these are wanting shots. it's being reported at least that things have been a little bit more orderly today, certainly compassion to, to, to with exchange. we've seen in the last few days we've been speaking to people who i've been hearing up. some of the things that i've said trudy brady, pretty big one guy, you've worked with western media. many is very articulate. say he just like this is being a brain, right? because he was an incredibly sad time for, for, for afghan stuff. but he said that he wasn't prepared to give probably the benefit a rob mcbride is also in the afghan capital. he has the latest only political discussions taking place there. in kabul city itself, the political negotiations go a pace, and there are expectations that in the coming week we will hopefully see some kind of breakthrough where the cheap one of the senior taliban officials molar. but he

is here with his core group in cobble. we know that in the coming days he will likely meet with me because i a former president and also a dollar dollar. he is a very influential figure from this last administration. now, before those talks happen, which presumably will lead to the setting up of this new government both cause i end up meeting with other taliban officials here in kabul, it was all very young teal. it is all very nice. it seems behind the scenes there seems to be paving the way for this new government to take take power here. while the taliban are also saying that they are reaching out beyond cobble to some of the 20 or so, of afghanistan's $34.00 provinces to former governors. to bureaucrats, government officials, really with the same message, trying to ease, trying to ease tensions. ease is here which do exist still across the country. one

week, one weekend, telling officials that you don't have to pledge allegiance to the taliban. we're not going to demand that. you do that if you want to leave the country so they say you can do that all aimed at trying to repeat these messages about the inclusiveness of this new government acceptance. but of course, you know, we keep saying a lot has to be matched with actions, and there are a lot of a lot of very skeptical people here. and i've got to stand right now. brian cobble, they're well to the us. now heidi ho castro is in washington dc for so heidi what more we hearing about us efforts to, to get more people out of cobble have them. we know the president biden is meeting now with his national security team. earlier this morning as visors taking to the us airways speaking with press and defense of the president's actions . of the white house says $25000.00 us national and afghan allies,

a great respect and admiration for him as a person, and i understand he inherited disagreement of february 2020 which, which was very difficult. and i also understand if you are a political leader, you're under political pressure, people, people want the engagement to end. but we've got to realize we were in a situation where our engagement was dramatically different from where it was 10 years ago. never mind 20 years ago. and where we could have managed the situation and the problem with what, what's happened now, this is, this is my worry is it's not just about the african people and our obligation to them. and, and obviously you feel, i mean, distressed when you see where you see people realizing what they're going to lose as a result of the taliban coming back into power. it's not just about the african people, it's about us now security of the current, the u. k. prime minister bars johnson has called an emergency g 7 meeting to discuss the crisis in afghanistan in a tweet. he said it is vital. the international community works together to ensure

ah, be the hero, the world needs right now. i was, ah, oh, the me. hello again. you're watching edge. reminder of our top stories this out. thousands of people in afghanistan are still struggling to get out and make the official says 20 people have died in and around the airport in the past 7 days, which military is calling the conditions extremely challenging. british prime minister bars johnson has announced a virtual summit of g 7 leaders on tuesday to discuss the african crisis. he says

the international community must co operate to ensure safe evacuations. israel is carried out to s sites in the gaza strip off the protests at the border. security forces injured, at least 41 pallet thing in demonstrators. israel said, protest as through rocks and explosives, a hurricane grace has killed at least a people long mexico's east coast. it is one of the most powerful storms they hid the region in years brought winds up to 200 kilometers an hour damaging buildings and causing flooding. and power outages hearken already has been downgraded to a tropical storm as it begins lashing the north eastern coast of the united states . but it still packing strong winds and torrential rain. millions of people are bracing for flooding, falling trees and power cuts a spring. and john henry, who is in mall, talk on long island forest in new york. so john,

what's the situation there right now? well, we're feeling the winds of tropical storm on re, which it may have been downgraded overnight. but those are some significant winds that have been sweeping up the coast, but it's not really the wins that are expected to do the most damage with this particular storm. as it moves off the coast of new york and where the eastern knows point in montague, on long island, it will head toward rhode island and connecticut. and as it does so, it's going to bring heavy water with it. that water will slow down as the storm slows down, they typically do when they land. and that actually makes it more dangerous because that brings a lot of water rising, flood waters surging into the coast. and that's what can cause a lot of damage. power companies, particularly in connecticut, say that they expect tens of thousands and over the region,

