With the US forces withdrawing from Afghanistan a few events stick out to me. Missile-striking a man and IIRC his children because he was doing door to door deliveries of meals or water to people who needed aid. The attack at the Kabul airport that killed I think north of a hundred people, but all Western media talked about was ThE tHiRtEeN as they wanted to wave the bloody shirt over the service members that were killed. That also may have involved occupation forces firing into the crowd, which they definitely would want to cover up.

I remember our media class going after Brandon for pulling out, but hey!, this was already negotiated, set up under Trump 1st term, and it's good to end a 20 year occupation! Plus the ANA was collapsing and Taliban rapidly advancing territory so what even could the US and Afghan govt have done. And yeah sanctioning Afghanistan after the withdrawal is just damning people to starve.
