bridge the government seems to tell, yvonne is relying on human shields and losing people shot the phone from around the world. the price tag to the tokyo games have officially felt $15000000000.00 that already the most expensive summit games ever stage. i me joe biden's downs his ground the u. s. president. in 5th, it was the right call to pull troops from the stone. mixtures cannot and should not be fighting war and dining war. and afghan forces not willing to fight for themselves. ah, hello, i'm molly inside of this is al jazeera ally from dough. so coming up biden's statement

comes ours off to things that combo airport that shocked the world as off gowns clung desperately to the side of us planes. and all the news. haiti struggles with the off to me off and quiet counseling, major storm approaches. ah, i spent another day a fast moving and dramatic developments in afghanistan as the taliban consolidate the hold on the afghan capital, there have been scenes of chaos at couples international airport. it is now the only part of the capital that isn't on the taliban control. and thousands of afghans have fled or tried to flee their desperate to get out of the country. in one instance, people clung to the outside of the u. s. military plane, as it ready to take off several fell to the death once the plane was born. while

dressing the american people on monday us president joe biden cool pictures from cobbled gut wrenching. but he defended his decision to withdraw american forces from the country abide and blame the government of outgoing president sharp. connie failing to make peace with the taliban, and promise that the us soldiers that will work to secure will be at port a top us general has held talks with taliban representatives. here in doha. well, we'll have a report from the grounds in kabul, but 1st shambler town. see on what biden had to say. joe biden attempted to keep public opinion focused on a promise kept up to 20 years. the u. s. was finally leaving galveston. i stand squarely behind my decision. after 20 years, i've learned the hard way that there was never a good time to withdraw us forces. but neither the president or any

administration official has been able to address the chaotic matter of that withdrawal. despite biden's proclamation that the buck stopped with him, he lashed out both of the africa and military and the african political leadership that fled even saying the u. s. that wanted to evacuate more people earlier but was stopped by couple. i know there are concerns about why we did not begin evacuating atkins civilians sooner. part of the answer is some of the afghans did not want to leave earlier. still hopeful for their country. important because the afghan government and his supporters discouraged us some organizing a mass exodus to avoid triggering, as they said, a crisis of confidence at the pentagon officials insisted that they had role played every eventuality. there wouldn't be drawn whether that included such a swift taliban takeover or whether such a possibility had been communicated to the president. plans are not always

perfectly predictive and you as is well known military maximum, that plans don't often survive 1st contact and you have to adjust in real time. depending on says, it expects the $2500.00 us troops and cobbled at the airport to be supplemented within 24 hours. but up to a 1000 more and says, apple operations have resumed. in addition, the u. s. has more than $700.00 africans who were eligible for special immigration . visa had left the country over 48 hours, bringing the total to almost 2000. the president's opponents have been swift to deliver a withering commentary. honestly, ministration looks to me like i couldn't organize a 2 car funeral and maybe it's not too late. i hope not for the present to put enough troops in around cobble do at least get out all the americans. and as many of the afghans as possible who are our friends, who are interpreters, who were a lot on whom we were a lot all of age years, it is

a sad day for the united states of america. however, when pressed mcconnell, as with many others in washington, suggested his favorite option was a permanent military presence and kind of stone which would be against the wishes of a majority of americans. biden administration appears to be hoping that eventually the chaos of the last few days will be forgotten, and instead the president will be seen as the commander in chief who finally brought america's longest war to an end. jabber times the al jazeera washington. while emotions enough gun, this dawn, arranging from astonishment to fear of what lies ahead on the streets of the capital arm taliban fighters on now, a regular site. i'll just there is walden mcbride has more than that from couple me the city of cobble has experience. so much up people for decades, and this is another change to get used to. and one that's far from easy to go. most of all of our customers because most of the got the situation for now. no one can