possibly hundreds of thousands of people to be without power. and that's because 15000000 people were in the path of this storm. fortunately for the people of new york, it was downgraded to a tropical storm from a hurricane, but it did have sustained winds when it was a category. wonder again of 121 mile or kilometers an hour and up. those are hurricane level winds and now that it's downgraded, it is the water that people are worried about. so even as it passes on flooding is a big concern here. and so our power outages as that storm moves forward and it's expected to hit connecticut and rhode island fairly hard may be doing so now as i speak. and then what, what officials in massachusetts and elsewhere are hoping is that a peters out before it gets up there. alright, stay safe, john for the moment. john henry lie 1st there in months hoping you attention is

growing between russia and nato in europe. after a series of incidents between their military forces, moscow says nato spy planes of stepped up, attempts to gather intelligence in the black sea region. and your simmons spend a day with british royal air force pilots stationed in the romanian coastal city of constant they call them q r a's quick reaction alerts from the physical sprint to the thrust of take off. within minutes, these nato fighter jets can intercept or trek russian. warplanes is the latest incident, top left of the cockpit, russian fighter jet, intercepted of the romanian coastline. it's close with no room for mistakes. 10 meters would seem quite close to $21.00 on initiated. since relative procedures is totally normal, it's been set to in that range. but for a full commander's there's nothing normal about what's happening. probably my center since then we've had, i think anytime you fly inside

a flight information region of another country, not following the normal without flight plan, then i think it's not the sort of behavior we'd like to see in the special community in the, at their own stand by 247, and when the alert comes fast moving is an understatement. when this plane gets airborne, it could fly it up to 28 kilometers a minute. the nearest russian airbase is less than 280 kilometers away. it's in crimea, which was illegally annexed by russia in 2014. that's the main reason for added tension in the black c, j, your, or those bob or somebody in june, british naval maneuvers and related to night. so that's a confrontation with russian forces. washington tell her story. i will continue to follow the internationally recognized

3 and less than a week ago, a russian military commander said nate so surveillance, including spy planes, had nearly triple since 2019. russia sees what nato calls in their policing neighboring states as an escalating threat. romania is by us built at 16 to up graded samples, remaining for start growing and those are the big process of modernization. and we will not finish with the 16. we will continue to develop and to upgrade the remaining net force. but as brinkman's ship appears to increase alongside it, then the danger of one small mistake causing more hostility. even open complex simmons, which is 0 constant remaining in did in indigenous leaders from across brazil are preparing to march on the capital brazilian. it's ahead of a major supreme court ruling that could lead to the boundaries of their protected

land. being reviewed monica yanna care of reports from poverty time seems to have stood still in the colonial video, but i cheat 250 kilometers south of rio de janeiro. but upon the hills. a conflict is brewing. indigenous leader near the back of his fighting to reclaim what she says or what any unsettle lambs i was in. she was so frail, we are constantly being invaded. even during the day we surprised men with knives, and somebody set fire to our bathroom. what we were having a village meeting. you know the father, the village chieftain bought a hector's of land in 1998. since then 32 people have settled here, most of them women and children. until recently, the village got along with the neighbors, not anymore. now there was something tension cleared when they went on,

he asked the government to denmark in their lands and brazil's national engine foundation for ny said the tribe had the right twin area $300.00 times larger than their plots. one of those majors i said in 2017, when i officially recognized that 2370 hector's were indigenous lands. the next step should have been to decide what lands if any, should have been demarcated. but the process, a stone wall when jack both sonata was elected president the following year, neil the neighbors said yeah, works as the cleaning lady in a chalet nearby says her family, another's feel betrayed. they've grown up in but she and fear that if the area becomes an indigenous reservation, they'll lose their homes. i want a bucket clean, cut them up, bass. why did indians once so much land? why can't they be happy with what they bought? the traditional system will decide who has the right to watch, but we'll know that these days money decides all. if the dimmer cation happens, that what these will take over this whole valley. a place were farmers and

fishermen, but also well known actors and foreigners have invested time and money and which president jade wilson out. the tourism industry should further exploit contributing to the rising tension. since last year, a military police car has been patrolling the indigenous village up there 3 times a day, 7 times a week. the patrols were requested by rio deja nero's program by rejecting human rights defenders. those who knows but they are connected. the automation is to keep, not her alive, so she can pursue her legal battles up with the mayor of better. she has taken sides and has asked for the dimmer cation process to be a know. what did he feel? my dear, it's one thing to have a d, my cation process going on in the amazon or national park. but here, where there's a local population that's been established in this bound to be conflict for noise

