7:18 pm
point according to eyewitnesses there were there was a there were students who were trying to run away crying and calling for their mothers there is some extremely graphic footage that has been coming out from the area of the attack with bodies lying next to each other with bodies being put one of almost on top of another in an area that could be either part of building or part of a hospital and dozens have been transferred in hospitals across kabul like you mentioned the taliban has. condemned the attack and it has blamed eisel for it and we have to remember that this attack happened in western kabul in dust which is an area that is predominantly has predominantly shia and in recent years there have been many attacks in that area that schools have been targeted gyms have been targeted and most of the times it has been i saw
7:19 pm
that has claimed an attack this story is still developing but i can tell you is that was driving through kabul the entire city tonight is numb after this attack as it comes only days after a massive truck bomb exploded in. right next to a guest house where dozens of high school students doreen were staying waiting to take their university entrance exams back to you just one more for you feel you all have you with us what has the government said about this attack if anything at all . i haven't really seen anything from the government but for sure they will condemn it. probably they will somehow blame the taliban because in that taliban statement that was issued a little while ago the taliban's most spokesman not only blamed i so but also said and i quote here that i still operates under the auspices of the kabul
7:20 pm
administration this is how they call the government of kabul also let me tell you we were in logar the other day we did speak with the governor of logar and he told us that they have intelligence that most of the attacks that are happening in kabul are being planned in low guard because logar shares a small border with pakistan and that's from where he they have intelligence them they say that's where for foreign fighters come and they collaborated with the taliban and this is how they planned attacks here in kabul which is only an hour's drive from logan so again thank you so much for your country for reporting from kabul the scottish national party is hope of securing a majority of the country's parliament tang's in the balance several key seats are yet to be declared the party leader nicola sturgeon wants to seek a 2nd referendum on scottish independence if it gets the seats the u.k.
7:21 pm
prime minister boris johnson says a 2nd vote would be irresponsible and reckless scots rejected independence by a 10 point margin in 2014 jonah how is in edinburgh he says the s.n.p. looks set to push for a referendum. it is still just about possible for the s.n.p. the scottish national party to secure an outright majority even if by only one seat it is more likely that they will but this election would have returned a majority for independence with the s.n.p. bolstered by the pro independence greens 1st minister s.n.p. leader nicolas sturgeon made comments in the last 24 hours making it abundantly clear what she intends to do with that majority she will govern this country she said to the pandemic in 2 economic recovery and then at some point after that offer the country she said the choice of a brighter future in other words independence from the u.k. the plan seems to be that at some point in the next 2 or 3 years she will use that majority to legislate in the scottish parliament here for
7:22 pm
a 2nd referendum to take place it would then be for the government of westminster boris johnson to respond either to agree to it which seems highly unlikely or negotiate some sort of settlement short of independence or as he has suggested he might take scoffing to the supreme court on the basis that this parliament doesn't have the power to legislate for constitutional change which seems clear in all of this is that the drive for independence is very much back on track as a result of this election and set to dominate the politics both sides of the border for years to come the un says aid convoys to the tigre a region in ethiopia are being blocked leaving thousands without humanitarian relief and hundreds malnourished now after 6 months of conflicts one of the country's top religious leaders has spoken out against what he describes as genocide to grey zone has more. the ethiopian government has been fighting the tigre a people's liberation front since november the conflict in the northern to grey

7:26 pm
don't know where it will land much of the 23 tons of remnants from the rocket is expected to burn up when it reenters the atmosphere but some pieces could fall anywhere on earth adrian brown reports from hong kong. china's space program has traveled a long way very quickly as it races to catch up with other nations but as the rockets and what they carry get bigger so to the debris they leave behind. more than a week ago a chinese long march 5 rocket was launched from heinen island carrying part of the country's 1st permanent space station. after its separation from the maggio the rocket began to orbit the earth in an ump planned trajectory as it slowly lost altitude now a 30 meters section is hurtling towards earth a 29000 kilometers an hour the u.s. military is tracking its progress we don't have
7:27 pm
a plan to shoot the rocket there were hopeful that that it will land then in a place where it. harm anyone hopefully in the ocean or someplace like that under international guidelines rockets are supposed to return to earth in a controlled way but that's not happening this time i'm afraid of the remaining pocket of the rocket is right now without control but it has its trajectory and it has its old process re entering into the atmosphere and hopefully it will lead naturally without causing any damage or injury china makes no secret about its space ambitions over the next 18 months at least 10 more launches a planned to support its space station program here on earth cold. politics means that china can cooperate with other countries in space that's because the united
7:28 pm
states continues to bar china from participating in the international space station also backed by other countries who have relations with beijing right now. china wants to become a major space power by 2030 and has demonstrated this in recent years with visits to the moon the launch of a long crude probe to mars and now the beginnings of its 1st fully operational space station adrian brown al jazeera hong kong. dan polanco is a professor of astrophysics at the university of warrick he says scientists really cannot say where this will land but it's extremely unlikely to injure anyone there are predictions right now where it's going to. the areas or so large that it really could most anywhere or truck. so the contradictions are somewhere in there using and probably a 1000 miles away from new zealand but really that's just an approximate location
7:29 pm
and it could be anywhere from well from a trade to. water to china itself i really don't know because it all depends on the state the atmosphere at that time and and the orientation of the rocket when it hits you atmosphere and things like that so normally when you launch into low earth orbit he use of a booster that doesn't actually attain sufficient the last 3 to go into orbit itself so you would launch it in a safe mode east coast of the u.s. and the rocket would just fall into the atlantic in this case it was launching a large part for the 1st part of the charlie space station and so it had to have to be a big rocket to get that large part into orbit and for ever reason it managed to tie in just about the last the to going to war with itself but the although it's reached is a very little shuttle and so what that means is that it ends up brushing into the
7:30 pm
atmosphere for a part that which slows it down slightly slightly and so consequently the orbiter carries or quickly. kind of again the headlines on al jazeera dozens of people have been killed in multiple boss in afghanistan according to the interior ministry that happened here a school in western kabul the taliban has condemned the attack and things i saw tell you a controversy has more from the afghan capital. the incident happened at 530 local kabul time that's the time when the afternoon shift of foss cools is ending the students are finishing their classes and that was a girls' school and there is no school buses here to take them home so at that time the streets outside of school are packed with students going home that.