say what's happening at all. the people are just lost and confused. in the space of one romantic day life on the streets feels completely different. this is one of the most obvious signs of the transformation that taken place in literally overnight. the whole of the center of cobbled is protected by these 45 checkpoint concrete blocks. various normally guards carrying automatic weapons and humvees with heavy machine guns on this morning. nothing. the people have been getting used to the novelty of a new force in charge. the subject of intense curiosity. as taliban take up checkpoint, duties on the roads. just to let me know yet i don't know the law or whatever used to fear us. they've now seen them would your ideal and that we are from the soil. i don't want to stand to be destroyed. but there's widespread nervousness about what

this do taliban rule will look like. many businesses and shops remain closed that the raw signs of life returning to normal ammonia. if this piece, then everyone will benefit the businesses of the workers. there are deep rooted fears about the erosion of basic frights, in particular for women and girls. despite assurances from the taliban and about a return to cruel punishments for certain crimes. but many still remember life under the previous taliban government being at least crime free for the most part of the board with the board and everybody will be. nobody's kid will be kidnapped again for rent. with the, with a sudden collapse of the african government, the people have cobbled new leaders have been thrown together faster than any had expected. now get together that feeling their way forward into the new reality. robert bride al jazeera cobble. and douglas oliver is

a senior fellow at new america think time. he joins us on skype from cole, pepper county, in virginia, and many thanks for joining us from the program. so as we heard the earlier, the us president holding firm on his decision to pull our troops off, got us on by and large are americans with him. well, we don't have any really good, fresh poland. but anecdotally, it certainly appears that that's the case that the vast majority of americans wall uphold by the images they're seeing. do support the broader policy of disengaging the united states from the long war and afghan, the spam. he did admit, president bided in his speech that the events at cobble airport. the evacuation generally unfolded very quickly, too quickly, but he didn't actually explain why, to what extent will he and his intelligence team be held responsible for those scenes with been watching the airport?

well, you know, ultimately he's the american president and the buck stops with him. but i think when we look back wall, none of these events have surprised any analysts. all of these events were predicted. i don't think even the most pessimistic analysts would have predict that happened quite this fast. so in essence, we've been seeing the movie that everyone predicted very much fast forwarded and fast forwarded in a way that made it impossible to make decisions quick enough and react in a way that got the united states ahead of events. will lessons be learned from what's happened? one would hope, on the other hand, it's, this is not the 1st time we've seen this type of withdrawal from a, you know, from a capital in the, you know, the saigon analogies are certainly out there. they're being used. and so one hopes

that one learns lessons, but sometimes life just catches, you know, the timing of all this is worth noting because we off was approaching the 20th anniversary of 911. if there is another attack tara attack at some point in the future, could biden's decision here enough? got us don't come back to haunt him. certainly. and i think that's part of the reason that we've never seen someone withdraw from afghanistan to date. the, the benefits of doing so we're relatively low and the risks was remote were extremely high if it came to pass. but i think it's, it's very unlikely. unlike on 911, our security services watch very closely who flies over the ocean. we are sharing between airlines. it's an open secret that pretty much everyone, every major intelligence agency knows exactly who's flying over the atlantic every day. so the idea that someone is going to sneak into

a country in the western hemisphere and conduct a terrorist attack is much more remote than it was 20 years ago. douglas, olive and senior fellow new america, think tank many thanks for joining us on al jazeera. thank you very much. the united nations security council held an emergency meeting on afghanistan on monday and the sexual general and totally good terrorist called on the taliban to respect human rights and offer amnesty. he said he's particularly concerned about the violation of the rights of women and girls. the international community must be united and utilized all available instruments to ensure the following. first, we must speak with one voice to oppose human rights in afghan is done. i call upon the tale abandoned all parties to respect and protect international humanitarian law and rights and freedoms of all persons. we are receiving, chilling reports of c, v, restrictions on human rights throughout the country. and i am particularly

