ENGLEWOOD, Colo. – Four days, four planes, and help from a U.S. senator from Arkansas is what it took to get 29-year-old Englewood, Colorado, resident Haroon Zarify, his wife, and two daughters out of Kabul, Afghanistan.

“I am here today, safe because of the people who heard my voice and prayed for me and my family,” Zarify said.

One week ago, Zarify begged for help getting his family to safety while he was stuck in Kabul.

Zarify said shortly after he told his story on Denver7, U.S. Senator Tom Cotton, R-Arkansas, reached out to him via social media.
