the ask the village less than a week before the olympic games begin. africa, the president admits his government was not prepared to deal with days of unrest, which he says were planned and coordinate. ah, well if senior ask an delegation as indoor hall to meet representatives of taliban as violence escalades in afghanistan, the group has been taking advantage of the u. s. withdraw launching offences and capturing large parts of the country. the 2 sides have been meeting on and off for months now, but the talks of last mentor him as the fighting rages on back home. the african government delegation says negotiations all the only way for want to do the sort of the delegation of afghanistan, heated by the chairman of the reconciliation committee,

has arrived in the capital capital. doha, and as meeting with the delegation of negotiations affiliated with the government during his visit at the lab dollar will discuss important and crucial issues for taliban representatives. the solution to the conflict in afghanistan lies in negotiations, and peace can be reached through dialogue. if these talks lead to satisfactory results for both positive on the telephone movement has repeatedly confirmed its readiness for dialogue and negotiations. and the problems can only be solved by dialogue. but the afghan government needs to also show the same commitment. they need to show the right and sincere determination when it comes to negotiations in order to end these problems. shortly. we'll get the latest on those talks with us on the job aid. but 1st, charlotte balance has more for us from cobble on the growing pressure. a diplomatic resolution 23 year old refugee has one job, make sure no weapons bombs or the taliban into cobble. this is just one of

a series of checkpoints that encircled a capital diplomatic quarter. these police officers have one eye on the road and one eye on the politics that put them here. i think that often the delegations into hard to do a 2 piece which is what all of the guns won't know just a minute after i'm optimistic about it. they should said, don't disclose their shoes. and so all the problems, challenges and kills in our country. security is a huge aspect of life and cobble telephone flight who's have military momentum and rule and incredible. they wonder what that means for the telecom more than controlled 20 percent back in the district. i know it's more than 50, received an eob from scratch is getting ever closer to the capital, carbon appliances controlled districts, the 5 kilometers away and apply thing to get others just outside the show ponies like mohammed for read,

this fighting has brought new challenges. his business bounce back from a long coated 19 lockdown last year. but now he's worried about supply. because been by your la, unless we get all ceremony. at the moment we're not optimistic because the roads are closed. and when borders are close, there is no business because there are no imports or exports. as we were filming the power cut twice before the generator kicked him. generators are increasingly popular as regular power outages, flake the city, the fuel needed to run them, as also increased by nearly 70 percent in 3 months. the. with the power restored, there's a new customer. at 24 frish decide dickie just graduated from university. her 1st job was working at the ministry of foreign affairs on the scanner stones, chronic router issues. she says her dream is to become a diplomat. we are very concerned because especially as a girl,

my future seems very dark to me. especially if taller bonds get in fee into cobble city, then they're not going to allow us to pursue our dreams and to go for the goals that we have drawn for our own self. mike frisch, the city key. many people in carville, cautiously marching ford, but unsure of what lies ahead. they likely wonder will we have to move? will our economy survive when our rights be retained, and without people live, to see a brighter future? answers that the most in cobble are in the hands of other people, the charlotte bellis out to 0. cobbled. that's not peter's only been job aid. he's outside those talk here and the catherine capital doha sound given the offensive. we've been seeing now on the ground that charlotte was talking about. can you talk us through the significance of this particular meeting? when it's one more effort to try and bring these sites together?

would seem to be pulled the bod, almost a year after the deal was fine. between the united states and the taliban. and later on in truck gone, they go. fusions began here in the capital. it seems to be no headway, no real tangible progress. you have gone site and says that there needs to be a ceasefire before that there can be any real dialogue and the kind of on insisting that they want their version of shari'a. they want the government, which is comprehensive and includes old sides and have gone to stanford. they seem to be very, very different from what the world would like to see between these 2 sides happening. we're seeing not just that high power delegate being led by the lab, the la from gun to sun, but also from the bottom 5 major leaders here already trying to sort out those different to see if there is any common ground that they can, they can achieve we've also been looking at various diplomats from all over the

world, the good especially representatives from europe, from the united states, from the united nation try and see if they can push these talks to words, some sort of semblance of piece. but so far this seems to be no head base and both of them seem to be on a very different tangent on how to go about achieving piece and have some you say no headway at, i mean there have been several rounds of to appear in high as anything concrete, like you to come out of these discussions at all? well, it depends on who you speak to. i was just talking to the taliban delegates coming in and they told me that these talks should have happened months ago. they've been waiting for a high powered delegation, a delegation, which represents not just the gun government, but other people who are part of the gun society, people who we are covering the understand and according to them, the government is just one variable of thought. and i've also been speaking with people who have come to her from a gun to son,

