the family members who are interested to.

The US DOD then called the attack a tragic mistake.

The drone attack was conducted on the last day of the US evacuation mission and days after ISIS-K affiliates carried out the attack at the gate of Kabul International Airport that killed over a hundred civilians and 13 US marines.
