Hundreds of interpreters who worked with British and US troops in Afghanistan are desperately seeking asylum in the countries they helped during the war. Many say they've been threatened by the Taliban for their work with NATO troops. With the UK campaign in Afghanistan now over, Harry Fear reports on the feeling that the British army has quickly forgotten the allies they left behind.

The interpreters who worked alongside American and NATO forces in Afghanistan are among our bravest and most loyal allies. They played an essential role in sourcing intelligence and educating Western troops about the local culture. Now they're in danger of being abandoned.

This emotional video is the shortened version of their story told by Phil Johndrow.
