8:06 am
because that's what our rescue team tells us. they are doing, they have hope, and we're standing with them. they are working tirelessly. they are passionate about this. they are dedicated to finding people in the rebels. the mayor also says more than 100 people have been accounted for at least 30 rescued throughout the night. family and friends of those still unaccounted for have been flooding this family reunification center. desperate to find any news on their loved ones. so we're hoping that she is one of the hospitals. we just don't know when we're going to hear from among the missing or dozens of citizens of latin american countries like argentina, venezuela and paraguay on friday. but i was 1st lady, savannah lopez, mo data traveled to florida. her sister and other relatives are among the missing surf side is also home to a large orthodox jewish community. at least,
8:07 am
20 of its members are believed to be missing as well. search and rescue efforts have been hampered by bad weather and flooding. get the side of the wreckage. one of many factors complicating the identification of victims at the family reunification center nearby loved ones are being asked to submit dna samples, hoping to facilitate the process. authorities on the scene say the priority remains, search and rescue. once that concludes the investigation into what may have caused the collapse will begin in earnest. we've had people working down in surfside, ab search and rescue non stop all through the night. it's a very, very difficult situation. the st. the spoke with president joe biden earlier, the president offered whatever federal assistance is needed and also emotional support to the families looking for answers. it's a tough, tough time. there's so many people waiting. are they alive? will they be, will have to this,
8:08 am
our heart goes out to them. as the rescue mission continues, the question remains how long before this becomes a recovery operation? kenny had that as either surf side, florida well, william, coca missed the director of the master of civil engineering program at the university of kansas. he explains that some of the possible causes of the collapse . when you look at the video, you see the you see the different floors coming down almost like there's they remain aligned with each other. so there's still a space between them and then they start to start to pile up at the bottom. so what that tells me is something happened at the bottom floor that caused the building to start to come down. it wasn't something at the top that pushed it down. it could be several things for this building. it, it, it is close to the ocean so. so there were some discussions about maintenance issues, about water, possibly getting in, if it got in and it probably carried some salt with it,
8:09 am
and salt is very bad for concrete because it causes the rebar to corrode. so corrosion is a possibility. another possibility that's been mentioned is settlement the discussion has been settlement in the matter of millimeters and then a few millimeters. a settlement is not going to cause a problem. but if parts of the building settle at different rates than other parts, that puts a force on the beams in the columns. so that could cause the beams or columns to fail. busy if the, if the ground was supporting it evenly, and the other possibility is there was maintenance going on, so we don't know if something they did mean may have caused it to collapse. us. president joe biden has met his africa and counterpart as for i've gone at the white house as american forces prepared to leave afghanistan up to 20 years of war bite and said that despite the withdrawal, washington would not end its partnership ghani, said he respected the bible,

decision and the relationship between the countries was entering a new phase. rose jordan has more now from washington. this was a visit of reassurance. you basically saw almost every key member of the u. s. government into engage in a meeting with our shop. connie, a members of his delegation on thursday and on friday. and basically there was this overall recognition that what the united states needs to do is to basically step up its engagement with afghanistan in a number of other areas, except for direct military involvement. there will be some $3000000000.00 spent on security assistance this current year. the administration wants to increase that by about $300000000.00 for next year, but it is important, as joe biden said, during his meeting with our shop connie, that the relationship move from one of ongoing military presence to one that is
8:11 am
civilian to civilian government, afghans are going to have to decide their future what they, what they want, what they want, but it won't be for lack of us being help as you can in a sense, as violence has to stop. but it's going to be very difficult. but we're going to stick with you and we're gonna do our best to see to and you have to in addition to the all going security assistance, which will help the afghan national security forces protect their country. the u. s . is also promising emergency financial assistance to help afghan san deal with the covert pandemic as well as with it's all going humanitarian problems. and that includes housing and education and food for internally displaced. people will the ask and chairman of the high council for national reconciliation, also attended that meeting with mr. by now white house correspondent, kimberly how get that done with dollar dollar afterwards to discuss what's next for the country left. her viola. thank you for joining us. you were just wrapped up

