is this another potential flash point for conflicts voices from different corner? every house here has someone who has made it to the top of ever. it's not the one the several time program that has been your i to not punitive you today on algebra . i caught between the taliban and chaotic, evacuation 1000 with a dense cesspool. atkins, wait to be lifted out of the country. i'm showing a balance of cobble international airport with thousands of people still struggling to reach their evacuation like ah robert and looking up their line for my headquarters here in the clean up. we have

communicated clearly to all of us that they should provides a safe passage for everyone who wants to leave the country. nato secretary general tells alger there is urged the taliban to help civilians reach campbell airport, full social to supplies and desperate for help. hospitals in haiti of struggling to keep up after the earthquake. a malaysia's king named former deputy prime minister smith. somebody called the country's new leader. ah, we saw the gun stone work. hales continues at car black port where thousands of people are desperately trying to catch flights out of the country. but they're facing several obstacles, including taliban road blocks, some problems with paperwork. people who don't have clearance to leave, we're gathering at the airport, getting in the way of those who do have the right documents,

while the us and native pledge to accelerate the evacuations. nate, who has held an emergency meeting on the crisis in august dawn and its efforts to get people out. it said lessons must be learned about the speed that the taliban took over the country. salzberg told ounces era that nato allies say there's a need to extend its timeline to evacuate people from cobble we have been able to evacuate the thousands of people over the last days. and the situation at the airport is so much better now. and i was on the, in the beginning of the week, but we really recognized that the huge hall sca that remains to be done and that was the main issue discussed at the meeting it today. the reality is i've actually, we have many allies for offer to host to receive afghans. people coming out from i've gone down, we have many planes, enough columnist on the cobbler airport or in the region. the main challenge was to get people to the airport on into the airport. so we have communicated clearly to

it's all a bond that they should provides a safe passage for everyone who wants to leave the country. and especially when enable them to go to the airport so many dollars and especially in the states they have had well, di, we'll called operational tactical compacts with, with all the bonds to make sure that that happens. we have seen some progress, but still it is a very difficult situation outside the airport. it's very unpredictable at the meeting today. many allies express the need to extend the deadline to the timeline beyond the 20 and 31st of august. and that's because they see that with the current pace, we will not be able to get all the people who want to get out by the end of that timeline. i'm concerned about the i've seen the last weeks, including the very rapid collapse of the african security forces on the political

leadership. when we made a decision to end, then they thought us us and they to persons in gone on. we were aware of the risks of all the bond returning back to the very copied the false to collapse over over of the political leadership and the security forces that was not anticipated. and that of course has created some additional problems. so the problem is you are faced with today, then i think it's extremely important to remember that the reason why we went into afghanistan was to prevent of cornerstone from being a safe haven for international terraced after the type of tax organize from up on this on against not the states and 911-2001. for trinity, ezra prevented any attacks on the need to other countries organize from of gone on . and now it is simple to do what we can to preserve those gains. therefore,

were translated for the us army, and garrison says that she is losing her mind, trying to find a way out of the country. i tried 3 times to get an insight to the airport. and the 1st day when i tried to get inside, it was solid on an outside deal. it has to get it inside, but the door was closed. we were not able because of the rational, the people too many people on the street. they were trying to get an inside and because of the rush, most of the people were killed. the children especially ran the they were the target deal killed, most of the people were harm. on the 2nd day, i tried to get through the military military base from out there. the come on from class, i'm away while i one day or should sit on the people on the street. and no one were asking about our documents, whether we are eligible or not. i saw most of the people even the don't have ask you to i national identity. the question is, why did village all these people to get an inside and do people who are like me and did the trick it we have all do. i mean why we're left behind. i had all my

deafness together in beth, you never asked me for any, any vice the commission, any mention because everything was completed and, and i was expecting that they would do the evacuation and not the way, but i never expected to be like this, this respectful for as for their, i've done my life. if they were supposed to do like does, why did bother us, they should tell us at the 1st. so we could do something to us, at least he could good at it to that country. but right now, airport, this block, we cannot go to country right now. what it, what they should sure this system out. and they should have all the entity numbers, those case numbers, which they are all the applicants. and if they can call it jasmine broadcast, doesher vela says, a family member of one of its journalists were shot dead during a house search and have gone. it's done, right groups and governments to step up efforts to evacuate and protect journalists . now the committee to protect journalists is wanting that women are particularly at risk and says since the taliban took over to prominent female journalists have

been borrowed from their jobs and they document the homes of media workers, res, it and others attacked while covering recent protest in july 11th, shoved him, that one is a nice present of the national african channel r t a world. she says she was turned away when she arrived at work. when you, when i went inside the building today for the 1st time since the taliban had taken over to see if anything had changed despite wearing a job and showing that i was carrying my id card. i was told by the thought on that the regime has changed and that my should go home to stephen butler is the program coordinator at the committee to protect jer, unless he says, and he didn't list subbing target by the taliban than those trying to leave a struggling italian spokesman 2 days ago said that they were going to respect the free and independent press under lay down conditions. and we've seen the very prominent news program on taller news that's continuing to operate,

