back to eating the city. i mean those 2 things may be happening and i think those are gonna be the most they're getting from the us and its allies, with regard to under consideration is the issue of domestic list. i'm happy and that comes down to foresight. whether taliban will have the foresight to think that if they take over a couple in a surrender deal, how would other app on proceed from will that are not allowed to tell me how one can not clinically present a country? that would be absurd. i believe they present the minority, but we can debate how popular they are, but it's absolutely clear that they don't represent the majority or most how would they take over a couple if it's done to basically surrender would be perceived how a future government that comes down a comes out of a profit that is absolutely control, but to tell them i will proceed if they don't care about the medical is going to see all my grade. there is going to be armed by the distance against them. i mean,

that is the nature of a country that is fragmented. i mean, maybe at this moment it wouldn't be because of the fact that the military takeover has been so devastating and it's been doing toward the middle. i think that i think maybe thinking about resisting, but it will not last like this and it's a good might. we are back in 2001 moment should have us reach out to paula and included them in the bone conference. all of them had lost as you point out. they were gone, part of one could not have are inclusion, but should have united big in the united nation. did that any way to create a more inclusive government and minimize the chance of researching again? i believe in hindsight, absolutely yes. tell them on our face with the same choice. would they reach out even though the equations may not be forcing them? well, they reach out well they try to include their position, the elements that are, that are against them. in some sort of process and that would require, that cannot happen, like the government can all be agreed upon in matters of our future. political,

what can be the point is an entry maternity and what it called war is that intimidated to have and some neutrality has have a sense of being able to act the facilitator between different part if you haven't in government that is basically a taller one proxy that would mean to paula would define what is it inclusive government who gets to be included and then any government comes out of it would risk a serious resistance against that the same way. i think that the failure bone conference to include taliban lifted off a chain to re yes. and and fight again. yeah. exclude people and it to people, what are they going to do? i mean, some people may have no choice but to fight and but if you include them that we live incentive to fight it's playing, but it isn't quite farsight. ok, foresight for them to see. thank you so much for your thoughts on that horror. and

joining us from the stumble, cantavon is also taking control of every major border crossing in afghanistan are looking at we were looking at some of the late pictures. now looking at the map, last crossing to be seized was the crossing of total home. one of the largest gateways between afghanistan and pakistan. come on, hi, there has more on that from slam about what we have heard from the report. is that the dollar barn, toko, that door come? thing late last night? i did send a message today of one border related rela, the national army, that they would vacate those border positions, ad that dollar bond game and greeted the georgia. we have video that we've been able to demo quite relax. also are the board that the boarded white dad be noise didn't know while in the fact that this particular border crossing,

although the men are just hobby into a runners. donna had been close also because of goal red restriction. but at some point, that dollar bond of garage will be negotiating with the budget on the site. in order to reopen the border like their green ball doug, this is a key supply line and any closure of the border could lead to a humanitarian crisis. and i've run it on because of large like carbo. your la bod, ida? major city. then the fact that did it fighting, but did it? no, it's upright and the most of the people have lived under a dollar bond road. what we've been heading in that is no panic, like european cobble, and the fact that the dollar bond had been able to take over most of the positions be fully i. let's take you to some live pictures now of cobble the african capital. some key moments in this city's history. now we understand the taliban

forces on the very least on the outskirts of cobble city called upon, says they're giving, given orders not to enter and to give time for negotiations for a peaceful transition of power. let's go to charlotte. bellis joins us live from cobble shallow, a lot on pack from what's happening in the ground to political talk. so let's start with the ground situation. just talk us through. what we understand is happening right now in the, in the advance of the tommy bon on the capital cobble. well, since we talked last, they have been many, many more helicopters in the air. a lot, circling around southern cobble, we're talking, we're talking black hole channels, us apache helicopters flying around, essentially scanning southern cargo. some of the helicopters have been firing

live to understand use to stop any kind of ground to air missiles both that is happening. other helicopters, i can see i can see them shooting heat please. as i speak actually, are we able to pen around and grab this? there's a black hole in the air that's just shot for he lives over the central cobble. while that is happening, there are also helicopters, varying people from the us embassy to the get out of the way here for you to the airport. and we've also heard heavy, you can see a helicopter cursing out from the embassy. they were traditionally, they do passions where they may take the most direct work from the embassy to the force. now that the telephone are right on the frontier of cargo city. and it was heavy gunshots earlier and, and some concern that the telephone had actually into the city. they had started going in multiple different direction, circling the,

