All US and coalition troops have left Bagram airfield, the largest US military base in Afghanistan, one of the country’s top defence official said on Friday.
The base, located north of the capital, Kabul, had been a centre of US military operations for nearly two decades.
With the withdrawal of the US forces from the base, the Afghan forces will be in charge of defending it against Taliban attacks.
However, the Afghan Defence Ministry has not responded to requests for comments.
US President, Joe Biden, had announced that the country’s troops would withdraw from Afghanistan by September 11.
Other NATO countries contributing to the international forces are also withdrawing their forces.
German forces fully withdrew from their main base in northern Balkh province of Afghanistan on Tuesday.
