Gen. Austin S. Miller, who was the longest serving officer to oversee NATO and US forces in Afghanistan, has transferred control to two US generals.
Gen. Miller steps down as the two-decades long US-led military mission in the war-ravaged country comes to end in less than two months.
It comes as Taliban militants seize more territory throughout Afghanistan.
Miller transferred responsibility for U.S. Forces Afghanistan to Gen. Kenneth F. McKenzie in a ceremony held in Afghan capital Kabul on Monday.