8:13 am
it was a completely different context. the soap with it all in the soviet themself disintegrate . afghanistan was isolated from, from the rest of the world. we were fighting against finance that was chip provided the oppurtunities for taliban to dig to take advantage of it. today we have millions of people who have received district ations. they're aware of their rights . they have exercised different, different way of life. the taliban will be faced with, with that sort of situation and then to, to surplus the whole nation. will not the bus do you see of worrying science, particularly when it comes to the, the power sharing negotiations. when will be oblivious, if it is not concern. and the concern in the back of my mind was that to perhaps taliban are thinking that we go there, be talk and then they will will withdraw. and then we come in and come back by
8:14 am
force. so we're seeing thee, signs of that type of attitude is not, is not promising. it is bullying, but that should not be too shifting to those 5 negotiations. what sort of arrangement have you worked out with us? rough ghani? to ensure that cohesion, moving forward, there are suggestions that perhaps you need to set aside your own political ambitions in order to see. absolutely, absolutely. this is the time that people have one of sun expect us to do. it's not normal time today. it's, these are kind of times enough to stop in, in the sort of situation sir. everybody has a responsibility to look beyond person and i'm bishops still to come here on out to 0. gone, a mushrooms, confess, high prices, but me a mars military. crack them is forcing many forages to abandon this action. also

keep him from fighting drug trafficking, terrorism, and organized crime. and go with it all. but if he in seattle, the presidential helicopter was the target of an attack, the defense interior ministers, a governor and myself, both the aerial device and the capacity of the aircraft helped to prevent something little happening. what's clear is that this the cowardly attack have again very clear instructions to the entire security team to go after those who shot at the aircraft. but the message is, the columbia is always strong in the face of crime. the us vice president is calling on politicians to put politics to one side and tackle the issue of immigration. comalla harris made her 1st trip to the mexican border at a time when the country is seeing a sharp increase in the number of undocumented people seeking to enter the us. rob reynolds has more now from el paso, the vice president, commonly harris's 1st visit to the us mexico border since taking office lasted just

8:27 am
but it's still very hard work. the mushrooms hidden on the side of the steep forest, they look like little pebbles, and they are only in season for a month. these tiny mushrooms are incredibly on the spot. they pop above the surface when the monsoon rains, pull down the crack in the jungle and refresh the sport just to the ground. the mushroom hunt is particularly important this year. the current on the high side of the border have been suffering to pet belongs to the long net, correct, and tribe famous for the distinctive brass bands. the women wear around their necks . most of the tribes income comes from tourism, but that is stopped because of the kobe 19 pandemic. however, chefs across thailand are willing to pay high prices for these mushrooms. when cleaned the little round balls they usually sliced and added to dishes, bringing a pungent flavor of the forest. with a surprisingly crunchy texture. if you say the young cord,
8:28 am
how by the locals really look forward to june, so they can collect the mushroom for their family and sell them. this mushroom is really pricey. just a handful is worth a lot. today's harvest is more than a handful and should pitch a very good price. pet is even turning down buys, who call looking for supplies. in these difficult times for the career, he natures bounty his small nuggets of the black gold tony cheng l to 0 on the time me on my border along the way through the american government reports on u. f. o makes at least one thing clear. the truth is still out there. investigators didn't find extra terrestrial links in reviewing $144.00 sightings of aircraft or other devices, apparently flying at mysterious speeds or directions, but they couldn't rule it out. even the report said more data was required. the subject of u. f. o has drawn serious study from the pentagon and other intelligence agencies
8:29 am
for many years now. malcolm davis is a senior analyst at the australian strategic policy institute. she says what stood out for him and the report is the suggestion. the sightings could be connected to the enemies of the us. do you think we need to put a t firmly in the background and leave it to one side and think about what we can explain through more simpler explanations. there's a saying that usually the simplest explanation is usually the truth. and i think we really do need to apply that here. and so we're not seeing extraordinary evidence to the fact that these things are alien. so we need to push that one side. what does that leave us when it leaves us with technology calls sightings that really can't be easily explained by our current understanding of aerospace capable. ready of these that require the study. and the most interesting thing, i think, is the possibility that these may be manufactured by foreign adverse rate,
8:30 am
that gathering intelligence on the united states. well, the interesting thing about the report is it doesn't support and it does this explicitly. it does not support the suggestion that this is somehow a us government black project, and then it goes on to say, well, there's no way, but it's really that it could be upon advisory over that. then in the next breath, it says, we need to study the things to advertise, whether they are foreign adverse recap abilities. so that to me, to get there is some doubt in the minds of investigators as to whether this could be something foreign created or something that's being created inside black projects in the us as it needs to be study the.
