Pentagon explaining that Taliban outside the airport are enforcing American admissions policy and being given lists of names(!) by the military.

From Blinken and Psaki's comments today, the closest we can get to numbers: 82,300 people flown since Aug 14. "At least" 4,500 US citizens, plus immediate family. Unknown number of green card holders, third country nationals, and US citizens not on the State Department's list

Binken's numbers mention "coalition flights" so presumably the 82,300 total includes all the evacuees for western countries operating in Afghanistan right now.
