United Airlines said late Sunday it is rerouting some flights to avoid Afghanistan airspace after insurgents took control of the presidential palace in Kabul as U.S.-led forces departed and Western nations scrambled on Monday to evacuate their citizens.

“Moreover due to the dynamic nature of the situation we have begun routing affected flights around Afghanistan airspace”
a United spokeswoman said in a statement.
The changes also impacts several of United’s U.S. to India flights.
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration in July imposed new flight restrictions over Afghanistan for U.S. airlines and also other U.S. operators.
