    Up to 800 Afghans squeezed into the transport machines. The main thing is to get away from here.

A woman from Afghanistan gave birth to a baby in an American evacuation machine. Her labor began on the way to the US base in Ramstein in Germany, as the US Air Force transport command announced on Sunday. Because she had complaints, the pilot of the C-17 transport plane lowered the flight altitude, which increased the air pressure in the cabin. The maneuver helped save her life.

After landing in Ramstein, Palatinate, the woman gave birth to a girl in the hold of the machine with the help of soldiers. Mother and child are doing well, they said.
