Daily Mail: Escape from Kabul: Diplomats flee US Embassy in Chinook helicopters after setting documents on fire as Taliban fighters storm Afghan capital - in stark echoes of the Fall of Saigon 

 * Helicopter - believed to be US Air Force Chinook - seen flying over Kabul today from the US Embassy in Kabul 

* It comes as Taliban closes in on the Afghan capital with shots heard on outskirts before fighters stormed city 

* Around 3,000 US troops have been sent into city to aid with US evacuation, while British troops also deployed 

* It is believed around 500 British staff needed to be evacuated and by Saturday the number was in 'the tens' 

This is the moment US diplomats are seen being evacuated from Kabul as Taliban forces stormed the Afghan capital. 

In a scene mirroring that of Saigon at the end of the Vietnam war, a US Air Force helicopter was seen taking off from the US embassy earlier today.

The Chinook helicopter was seen taking to the skies above the city - just like in 1975 when a US Marine helicopter was seen evacuating embassy staff from Vietnamese capital.