put up more helicopters that started using. he please. certainly on and doing kind of low flies or, or the city to give you a little bit more context the ministry than terrier we understand. they have said that trying to reassure people, there were guaranteeing security. of course we put troops around the goods and the city stall, any telephone coming in, if there is a transition, it will be peaceful. so they are talking about the positive, let's say all the transition to the taliban. the taliban themselves saying that they hope that any transfer of power will be peaceful. so this in the context of negotiations have been happening. the last couple of days they have continued endorse with us. and the international part news has been some talk this morning that mother barret, who is the political sheet for the taliban based indoor ha,

that he is coming to cobble. we understand he isn't as we speak, but they may be preparation being made for him to come to cobble as part of these negotiations. but certainly very tampa here in the capital this morning. a friend of mine i just spoke to said there's actually a militia on his street for say that they will fight. or there is some concern about if the telephone do say that they're going to take, or how even if the government sees that they are on board with this. what about these militias? and what about people who are not happy with that? and they take up. so there's a lot of insecurity in the city at the moment, the telephone had put out a statement saying that whilst they want everything to become, they want to refrain from violence. and they, but they're still asking say women hit to protected areas and that both they have no intention of fighting. they think everybody should stay or, or attendance time,

as you can see, with a helicopter flying around, incredibly busy from the u. s. embassy, hearing people in and out, trying to bolster security on the city as they, as they get people out. charlotte, when i spoke a short while ago to be taught a bon international media spokesperson. so hale shaheen. i it was clear that what they're looking for is the other side to basically hand over weapons and join and join the tony bon. when you look at what this line this dropped recently from the african, an interior minister quoted by reuters tweeting that the transition will happen peacefully. that sort of confident line is it indicated that they are reaching an agreement for some kind of surrender to the tommy bon. well, i spoke to you a special representative zelma has little that a short time ago called him in. hi. and when we heard gunfire,

and we heard that the telephone, there was some talk, the telephone it into the city. i said, have the negotiations broken down. and he said no, in fact, they are going very well. so this they have as far as i guess, avoiding conflicts, they seem to be going well and avoiding some type of military takeover of coll but certainly the taliban holding the reins here. i mean, in the last 9 days they have managed to take and i've almost lost count, but i believe it's around 26 provincial capitals now of 34 and 9 days. put that into context for you. they haven't managed to secure a provincial capital in 5 years, even in that only held it briefly and that was condos. and now in 9 days that managed to get $26.00. so that shows you the amount of momentum they've had. and then recently, i mean, these provinces have been falling without a fight. they had, they've been doing deals with governors saying if you surrender to us, you can go,

you'll have amnesty. and i'll just take the safe and you can call me governor, know that happening in manga how this morning. so they're just falling over for the taliban and it's very to leverage left for the government. and i mean, what choice do they have? they are isolated this surrounded, and they've got very few conflicts to play. i wonder since you mentioned that you spoke short while ago that miles can be involved. so as any reflection on the magnitude of this situation, the magnitude of the turnaround of the situation compared to the events of november, 13th, 2001. when it was the tiny bond who was fleeing cobble. and with the support of us forces, we had the northern alliance entering and taking over the capitol. what sort of thoughts or reflections, if any, are you hearing from us officials, when you speak with them to just the dramatic nature of this turn of events

was all my little doesn't off. many personal opinions about the measure. it's always very effectual of this is happening or here is where we're at in terms of any type of coming from the us officials. you get very little of, i spoke to a communications person for the embassy yesterday, and he said, you know, i'm leaving now when you can talk to us with rebase us in casa from here on this very little comment from the us perspective. i understand that say for example, us general miller, who was in charge of the military operations here for the last 3 years. hearing anecdote actually from connection to him that he's very disappointed about the situation and to see how it is played out. and you can understand that he would be

when he was along side a lot of special forces. he himself was shot at in kandahar a couple of years ago. so it's very disappointing on a us military perspective to think of all the us forces her and international horses who die. not to mention the african forces who have died in the 10s of thousands alongside the over the last 20 years old to keep the taliban out of power only now to see them knocking on the door of cobble very dramatic moments. indeed, charlotte, thanks so much for staying on top of things for us and she'll come back to you as things will no doubt continue to develop quickly. there was all about us life from cobble ah,