including what's happening out there. there are women reporters and having women, castro newscasters, but on the streets can be a very different story. it's not clear that the taliban militants who are on the streets in cobble or elsewhere around the country are getting that message. and they seem to have a lot to themselves. and so they are attacking journalists, being journalists, and of course, we know that certain journalists are being sought out by the telephone. their homes have been searched. we know one case where a journalist was actually in the house at the time, he ran out the back when natal on arrived and they fired after him. he managed to get away. other journalists have received phone threats. very prominent women journalist was told, you know, your time is up and she is gone into hiding. we've been trying to get her out so far. unsuccessfully, she has not been able to get through, you know,

here every day to plead his father's case for evacuation. and i don't want to go out on the gate. i am scared. but what can i do? the taliban run after us. they chase and they beat us and i saw women under people's feet in a stamp and i saw a dead body taken from the airport and put in a car and we have no other option when i don't know what the, the telephone is in charge of securing the airport and protecting us forces and evacuation from being overrun, they a forceful in their crowd control, relying on gunfire and beatings to disperse. the thousands who gather us forces can be seen around the perimeter. just meters from tele bomb patrols. people plead their case for evacuation raising paperwork to the tower, but they are asked to move on. afghans complain americans have fired towards them also. now they've got the one that we're even scared to bring their documents with us every day. we're even scared of bringing our documents with us every day. we're

here because we want them to do something for us because we've done them favors and now we're left here without a future. every day, the numbers vaskins looking for an exit swells. hundreds gather outside the british, french and canadian embassies, hopes brutes. but rumors spread faster. most wisdom besieged have closed, but they don't know that. $20000.00 applicants have applied for us special immigrant visas, including their families, to make sure $70000.00 to eligible for evacuation. there were thousands more foreign nationals and africans who worked with other nations, also waiting for flight out. more than a 100000 people have been evacuated with how of, on the on sunday. and still the us is expanding its eligibility criteria and doubling the number of evacuation flights and this weekend. yet many people tell us they are too scared to come to the airport because it would mean passing tell a bunch of points for those that do attempt it. they braced the crowds and gunfire,

and the disappointment that they would likely be left behind charlotte bellis ultra 0. cobble rushes president, says the world must prevent the collapse of of gun his thumb and prevent what he called terrorism entering the neighboring countries. let him imputed made the remarks after meeting with german chancellor anglo merkel at the kremlin. he said taliban rule is the new reality going forward and that other countries must not impose valleys on afghanistan. well, jen holly's falling events for us from london. and of course, that meeting between merkel in 2000 and comments about i've kind of sunday, obviously have very different experiences and opinions about how to move forward when it comes to the country. they see things very differently. clearly these 2 countries and i've got to stand, will have the potential at least going forward to drive a wedge even deeper in relations between russia and the west. particularly of

course, native other grounds for cooperation. well, you know, possibly, and they will potentially explored those. in this meeting, the agreement was obviously reached what nato would most like. germany as well, would be to be able to find leaders of influence inside afghanistan in order to prevent it again, becoming a haven for foreign group spent on launching attacks on the west and also to try and preserve some of the fragile games over the last 20 years, not least, women's rights, minority rights and so on, but they don't have those leaves of influence anymore. russia though, does it still has a diplomatic presence there? it has direct ties with the taliban. its relationship with the taliban is probably relatively strong. the question is, is there, are there common interests between russia and they to are their grounds to collaborate the chief amongst them? probably stability. both sides wanted to see stability in afghanistan. so those are the talks would like to continue mister pruitt and said that what he would like to

see a good neighborhood relations with i've got to stand, as you said, warning against imposing outside values on the country and saying he hoped the taliban would make good on its promise to restore order, he's previously of course, noted what he described as positive signals coming from the group. so level optimistic view from the russian president. then the view as we know all to well now from nato countries in germany. jenna, this is very much as well. the song really full anglo medical, she's about to leave office as the country heads towards elections a in a few weeks time. there are other areas though, all barrier disagreement between the 2 countries and valley bella. ruth ukraine just to name a few and was presumed she would have touched on those issues. what do you hearing about? she certainly didn't touch on all of those issues. she's ever been forthright with mr. boot and i go back a long way, 16 years. she's been in office, they both have sort of coincidental backgrounds in eastern europe. they both speak each other's language even if they've not often seen eye to eye,

but they have continued talking through some of the dark is chapters of recent russia you and western history. yes. she brought up alexi, nevada, the criminal critic she has demanded, he be released and did so again, mister putin said he's being held being punished for breaking the law. she brought up elevation abuses against human rights activists. of course, bella luce and alexander lucas shank. close allies of russia and she asked that piece talks be revived with ukraine after she leaves office. they've stagnated, somewhat. mister putin shot back with ukraine is not behaving according to the peace deal. and these on the verge of walking away from the peace deal he thinks, altogether so plenty to disagree upon. as i say, they've always continued talking despite disagreements. 20 times angular merkel has visited at president putin in the russian capital. this though. her last as chancellor, germany gentle linda forest, thanks very much. now the dental from

