dos where the lessons learned from the global pandemic could lead to positive change because of the can all hail the locked down, expose a privilege and poverty during a crisis on a jazz. ah, me, it's all about the claim. so taken a 2nd provincial capital within 24 hours, the african government forces trying to regroup, to fight the advance. ah, i'm how am i have been and this is just life and joe, also coming up. the bustle against fierce wildfires continues in greece and turkey . the widespread devastation sizes of people force from their holes found good

starts and fascination campaign hoping to kill it were 3000000 people in a week. after research and croon of artist cases, sizes of migrants in haiti, and several african countries are stranded and running to supplies in columbia in time to walk from continuing their journey. ah, the child says it's taken over a 2nd city. the provincial capital of the northern joseph province. the video released by the ons group form ship at hand, shows their fighters seizing buildings, including the police headquarters and to prison. the government ascending re enforcement son conducting airstrikes to retain control of the city. it's come just a day after the southern city of surrounds fell to the taliban. charlotte bella has this report and i from couple

a government affiliation. source has told us that sure the gun has fallen, although it is quite nuanced and fluid. the taliban say that they took control of the city on saturday afternoon. they took control of the police office, the intelligence offices, the governors compound. they even broke into the prison and released a number of prisoners. now the government says that they don't have full control of the city, that security forces remain at the port and that they are planning a counter offensive. they have started, it strikes and that they are sending in special forces and reinforcements for this contra census to try to take the city. if sure, the gone back, not if it is confirmed to be fallen, it would be the 2nd provincial capital to fool and f gonna stop in just 2 days. and to put that into context for you, the last time a provincial capital fell was in 2015, and that was condos. and that was very briefly the very concerning for the afghan

government. we were with the interior minister earlier, you had to rochelle for an emergency meeting with the defense minister. and then later president ghani prison also met with marshall dawson leader from jos jan province. as the government here looks to see what they can do to push the telephone back out of the city. now that is not the only place where there is heavy fighting. there is strikes and a lot of gunfire in the cities of kansas city, herat, and also lash cargo in helmand. warehouse and above is a professor of international security studies at national defense university and joins us by scope from washington d. c. it's great to have you with as a hero. now just 0. just having a look at the situation in the developments over the last 24 to 48 hours. would you say the taliban has the momentum right now and how much more of a gamma son can we expect to fall to the group? thank you. but if i had the momentum on this side,

there's no denying this fact. and a related fact is that color bama, not a small rag dag insurgent will bet are pretty big. and this was very clear to us for, for quite some time. now. however, a readily important fact is that this is a different spawn upon forces in carbon and be shattered. you, you know, hold on to 10 or 12 stop most are very important or problem should capital m w. so baby had also said the jays to our good friend and we are seeing a major public uproar, be the chance of luck, but by many of the god has bates. this is their defiance in kabul in the heart of other places at night. people who stop seeing this in a loud fashion, so they're pushing, they don't want taliban to come to their centers. so this is 2 different opponents, bonds, and one area taliban are getting momentum in the other area defines for volleyball

. also the certainly as an opposition to the taliban that perhaps there wasn't there in years past, but these people, the post, the taliban aren't being very well served right now. are they the african government forces are unable to hold provincial capitals now. and what the taliban, having the momentum, it certainly doesn't look good for the african people who do want to be ruled by the taliban. why do you think this is? why is the afghan government army struggling so much in the face of this advance? this is an important question. i think the various reasons for this one is the whole state about the building project or the nation building projects. so to say was, as it's on the flaws and weaknesses. secondly, it takes a long time for a new military institution to come to terms with reality and establishes. 3rd,

just by investing in military, it doesn't dissolve the problem. there is no police institution there, no criminal justice system strong enough to order together. so the question priorities of the national priorities also have raised many question and begin upon this bomb. the w government has failed because of their incompetence because of corruption because of those or, or boards, beliefs which, which we're trying to control couple by dividing it among themselves. so the corruption is also a reason which, which and night and frustrated the ordinary of thumb. that's why also there's this failure of the, of the new a bomb in some ways as well. and you mentioned that it takes a long time to, to build up these institutions and to build up the capacities to, to certainly fight these kind of wars. but still to be fair, the 20 years, i mean the us nato forces foreign powers of been in the country,

training up the afghan government forces on police forces for an awful long time. i mean, how much longer would they need it to help the state stand that its own 2 feet it knowing that could make but once upon a time i was a police chief and bugs, i can tell you the institutional code should take some decades. if not lots, essentially, that sounds too long, but if you feel decades for the military or the police go to check. okay cool. how do you, how do you be uniform, how your whole your reference? i mean, i have seen that they were promoting different people from good ankle, from major to a major general in a span of like 6 months to one year. they were different people in the armed forces were in different uniform depending on what they like. so they are failures also the restroom fee is also we just cannot deny that within the spot, there is no indigenous of no local revenue system. so hans new and almost 60 to 70

percent of funding or financing is coming from outside. and despite that, there was no investment in local economic or creed of which would have enabled a bond to stand on it on its own feats. so it's the best of failure if the regional failure, it is the really to be on it as well. this is all happening in better than i forgot you minute, your report of wrong, who again and again being the price for all this tragedy that is thrown at them and moving forwards given where we are right now. what do you see is happening next? do you see that foreign intervention coming back? is there an appetite for foreign power is to come back and help the afghan government extricate itself from the situation. my projection and prediction is a bit dark, but i would like to hope hope for a better future,

which i can give if there is a hot an intervention, it should be peace buildings by a forcing that regional countries, india and buckets on it, on russia, china involving everyone try to, to do, to repair some of what went wrong and it, this should not be so difficult. all of these countries talk about a peaceful region. this is fine for all of them in the regional areas, to stop pushing their proxies for the farm to stop pushing and supporting valuable . but it on not beliefs game for india to stop trying to play different groups against each other and allowing them bringing us some influence on the bond. but did the field commanders listen to anyone? and they did that disconnect also. so someone has to tell by the spot all sorts better for their future. 2 they need to be fully invested in peace. i think the regional sector is an extremely bored and china, russia, us,

all big players need to, you've been union all run by and try to invest and be honest. ok, how some of us were out of time. i'm afraid, but great to get your thoughts. thank you so much for joining us here on al jazeera, we appreciate it. thank you so much. the leader of hezbollah has warns over response to is really air strikes on lebanon after a flare up at the border. the lebanese group, far rocket sword israel on friday, following is really air rates on southern lebanon that they before thursdays is where the rates of the 1st time planes were used since the 2006 war had us men had hit yesterday's operation, was not in response to the killing about 2 members. we are not seeking a war, but we are ready for it and we do not fear it. yesterday's operation was aimed at consolidating the equation of deterrents. chose to carry out the operation during
