these groups have often been at the receiving end of violence by armed groups in afghanistan due to religious and political differences rights groups say there has been a recent surge in targeted killings of women and religious minorities no group has yet claimed responsibility for this attack but there is a circle of blame among officials and fighter groups the taliban condemned the attack and denied any responsibility blaming eisel but president blame the armed groups saying the taliban have once again shown their own willingness to resolve the crisis peacefully and fundamentally as collating their legitimate war and violence. in a country already torn apart by decades of war his attack will no doubt lead to more fear more anger and parents scared to send their children to school.

occupied east jerusalem with israeli forces cracking down on palestinian protesters for a 2nd day the palestinian red crescent says at least 90 people were injured when armed police tried to claim as the gathering in the holiest night of ramadan. dozens of people mostly schoolgirls have been killed in multiple blasts outside their school in the afghan capital kabul president bush afghani's says the taliban were behind the attack the armed group says eisel is to blame. india's supreme court has set up a task force to ensure the delivery of medical oxygen across the country as criticism months over the government's response to the covert 900 search several states are now going into lockdown as officials try to bring the spiraling outbreak under control. a top u.s. fuel pipeline operator colonial's says it's shut its entire network after a cyber attack the company's network transports 2 and a half 1000000 barrels of field
5:18 am
a day through almost 9000 kilometers of pipes across the u.s. colonial says it took a systems offline to contain what it called a threat from hasn't said when operations are going to resume but it's launched an investigation into the attack well let's bring in jodi west species chief executive at global cyber risk and she's joining us by skype from washington d.c. good to have you with us on al-jazeera what's your understanding of how deep this hack has been. my understanding it is a very serious ransomware attack. the officials have initially concluded this had something to do with eastern european cyber gangs but of course nation states often cooperate with these criminals and we don't get the nation state is involved but it's a serious enough to check that it caused colonia to shut down its entire pipeline system and i'm sure part of that reason is because you don't know what's happening
5:19 am
within a skate a system like this there could be very serious disruptions or perhaps the perpetrator could actually begin in controlling the pipeline so shutting it down until they can determine what is going on i'm sure is part of this but the other part is be the sophistication of the ransomware and how far it is fred through the system it's not really known right now there you would think that networks like this would be well protected what does this tell us about the protection or indeed the skill of the hackers well the hackers are very skilled now and remember back in like 2016 there were a lot of sophisticated tools stolen from our national security agency and our central intelligence agency that were released. by the shadow brokers and by 7 of wiki leaks and this provided some most sophisticated cyber often see weapons to
5:20 am
everyone in the world including nation states and cyber criminals and terrorists so they have sophisticated tools and they hit next. made these ransomware acts of their very multi-pronged attacks they can come and they can look for your backup data delete the backup data they can correct data they can export trade a large amount of data there in a very stealth mode and then they can start encrypted data then they can demand a ransom to get a key to decrease the data or start demanding an extortion payment for them to give you the data they exploit traded back or at least to hear they will not close down the internet or send it to customers so this is probably a very complicated attack most of them recently have been and companies are really struggling with how to respond to them it's crippling them and given the nature of
5:21 am
the attack and given the impact that it clearly has one would have thought the companies would be investing huge amounts of money to protect these systems why these attacks still able to happen i'm assuming if that investment is being made if indeed it is. it's not and it's very pressed rating to me for years i have argued that the government should stay out of companies and not regulate private sector computers and computer networks and cybersecurity programs but i am as frustrated as many of us in this field companies have just refused to spend the money they need to spend on cyber security they will spin more in response than they ever would have in print in preparation and constructing and maintaining a strong security program but they just are not spending money the boards and senior executives are not paying attention to this and making sure they have
5:22 am
resilience and operations that starting to change i.d.c. give the study inaccurate the 1st few months of the pandemic that bad business resilience was down to number 7 and by june 2020 it was up to number one and that's the number one priority now for decision makers and i think a lot of it isn't the pandemic it's not coded it is ransomware attacks that is causing this and causing huge business interruption losses so companies are either going to happen spend the money or the government's going to come in and regulate is. good to have you knowledge is here we appreciate the benefit of your expertise in this thank you very much indeed i was happy to be here thank you letter for charges in parts of colombia as deliveries are caught up by hundreds of roadblocks set up during more than a week of anti-government protests things officers in the army have now been sent in to clear the blocks the proceso say their fight is far from over. he has more. a

reform since the start of the widespread enough times deadly street protests in the cities other groups in rural and provincial areas are also demanding action and poverty unemployment and police violence the roadblocks of produce shortages of food and gasoline the export of major commodities like coffee has been hard to compute. the government is deploying riot police in the army to lift the barricades all you look at. what colombia needs today is to get back to work to get vaccinated to open up opportunities and we're always open to listen to everyone and debated president says that lifting the roadblocks is the 1st step to start a negotiation with the protesters saying that they affect the rights of others but some farmers and tripper nurse here tell us that they support the strike the spite the losses like any other who owns a restaurant in town. we live off tourism and people have not been able to come we

capital to john by a russian defense minister sergei sure go meeting his tactic and killed his counterparts at a meeting of the collective security organization that's led by russia that seems to say something either about the complicity of russia or relative remove of russia from what's going on in central asia or maybe some other sinister interests being played out in moscow and that's the $1000000.00 question a statue of lenin in the cutest capital bishkek. the soviet union is no more but russia remains both kyrgyzstan and tajikistan's number one ally and rewards them if they do what moscow wants kyrgyzstan's relationship with russia has suffered in recent years analysts say the moscow is unhappy with a decade and a half of political instability including 3 revolutions and some say the kremlin is

concerned about the new president leaning too much towards its rival china president so that is just par off has for many killed is to conciliate sharif towards to stand after at least $34.00 of the estimated 50 people killed in the fighting were courteous but he needs russia's support to deescalate the situation and help find a lasting solution russia has called for calm and negotiations but some analysts say it's relatively weak response maybe because of what's happening in another of tajikistan's neighbors afghanistan but i thought look i guess i'm not going to show nato pulling out of afghanistan means the importance of his stand for russia is growing as you can stand as russia's 1st line of defense both kyrgyzstan to stand hosting russian military bases at one until he can stand as well important because russia understands that have to stand explodes because of spillover from
5:28 am
afghanistan then the whole region could follow this doesn't mean that as you can stand has the right to conduct what was a planned military operation on the characters borders and russia not outright condemning the curious flag flies over bishkek but many are wondering how kyrgyzstan until you can stand it can reach a lasting solution to their border dispute and whether their mutual ally can or indeed wants to help chance trafford al-jazeera bishkek. an out of control section of a chinese rocket is expected to crash into the ass in the next hour but no one seems to know exactly where it's going to land in june brown reports. 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
