For an afghan, he looks very gangu.

I think he's Hazara or Uzbek.
Edit: he's Hazara according to the nytimes.

 

[PAKISTANFOREVER]

I think he's Hazara or Uzbek.

Definitely not a Pathan or Pushtun.

 

[_NOBODY_]

I think he's Hazara or Uzbek.

Hazaras don't look like that.

 

[Gangetic]

Hazaras don't look like that.

They don't?

"On top of being a pilot, he is Hazara, a member of an ethnic minority that has been repeatedly attacked by the Taliban and the Islamic State in Afghanistan."

Hazara's Turkic features are quite prominent which is something I don't see here, anyways the pilot's ethnicity is irrelevant.

I guess the US personal who trained him to fight the very culprits he is running away from, wouldn't be too excited to see him run to safety while their own comrades are left to face the music.

 

[Respect4Respect01]

bro that also proves that these people are not loyal to their own country, they helped the invaders and now when Afg is completely ruined people like him will enjoy their lives abroad.
Same thing happens in Pakistan, if you are willing to abuse Pakistan armed forces and Islam then western media turns you into a superhero, a rich superhero.

USA should get ready for the flood of Afghans trying to get visas.
