the prime minister in turkey and greece a baffling wildfire night and day someplace is dangerously close to residential areas. the government has gone to great lengths, a great extent to keep this information buried from public families on victim edge washington to make public classified documents that may reveal more information about the attack. and i'm far as we'll have all the action from the tokyo olympics, where kevin duran has become the highest score for the us men's basketball team as he help side to goal. ah, me. when you get in, i've got to start with the telephone, says it has captured a 2nd city and, and intensifying campaign against the government. and his statement beyond group

says to control all ship gone, capital of the northern province of jarvis come. this video suggests taliban fight has seized several government buildings including the police headquarters and a prison. the afghan government denies the area has been captured. the american james bays is covering developments from cobble. if the taliban claim is true, then it is the 2nd provincial capital to fallen in 2 days. this is in jose, john, it's in the north of afghanistan and the provincial capital ship reagan, that the taliban are saying they have control of all the main government buildings . they have control of the governance compounds. they have control of the police headquarters, the intelligence headquarters. we've seen pictures the taliban a posted of the prison and very much as they did 24 hours ago in the rooms. if those pictures are genuine, they shows to tell about breaking into the prison in order to break out the prisoners. which of course included taliban fighters who then joined the battle in

the ship regarding the government is being a little bit quiet and what they're saying. they confirmed that the police headquarters is in taliban top hands. that's a mit ministry of interior spokes person. and they say otherwise, the heavy fighting continues in chapter gun. certainly the taliban seemed confident in the claims. they put out a statement, a message to government employees in both numerous province and jo john province. so those, the provinces where these 2 provincial capitals are based, they say they've got control of those 2 in tar provinces. and the message to government workers is we are your brothers and you should return, you should not run away. now to the un in new york where the security council heard that it cannot stand by as i've gone, i don't think that would cause has tracy. kristen salumi report thing. the country is at a dangerous turning point. the un special representative for afghanistan called on

the security council to act and act quickly 1st by demanding an end to taliban attacks against cities to attack urban areas is to knowingly inflict enormous harm and cause massive civilian casualties. nonetheless, the threatening of large urban areas appears to be a strategic decision by the taliban, who have accepted the likely carnage that will ensue. russia said the emphasis should be on restarting stalled political talks between the afghan government and the taliban. achieved. mister william lewis show you how it is clear that there is no military solution to the afghans situation. but in the current situation, given the absence of progress on the negotiation track with the prospects of afghanistan slipping into full scale and protracted civil war. unfortunately is a stark reality. the united states whose withdrawal of forces precipitated the

escalation put the focus on the taliban. the taliban must hear from the international community that we will not accept military take over that began a stand or return of the taliban islamic emerett. in addition to the worsening humanitarian situation, many speakers described grave human rights abuses from summary executions to the flogging of children with women at particular risk. afghanistan's baset are told the council that their own report suggests more than 20 foreign terrorist groups, including al qaeda, are operating in afghanistan. let's not forget that. these fighters are there for reason for reciprocity. they will be demand. they are, they are helping taliban today. tomorrow they will be demanding a favor from the taliban. so we our, our concern is afghanistan. once again, if not prevented, turn into a terrorist hub. with more and more people fleeing afghanistan,

the situation there is already affecting its neighbors and could stabilize the entire region, giving the security council grounds to act. another meeting on the us mission to get a status scheduled for september. but there's growing concern that will be too late . christian salumi al jazeera, the united nations, have gone live to kind of just a moment to speak to must of been old, who is the chief of field operations that unique have gone as dawn. but before we do that, let's listen to more of what was said at the un security council meeting yesterday with regard to the risks facing children. the head of the un assistance mission to i've gone on told the council about one meeting she had with the mother of a girl. another woman told us that she sometimes regrets that she had educated her daughter as that had put her daughter in a more vulnerable position. council members, mr. president,

