august. nearly 20 years of experience has shown us at the current security situation only confirms that just one more year finding that ghana stand is not a solution. but a recipe for being there indefinitely. as the taliban gave power, biden is now on the defensive. this afghanistan future is tied to a political solution, not a military one piece must be negotiated between the african government and the taliban. but when he was asked if he had any faith in the group, the president had this to say, no, i do not trust. to tell him, you will keep a small security and diplomatic presence in the country to support app can force it keep cobbles, airport open, and protect the u. s. embassy. now we're left with a strategy that less than coherent and bad and in ministration is going to have to scramble to realize what their priorities in the region are. the

taliban, rapid advance process. ghana stan has put key cities at risk of being overtaken. still by didn't insist the united states won't be at fault if that happens. no, no, no. it's up to the people who are getting stand, decide on what government they want, not us to impose the government on them. as part of its humanitarian effort, the white house announced on thursday. it will also ship $1400000.00 doses of the johnson and johnson kofi the vaccine to afghanistan. but critics argue, afghanistan needs much more, especially afghan interpreters that served and supported us troops and are now in danger. the white house and says 30 vacuuming, thousands of african nationals and their families to a 3rd party country while their visas are being processed was complete. those who

the way that countries like korea will finally get a handle on, on, on the corner of ours pandemic. and finally begin to safely loosen some of the restrictions. what is being put into place now again reflects some of the success. the korean government had earlier, but with newman and stricter messaging, you know, you've only 2 people can go out to dinner rather than 4. bars and restaurants are closing much earlier. are actually bars are closed, restaurants are open for a very limited period of time. again, looking at the areas where transmission has been problematic. so they are directing attention to the areas where they know spreaders occurring and hopefully this will be successful. vaccines are also going up in indonesia where it says a new daily record. many hospitals are a capacity leading to patients being turned away and people are scrambling to find oxygen to care for their relatives at home. just washington reports from the cathy

these doctors are also struggling with shortages. we need really need about oxygen per se and reveal and then also the medicine. because we see the condition, so we need to see fit them this. if we cannot find a doctor, ernie says the government's data doesn't tell the full story because so many people are dying before they take a p. c r test. oh, we feel bad because right now i've lost a home sometimes we have report report before reported to someone at home when we checked the body with her team tried to monitor patients in the area, but there are more than 300 of them and only 30 health workers, as hospitals reach capacity and force to turn away critically ill people,

roving teams of public health, clinic work as a trying to reach those in need of medical attention to monitor their condition and to provide them with oxygen and medication. but there are too many patients and not enough medics and they don't have the time or resources to help everyone in need. the ministry of health says it is trying to increase medical oxygen production and add more beds in hospitals. but each day, more and more people are falling in because of the very difficult to find because the why the help us and sometimes the help us that they need the way. but without even the prospect of getting medical care, people continue to die in their own homes in front of their loved ones. jessica washington out to 0 because she's much more come here on al jazeera egypt.

it needs rich countries to deliver on their promise. in providing cove, in 1900 vaccines as supplies are running out, given the rate of transmission. scientists fear the already virulent delta various could mutate into a more deadly and contagious virus. if we left countries behind on the vaccination and public health response, we just give them more chance to the fighters to evolve and new variance to emerge with or without the vaccine for senegal and other african countries. it's a race against time to prepare the population ahead of what appears to be a new and more dangerous wave of infection. nicholas hawk elgin's iraq, the cart, the olympic torch has arrived in the whole city, tokyo, 2 weeks out from the start of the games. but there will be no spectators that pick events from the japanese capital. the organizers made the decision as the city