concerned by accounts of mounting human rights violations against the women and girls of afghanistan, who feared to return to the darkest days. out of the math to get us a james space has more from the united nations. the statement calls for immediate cessation of whole hostile it is, but it also calls for talks for, to reach and let me quote, a new government that is united, inclusive and representative, including the full equal a meaningful participation of women. so they're calling for fresh negotiations, an african lead process leading to a new inclusive government. now will the taliban accept that? and what leverage do the security council have of the taliban? certainly with her to from the ambassador of pakistan. he wasn't invited to the security council meeting became and briefed reporters and many of chrome told us that he believes that the taliban are talking about some sort of inclusive government. and he thinks that that is definitely

a possibility. what is clear is that there are some of the key political leaders who were allied with the government in cobble, who are still there. i think the only leverage that the international community has of the taliban right now is the whole issue of recognition at the meeting of the security council. the african ambassador was the ambassador that was appointed by the government that no longer exists. the taliban, i'm sure would like to have the seat at the united nations and be recognized by all the countries of the world that i think is the only thing the international community have to try and convince the taliban to broaden government governance and bring in other figures still ahead on al jazeera, the change of god in zambia, after winning an election that is attend, the president lex lays out his vision on the u. s. government class, a water shortage in the west. as west was around the region dropped to dangerously low level. ah,

the same on to state this plume of moisture impacting q shoes, chicago, and haunt you. but i actually think the bulk of it will stay out toward the sea of japan. we do have some dry spells for central areas of indo china. this includes bangkok, so mixed of sun in cloud in the days ahead. and as we go further, south southeast asia, still some heavy pockets of rain impacting per day. and for the philippines, because our southwest monsoon is not as active, that rain backs off just a bit on tuesday. sponsored call cut on airways. more than 10 years after the global financial crisis. you've taken home more than $480000000.00. your companies now bankrupt our economies in the state of crisis. i have a very basic question. this is their last home the us held responsible . i will be fabulously wealthy and i will not take any price for it. thank you,

a governing party. the opposition suzanne began to to the payments from britain in 1964. president louis was criticized for human rights to be massive. unemployment and corruption, president elect has hit lima not to manage expectations. many zambian want him to do think differently. the the president elect is promising to turn around the country. fortunes saying your 5 year term in office will be a new chapter to zambia nominee hill where to see if you will deliver on his promises the. 6 metallic out there. c in the news, the us national hurricane centers warning hasty could be hit with strong winds and flooding. tropical storm grace makes land full. f is that it could hamper rescue efforts as the desperate such for survivors from saturday's magnitude 7.2 as great quantities. but that's whole has risen to more than $1400.00. not the 6000 people

radar like 2 countries, chile is moving full speed ahead to deliver a 3rd dose of the call with vaccines starting with the senior citizens. the focus now is to boost people's immunity and the economy. yet the faith of thousands of young people who've lost one or both parents does not seem to be the government's priority. right now. hungry is just beginning to discuss in orphan's pension. but experts say an all inclusive program on a case by case basis is necessary. that include psychological care for the children and relatives who can hopefully care for them and guarantees that children won't be separated. come up with seen. how is it possible that one and a half years into the panoramic we hadn't seen this crude reality before. thousands of children have lost their loved ones, not just in chile, but in the entire world. the fabric children are lucky to at least have

philippine general hospital, the country's largest public health institution has stopped accepting don coffee, 19 patients of the problem if we have a lot of non corporate patients who also are filling up our badge. and so that will demand more nurses and doctors to take care of them. so this rapid increase, the number of cobit admissions made us realize that we can serve both the situation at the philippine general hospital reflects what the health department has been reporting daily infections of more than 12000 were nearly a week and more people die more than half way through a 2 week walk down in its capital region. the philippines continues to see a spike in corbett 19 cases. but this current wave of the virus isn't limited to manila. elsewhere in the country, the number of infections is rising as well. area we need dudley spam and he lives in chasm province. more than 100 kilometer south of manila,