for all of us do our parents of daughters. i can hardly think of a more despondent, common suicide bombings, summary execution, revenge killing stoning to that chopping of hands, flogging of children, forced marriages, and restricting women and girls movement are a common occurrence in area under taliban control and are sanctioned by taliban religious for to us her, let's bring him the stuff a been miss out from unicef in afghanistan. thank you for your time. you're in canada. how you're on the ground. what we heard just there. so distressing is that lining up with what you're seeing there on the ground. thank you for having me. i mean, come, come up for week. now, let me tell you that what i'm seeing and i'm just starting from an id, can allow to expect around 6000 people have been pushed away from their houses. i

meant some of them today. i met her mother and her child from start go. i met the mother with her child from the mother. i'm not sure how the child was received when the fighting came to the door. the house could fire and how the burns on the lower the mother from a 10 month old child. and he is severely and nourished and now undergoing treatment with our team. and it's just her refix situation. you can imagine, well those what those parents are going through, what is the unique able to do to help these people we haven't preposition supply. when described as files and folding. the violence was increasing across the country so we could position supply and in our 11 offices

engage with part of the conflict to ensure that children's rights are protected. but the support across the country that there is no time for us to be there when they need us. children are missing on their mutation. faxing children are pushed away and their nutrition is being neglected. children, especially in the last to go. that's a place where polio on them are on their house and being a heavy, heavy prime. since the beginning of the year. 460 children have been killed, 1200, have been injured. and this situation is happening across the country. the violence month stopped for us to be able to reach them on time. pregnant mother put into the street my that was my next question actually about getting access. so you've been to an internally displaced persons camp with people who fled trying to find safety

. but what about getting access to those areas where the fighting is still ongoing and all the civilians are being caught in the crossfire i says, is one of the key issues that we're working with to try to get to get access about it. but i'd like to have the complex nice stuff to violence to stop. because right now as i see there are still civilian. and there is no way for us to be able to reach that place. and the number of places like best to go is building go everyday from the north to the west in the south. more than now is becoming extremely difficult and challenging for you to be there in time and we need to be there. otherwise, the women and children are going to pay the price. we will continue, of course, to report on this unfolding situation and what it means for children in afghanistan

for now, think your time of stuff. have been my food chief field operations at uni stone. thank you. let's go to thailand now where a situation is dramatically unfolding these alive pictures that you're looking at. now from bangkok, as you can see, protest is throwing projectiles that police police are firing. back with here again, we've got several angles and what is happening right now in bangkok you can see right police a very much prepared the people who are on the street demanding the resignation of the prime minister. and they are calling for urgent for forms to the monarchy. this is all unfolding as you can see right now, live on the streets of the ty, capital. at least one person has been arrested so far.

now this has been, these protests have been happening since august last year. there were concerns they had run out of steam by protest is pushing this movement earlier in the year. but as you can see, people are very much out on the street. and police are prepared to meet them. now as we continue to look at these live pictures, let's just bring in private jenna rock, who has a tie journalist at cos all dot com bank based english language news website. i believe you've been out. 7 on the street there today to tell us what's happening . oh, i'm not far away from the process side. just 5 minutes. well basically the, the month trader fed up with the cobra 19 situation both in terms of the number in

fact, which i've gone over 20000 over the past few days in terms of the daily infection number and the whole ring around $200.00 plus or minus today it went beyond $200.00 for the 1st time since the outbreak began last year. and they want the prime minister to refine on top of that, they want the monitoring to be a reform the mains vaccine production companies. in thailand, bio fine is owned by the crowd, and it has failed to produce the expected number of offspring back, which has been earlier anticipated. and this means certainly only 6 percent of the high populations off fully fact in a situation where the country has been d

b impacted not just in terms of public health but the economy. the whole of bangkok is down curve who is at 9 p. m. but the baffling out just goes out with the police and it is almost for the past 5 pm. so 3 hours to go before the b. okay. so people are angry, as you say about the call, the response and the slow vaccine rollout. i'm wondering, is that kind of aggravating existing grievances? yes, i mean, it's been, you know, a accumulated ways. and although thailand did quite well early last year, the current way, which is the delta area, have devised said that the high health systems and the economy. so the demonstrative, despite the rest of them felt to be coming, in fact that they decided to be out. we estimate about 3 to 4000 people on the