and decision to rule one way or the other has only made things worse. this last conflict is only one of 100 still pending and growing. lost thousands of indigenous people. wait for the supreme court to decide their faith. monica not give, i'll just 0. but she of thousands of parents and teachers in peru have joined rallies, pushing for schools to reopen. most children have not been in class since march last year. that's when the government closed all education facilities because of the corona virus pandemic. madana sanchez has been at a demonstration in lima. the children, parents and teachers marching together, demanding the government, opens up schools. children said they're fed up studying online since march of last year. we want to go back to school. we don't want to see traps at home behind a screen. we want to go back. aaron, say homeschooling is taking it's toll. children are not learning enough. you're

suffering as a result. yeah, but they know how to, where mosques, i'm more concerned about their mental health. they've been locked up for too long. the pandemic hit nearly 40 percent of schools had infrastructure problems, some lack healthy environments without sewage or even running water. now these protesters say more than 60000 schools are ready to receive students, but the government prefers to favor the economy before education is not, not, i guess there's no balancing the policies a good one mole. and there are thousands of people walking around the same unconcerned about coded. according to our recent unit study, we do is one of 8 countries who schools have remained fully closed up until now. more than 10 percent of schools are partially open, most in larry seals for children are most affected by homeschooling, 12 year olds and small brother hidden yes. to see your share, the only cell phone,

the family own to study one and it doesn't always work and it's difficult. sometimes we lose the signal. other times we don't have electricity to charge it. it's very difficult. while many families are afraid, their children may get cold in school. or recent opinion poll says nearly 70 percent of parents, one schools reopen. experts say that decision is a risky balancing act and not just the risks are very high either way. if we go back to school, there's the risk of contagion. if we don't, the cost will be enormous for children's future. on friday, the government declared a state of emergency or its education system. the government consider can feel too risky to send all the children back to school. not only for them, the to 50 percent of them received the vaccine. official said the 3rd wave of corona virus is just beginning and thousands of people to die. that's why they see fully reopening schools now is simply out of the question. again, essentially,

i just see the a conservationists in sierra leone are racing to say the largest known concentration of an endangered species of chimpanzee. they want to plant millions of trees to reforest the animal's habitat in the north eastern, loma mountain range. but as the mighty greece reports, it may be too little too late. last clearings and now taking over what used to be pristine forest, where giant trees, one stood tall and chimpanzees roamed conservation to say the area swarming with illegal timber lockers and porches. and it's becoming increasingly difficult to stop them. like this more bechtel being one, but not the will. because if you go across the country everywhere, there's a lot of logging going on. one of the serious mistake we made was to kind of open the lift the ban on the logging in the timber trail. 4 years ago,

the government in theory leon eased the ban on the timber trade. selling of wood piled up since the bad. but that decision only opened a floodgate of uncontrolled illegal logging. in the shadows of the low mountain home to $1500.00 western chimpanzees, the month sonya community once hunted, the animals down. try to make amend. they want planned thousands of trees. they helped cut down. that is, i've always, when a benefit to the health of the forest means to health and safety about people. it's the source of medicinal heard which are also disappearing. logging and perching of also led to the shrinking of our rivers and streams. the government says it also wants to plant $5000000.00 trees to reforest last areas. but conservation is said, the effort may be too late for endangered animals like the western gym, busy the la, sustainable. because as you're talking about planting new trees,

we still need to stop the county if that is going on with the existing. we could that this, we are the problem. if you cannot wait and loose that to build new stuff, it's not going to sierra leone is home to more than 5000 western chimpanzees. more than 1500 of them. i found them the normal mountain range alone, and they're far from safe. scientific data collected in parts of africa show for every often chimpanzee. 8 to 10 adults may have been killed, suddenly owns normal mountain areas home to the endangered western species. conservation is under pressure to save them. after the resumption of lugging on the return of porters. as a trees are cut down, while chimpanzees lose their habit it. often chimpanzees had been sent to centuries . like the tucker gum i chimpanzee century, for protection. might even he ex but say butcher's, loggers and powerful individuals hungry for land.
