were russians here in the past. now, americans, we should not wait for another superpower to come and help us, and we should not worry about them anymore. as these armories, dream of self reliance may not be shared by many within the afghan govern meant they're accusing the us of leaving the bog warm air base last week without advance notice something. the americans have been quick to deny. i can tell you that afghan leaders, civilian and military were appropriately coordinated with and briefed about the turnover of bottom airbase. in fact, the us central command set on tuesday, the ballroom was the 7th and final military base and turned over to afghan control . they said the hand overtook several weeks and that the u. s. isn't abandoning afghanistan. we have every intention of continuing an ongoing president presence and cobble which is continue even after we bring our military who are serving

a home by the end of august. but other images from the provinces tell a different story. afghan soldiers have either deserted their posts and fled or at talib on media, puts it decided to join the opposition. but the afghan government says this is a temporary setback. this situation will not continue. and to talk on are not able to take the aria or did to be taken over by game, and we are getting busy and we will watch operations. and we will capture if the by ministration is worried about these developments. and the taller bonds commitment to a peaceful future. it's not saying so. analysts say there is reason to be concerned . no, said the interest of the united states in the interests of countries in the region to ensure that the afghan government does not collapse. but we're heading to a pretty dark place at the moment. some on the streets of margaret already think the dark place has a right to be filling. and if you can see now

a lot of districts have surrendered to the taliban. even some afghan forces have fled to tajikistan and i'm telling you that afghan forces would not be able to secure our country if there will be no foreign support. we will witness once again, civil war here. a pivotal or perhaps inevitable moment for the afghan people. after 20 years of the us led war. rosalyn jordan al jazeera washington, alaska and government says territory captured by the taliban will soon be retaken and counter offensive. its national security adviser says hundreds of soldiers who fled to g cust on will be brought back to rejoin the fight. the taliban have taken control of another 36 districts seen here in gray. that's 10 percent of the country and just the past 6 days. they've double the number of districts they control since may the 1st, when us and nature forces started the final withdrawals. from amazon is the spokesman for afghanistan,

defense ministry. he says the taliban took advantage of the government's failure to deploy forces in rural areas. unfortunately, we're all affected the forces efficient in hulu, or it do to draw up your mind for we couldn't the wire in hulu and aria ruler. that's why he told him to take over and capture it. the fix was running away from the capital graph. you can think jubal mountain you can please. so we were trying to get in greedy and we are trying to wire on earlier when to talk abrasion on or be fine. but the situation will not continue

and to talk on are not able to reject the audio or did to be taken over by game. and we're getting the, the and we will logical operation. and we will capture last to now to the current of virus outbreak in se, asia worst affected nation. indonesia is now importing emergency oxygen supplies and preparing backup medical facilities as infections continue to saw. let's take a look now the situation in the country with the johns hopkins university is coded 19 tracker. on tuesday, the daily number of cases hit another record high of more than 31000. the government expects that number could double in total, indonesia had more than 2300000 cases and 61000 deaths. while hospitals of the city

of sir bye are turning away patients and the health care system in the capital. jakarta is 90 percent capacity with jessica washington join us live now from the city of the coffee. that's east of the capital jakarta. jessica. so indonesia now recording record numbers of infections and rising death and the health care system . clearly buckling under the pressure go. that's right. and you can see the result of that behind me. i'm here at one of the new co with 900 burial sites in baton. see on the outskirts of jakarta. and the reality is that as hospitals are under pressure, people are forced to isolate at home and they are dying without even ever getting the opportunity of medical treatment. you can see the cemetery behind me is very busy because the reality is is many sick people are being turned away from hospitals in jakarta, across java hospitals, as you mentioned at 90 percent, but some at 100 percent capacity already. we know that some hospitals have been

forced into the position of having to treat patients in comp hawks in corridors in lobbies because they simply do not have the capacity to take on more patients. now, the indonesian government says that they are attempting to address this crisis. they are attempting to add more hospital beds, increase oxygen supplies, and isolation facilities. but the reality is, is that even before the coven, 1900 pandemic, indonesia had a shortage of health care work is now. many doctors that we have spoken to have already stressed that from their perspective, the fact that they have to turn away critically ill patients to treat themselves at home means that the health care system in java at least has already collapse. but the indonesian health ministry says from their perspective, they would simply describe it as being at over capacity. but those semantics don't really matter. when you look at a scene like this, people are dying their loved ones, a greeting for them, and many are asking if the government had acted more decisively from the beginning