street as i speak. yeah, just want to take a moment to run us through what we're seeing there. these live pictures, you can see right pennies, gathering, what seems to be another push. the protected themselves also appear to be very well prepared in terms of wearing helmets. obviously they are bad for the use of it will expected use of, of peer gas there on the streets. it appears to be some thousands of people, as you say, who have taken to the streets of bangkok, private i want to ask you, i mean, what our protest is risking by taking to the streets. because i know by criticizing the monarchy that carries a very serious sentence, they are fully aware, i believe. unfortunately, the names re max you have to spend felt like today. i took

a picture all rafferty exit to a packing, abusing that thing and apart. you cannot show that on, on the media, on social media. over the pop up at least $100.00 people have been arrested and charged with defaming the monarchy or less, which carry a maximum improvement firm or 15 year. so they are very well aware. so many i using social media particularly on through certain aspect attacking the monarchy, want to people want pending. they're obviously willing to risk a lot, as you say, not just catching cove, it in the middle of the pandemic. but putting their physical cell was in danger. what is it that people want to see change they want a quick introduction or procurement of him in a back seat. currently,

we only depend on finals which is produced in china. and also the number of gaps receiving is much lower than all considerably lower than we had anticipated. so to believe that if they could remove from our no one else could be was going to have the believe. so they believe that and you have many sprays and needed to better run and deal with the core with 19 prices and the economy impact stemming from the locked out before the 19th. okay. how has the prime minister of general to responded so far? well, he has been adamant and he said he will not resign. he will be the court with 19 prize this truth. and as you can see this afternoon,

the police are blocking the road leading to the residence, which is inside military camp. the protest i just around they just in minutes war from the rest of the you is not going to refine many people believe they will have to power in more pressure in order to make that happen. and that's what they're doing. this 5, the risk of becoming infected. ok, so this is all happening then in the area leading to the prime minister's residence . if you have just joined us here on al jazeera, these are live pictures from van cox, where as you can see, a dramatic situation is unfolding protested, crashing with police and security forces. they are on the streets of thailand. as we've been saying, people are angry about the country's coven, 1900 response to 60 percent of the time population has been fully vaccinated.

people, some people are calling for the resignation of the prime minister and urgent reform to the monarchy. we have with us on the line private road, janet brook a, ty journalist called english english at bank oak based english language. on my new website. i want to ask you again private route. 6 for audience who has made just joined us, just tell us kind of give us a situation. give us a situation there on the ground. where is this happening? why is this happening? what are people telling you who are out on the street today? why it's happening? because the impact on the 1919 being a huge over the past 3 months, we have been getting on seeing unprecedented number of new daily infections currently at around $2500.00 plus or minus per day.

and the demonstrative feel that if i remove the prime minister general for you and all shop on power and they want, also, he puts down the budget for the monica. the institution in the money would be redirect, was full. the really are the 5 again, with 19 as i have mentioned earlier, only 6 percent off the whole whole population of thailand have been fully vaccinated. the rock scene roll out has been very slow and partly it has to do with the delay or the less than expected. but that's a number of offs for after sending back the could used by a company owned by the problem. so if you months rated very unhappy most just about for you, but the thing or the monitor as well. and that's why the out about 10 minutes walk away from the prime minister residents. so the police are doing everything to stop

them. and this is free. our before the curfew, which is the call which is 9 pm by foreign. hey, thank you very much for bringing us up to the private gentle prosperity journalist in the same thing. the, the live pictures from bank call aware of rightly meeting protest is within water can be used to pay again as well. being used out there on the street. this is on the road leading to the prime minister's residence. and we will of course, stay across the story and bring you more developments as they happen. thank you more ahead on the news, all included, more than 3000000 vaccinations in 6 days, bangladesh. the senate code 900 telegraph, locked down and libya groan of ours cases. the country received doses of