a powerful earthquake in haiti on saturday has increased to nearly 2200 people. the queen damage buildings, housing critical services, amongst them, southern haiti's only medical oxygen plant. and that's where a phase of a worsting humanitarian crisis as the country struggles to contain. the rise and kind of virus cases, the organization of american states is holding of actual meeting to discuss the situation. let's go straight over to john hallman, the capital porto prince. of course, this meeting is getting underway. what word are you getting out of it? if anything at all to leave the haitian prime minister already. el rey is already spoken in that meeting and he gave up the tale of the dead. you also said that there were more than 12000 people that were injured. in this he gave the number of homes that have been destroyed, which is all the time increasing as well. but he said that the haitian government has good its loins. those were his was to deal with these calamities and that

they've been sending heavy digging. they've been sending civil protection. but he said that even all of those efforts of hardly put them in the destruction that's been caused in the like, we just actually go back from the da's office own. we just spent most of the last few days looking around to see what's happening with the communities that and i think some people, especially in those communities, would disagree with his assessment of the haitian government doing all that it could. we went to one community called for on whose local representative said that 98 percent of the houses were destroyed, that we spoke to so many homeless people. and that local representative said he actually phoned up the prime minister who told him just to wait. we saw other things, especially in the city of tai which is not unexpected. it's probably the biggest city in the disaster zone in the stadium that the football stadium is just full know of tense. but of plastic sheeting blankets being held up by sticks and desperate families who have lost everything,

just sheltering beneath them. no toilets, no water. not really any aid because most of it gets robes the moment it gets to the gate of that place. so you saying things that the government surely must be able to come to terms with and start helping out with if there wasn't such a moment, it seems a bit of an organizational vacuum, possibly corruption as well. now that organizational vacuum part of that is because the president was killed just last month and be the prime minister. you recognized him the cool with the oh yes, but fled to chronic instability. they said that they should get back to a fully functioning democracy. that's what he wants to go, but obviously this quite would have put back elections as well. so he sees a bit of a, a situation at the moment in the, it's in the middle of storm season. it's just have this biggest quake. it's got so many people in the south west of the country that's suffering and struggling. come to terms with that and to deal with that john hobo imported brands like so. johnny's, now,

the coven 19 dealt variances falls any way of restrictions unlocked downs across the asia. pacific region. australia, new zealand have been cases increased while thailand has now passed 1000000 infections. so jaila has around it from bangkok, australia's biggest city city seeing a surge of new cobit 1900 infections, will now be locked down until the end of september. people in the worst hit suburbs will face a nighttime curfew. the city 5000000 residents are now required to wear face mass outside. the wider state of new south wales has had 3 consecutive days of more than 600 new cases with drug everything as piece. and now it's time to bunk down and i can't stress that enough. it is time all of us to bunker down. take the said seriously as we can, although so many of us have the vast majority have this 3rd wave in australia fed by the delta virus made its way to new zealand this week. the nation was living free of covered 1900 for 6 months until tuesday, when

a case was discovered linked to the outbreak in australia. a snap national lockdown was extended until midnight next tuesday, after more cases were detected in several cities. 11 new cases were recorded on friday. we just don't quite know the full scale of this delta outbreak. all and all that tells us we need to continue to be cautious and that we need more time before the complete picture. we need to change our c things with one of the worst cove in 1900 outbreaks in asia. on friday, thailand marked 1000000 cases. since the start of the pandemic. until april, the nation was able to minimize the spread of virus 97 percent of all coded 900 cases have occurred in the last 5 months. vietnam has also successfully contained the virus until late april, but a surge of infections in recent weeks has forced officials to put the largest city hotel men into locked down for monday. as tokyo prepares for the start of the paralympics next week. concern grows as the city is also seeing

a search of new cove in 1900 infections. that's overstretched. hospital organizers admit that the games will be held under difficult circumstances. they'll be using the same covered 1900 playbook implemented during the olympic games focusing on frequent testing and limited movement with the high vaccination rate and few new infection. singapore has started to relax its covet 19 restrictions. this allowing some to head out and enjoy a break for us. we definitely feel safe. we're all wearing our mast except when we're eating the tree. and the back to me is so high here. everyone here is needed . so we felt like it was a no risk situation, so we're happy to be here and indulgence many others in the region. hope they soon will also be able to enjoy. got either al jazeera, bangkok, black market demand for exotic fish, founding mexico. the gulf of california is endangering around porpoise fishermen, claimed the crisis on the government's mismanagement of environmental protection policies. as manuel rapids reports fishing his hard