. how many of these families would have to be here today grieving for their loved ones? we also know that as hospitals reach capacity and people are forced to basically treat themselves at home, many of desperately searching for oxygen. even people that we know acquaintances have asked us if we know where it's possible for them to get. and fortunately, some oxygen stores do still have supplies, but it is becoming increasingly difficult. and this crisis is really growing here in jakarta. jessica and what's happening with indonesia vaccination rolled out is that like to make any difference, this crisis will at this point, things have really reached this scale of crisis where it's difficult to see the impact of the vaccination drive. at this point. we do know that as this crisis has stretched on and in recent weeks, as things have gotten increasingly was, the government has prioritized the vaccination drive and the target set by the president, president joker with giotto vaccinating at least $1000000.00 people or more each

day are increasingly being met, but the reality is that indonesia population is $270000000.00 people and only a very, very small percentage of people are fully vaccinated. only 14000000 people have had both shots required. so there is not really a sense that the vaccination drive has had a huge impact yet. but as things take up, hopefully that will change. but the peak of the infections is expected to rise and things are only expected to get worse during july. so we will have to see how that situation pans out, but as things stand, not enough people are vaccinated for that vaccination drive to have an impact on how things are right now. alright, jessica washington, then the city of because the east of the capital jakarta. jessica, thank you. and south korea's reporting. it's highest daily corona virus counts since late december, the country. so more than $1200.00 cases on wednesday, the government has put off easing some restrictions of cases rise and says it would

looks quite peaceful, but whether experts and the government, this issue, the warning that it has been missing a significant amount of sulfur dioxide, which means and the russian could happen anytime this week or over the next few weeks. that means those who have been displaced over the past few days will remain in evacuation cent centers of thousands of them coming from the sound of the read and again senior. the government also said that there have been around 40 bo county earthquakes that have been identified tremors, that last sometimes up to 5 minutes. but the major concern at this point is really the safety and security of so many civilians live within the core. so call me around because they are info. so communities around the lake, for example, you in this stuff also issued a statement yesterday basically warning that silver and are at risk of rep respiratory diseases and many civilians who also they hope that they won't have to see any back to asian centers for too long because of the fear of the pandemic,

government. to me is very troubling. in this context for, you know, a country that's being accused of genocide by its own federal commission, the national inquiry and timothy a murdered vision of women and girls confidently is still signaling to us that it's going to take a slow measured approach. i do not believe that genocide is a crime, but should be tolerated for any amount of time and let alone the long path towards reconciliation alluded to by the new governor general. i think that it deserves immediate attention because well, as someone who's also formerly worked in indigenous governance, i know that indigenous government like the i t k of which she was president and the m n. c. and the a f and are heavily dependent on the canadian government for their funding. and kennedy uses that dependency to coerce indigenous governments to do work as

candidates. so it's my belief that the selection of simon by prime minister trudeau is likely because he's comfortable with her pass track record that, that she will rock the boat very much and that she will tow the line and protect the government of canada. we need something more courageous than that right now. a former presidential hopeful and bella roost has been sentenced 14 years in prison on corruption charges. victor baba rico was convicted of money laundering, bribery, and tax evasion. he was arrested last june when he tried to register his candidacy against president alexander lucas shanker christian went on to claim a landslide victory in the august election opposition on the western government. say the vote was rate for peters on maya was from the eurasia democracy initiative . he says the charges against baba rico of no credibility. what distinguishes the

situation from previous elections, where lucas, president bush and one was that this time are candidates, his opponent was arrested before, not after the elections, which is showing you that no matter who runs against the question, guys long as he is genuine or she is genuine opposition, people will vote for him or her simply because they're very tired of a guy who's been in charge of bella luce, for over 25 years. it's a playbook we have seen once time and again, it's a playbook used by putting over in russia as you know, this of all the was charged with very similar crimes just recently and showcase heavily borrowing from pollutants a playbook. and i think is under his dictates, in fact as to how to proceed to try to clean political space for himself. so these charges are, have very, very little credibility. and evidence of that mister bob erico has already been

proclaimed as a recognized as a political prisoner, and he joins over 400 such political prisoners who are languishing in jail in bellows as we speak. it signifies that bella is finally cut off from the rest of the european community. it's a final korea state. your will have nothing to do with bella, and that has put, lucas shall go further if you'll put and embrace vladimir potent is really angling at gobbling off bella roost. i think within a year or 2 years, we will see bella was disappearing from the political map of the world and becoming a part of russia. 28 people are fear dead after a plane crash in rushes, far east. none of the $22.00 passengers and 6 crew believe to have survived the turn engine. soviet era aircraft disappeared from radar as it was about to land in heavy fog and the remote come check the peninsula center monahan has more. wreckage
