Abstract

The article reports that over $3 billion in cash has been loaded onto planes and flown out of Afghanistan over the previous three-year period. U.S. investigators suspect a sizable fraction has been diverted from Western aid projects and North Atlantic Treaty Organization contracts, and sent to the overseas accounts of Afghan government officials.
