Aug 29 (Reuters) - The United States and allies are hurrying to evacuate as many people from Afghanistan as possible before an Aug. 31 deadline. The combined effort has evacuated about 113,500 people since Aug. 14, the day before the Taliban entered Kabul, the White House said on Friday.

There were still about 350 U.S. citizens in Afghanistan trying to leave the country, a State Department spokesman said.