and they have been telling me that this is they don't, they have not lost hope for peace. and they are going to try and convince yvonne to come and talk about not just violence because that is not to be forward according to the government. so this, these talks again the le yesterday announcing that he's coming to cobbled with high hopes. but again, there are differences within cobblins both. we saw that members off the delegation including former president time at car, if i could not make it to the thoughts. so there are multiple layers of challenges, not just between the offline government and the parlor bond, but we didn't cobble on the part of the structure and the before. what do you see in the summer been today the following. those talk to us here and how thank you so much. are some home moving on now and emergency workers in germany and belgium are still searching for hundreds of people missing off the heavy flooding there. more than $150.00 are now confirmed dead. that trigger is expected to increase rescue

efforts. i'll still being hampered by collapse roads and damaged communication lines. steadfast and reports. now, from the germantown of syndic, where cleanup efforts have begun, they were trapped in the rooms on the 1st floor when the water rose up to 4 meters in no time. at least 12 residence of this home for disabled people died before they could be moved to safety. across the street, gabriella wild watched the neighbourhood swiftly turn into a swirling river and feared the worst of the people on the la tours had not made at all. i don't know exactly what happened, but the next morning lucy survived, were evacuated from the balconies. absolutely horrible, and living in this region. his whole life harmon angled still can't comprehend what he saw when the water came to panic. will pass. i wasn't just shocked. i panic, i quickly took out the car as well as my dog and the 2 kept blowing to my daughter

that we were taking care of this sort of destruction i've never seen before. floating yes, but not tree boundaries floating away when he was lucky enough to be moved to safety and to find his house still standing upon return. auto saw their homes washed away by water was destroyed by lance lights. many remained missing. nobody expected that a few days of torrential rain could have such a widespread catastrophic impact. confronted with the sheer power of water, people here wondering what happened and where all this work came from raising questions about the effects of climate change. and if what was called this once in a century, flock would now happen more frequently. people are saying that this might happen like for now every 510 years or something like that. i'm not sure. and i mean like we tried to learn from this to gather with relatives and friends, louisa who young is trying to clean up the mess at the family house, not knowing where to start. they try to return on thursday,

but had to leave once again. the water was still here, we tried to get in the house and get everything up on the like highest point in the house. so and then we just grabbed also some stuff that we could see about. we knew ok, this is important. and now we just left, the extent of the damage won't be known for days or perhaps weeks, but the memories and trauma of this twist of nature will likely remain with the people here for much longer. more now with steadfast and bon step. these were not just record breaking, but record smashing floods. where all the water levels that now well, for the 1st time in days the sun came out just a tiny bit. but if i could, agents are still ongoing in the middle of the night. hundreds of people up to 700 have been evacuated because a dam burst near ice bag that's near cologne. and the reason for that was that the

waters in the netherlands on the other side of the border were also so high that they closed the flood gates there. so the water came back to germany and really led to some serious problems at the damn. so the german authorities had to call to the netherlands. this is a border region. so all of course, all the authorities are taking their own measure and it's very difficult to coordinate this disaster. meanwhile, also if a question still ongoing from nursing home hospitals, buildings that are really damaged as well, i spoke to a person in a nursing home up to the 2nd floor. the water was and there were people living above the eighty's and ninety's. so very dia, situation still, although in some places the water is receding and other places, it's still very high, especially near the border regions of madeline and belgium. step as we've been seeing from these images on the screen and also from your report that's clearly an immense cleanup operation ahead. what kind of help can people expect?

well, they also have a frying that bass, 19000 rest. your work are on this locations at the moment. the army is trying to get to a place and i start where lance lights were happening and car, well, basically swimming away with people still in it. so the rescue worker from the army are trying to recover. probably bodies from the scars right now, but of course they're completely overwhelmed and what i saw yesterday was mainly people helping each other. and that's a positive thing for me and coming from this very dire situation, people really helping a shot at lots of volunteers. also people offering how come into our houses, offering food. so there's a really for the native apples from the people themselves happening right now here in the western part of germany. that's awesome. there was all the laces from those floods on the ground in bond for

a thank you so much. stella had few here on out of here. we look at the latest person to be accused of involvement in the assassination of president. and we see detainees from cuba is biggest demonstrations and decades, which use the police and i hello we, they still have a few showers in the forecasts for those foot hit part so central year, but it will turn dry over the next couple of days. so that circulation, feeding motion i was down towards the ops was northern parts of the balkans, maybe to northern areas of italy. breakfast guys coming back in behind. still with a few showers high pressure, notching its way in and that's why things will quiet and down. it's going to be hot

this street and there was such a force that it brought furniture along with it and surround cause as if they were moved toys where the water level rose for about 2 meters. people now are simply trying to clean up the own salvage. what they can, they're obviously extremely shaken. if we go through what it was so scary to see the war to rise. my car in the carriage is totally destroyed. there was water all the way up to here. well, some streets in the area are still flooded and roads are still inaccessible to cause and vehicles. and that is why the only way of accessing some houses is by boat. well, the prime minister, belgium has called the floods unprecedented and schooled for dave national morning on july 20th for the victims. in now the 1st case of the current of ours has been confirmed inside the athlete
