Dominic Dyer, one of Pen's supporters, confirmed to the Mirror that Pen has now landed back in the UK and all of the animals are safe. He video called his wife Kaisa Markhus from inside Kabul airport on Friday to tell her he had made it through with the animals - hours after the terror attack.

Pen previously clashed with Mr Wallace over his refusal to allow the evacuation of him, his animals and staff.
