5:02 am
a month from now. there is no way to evacuate this many people without pain and loss of heartbreaking images. you see a television, it's just a fact. my heart vague for those things, those people you see. but biden has also said the taliban had so far kept his word of allowing access to cripple airport, but at least 20 people have died in the chaos of trying to leave the african capital in recent days. the guess nearly 6000 u. s. foreign troops are protecting the airport by the want of growing concerned that the field could become a target of attacks. charles stratford joined an evacuation mission from casa to afghanistan, heading east towards cobble airport. this flight is part of an international effort to move thousands of people out of afghanistan because they are afraid of the new rulers of their country that has suffered decades of war. for about an hour,

which is 2 and a half hours journey over. to libel this see call goes late on board or drug coverage. medical. others expected to return a call. please. we land on the nato control side of the airport. the situation is calm, far removed from the chaos outside the privilege offense, controlled by the taliban. long lines of africans wait in single file to bold the plains. these are some of the 10s of thousands of people try to flee. cobble today we arrived here, i suppose about half an hour ago. they're all for military. i cross sybil. lee, loading up with people so they are too afraid to remain in this country.
5:04 am
i think this is devastating. will you find the city that i called home the city that gave me the chance to be i think there's a lot of raw emotion. these are really emotion. i live by a lot of memories, a lot of contradictions, a lot of been a lot of suffering. but yet, cobble give us a thread somehow. and what you're seeing here in range is, is the pre mother probably being forced beneath all about maybe acts like it's all about, of course have said that they will be know reprisals against people who've worked with bosses or what's the media organizations for their family members. speak to people if they don't believe that. according to summer
5:05 am
students, they're all tens of thousands of people who over the last 4 years of work with nato, who have worked itself with western media. and it is these people that you see here today. what i'll call as a ride. you the last few minutes we've seen helicopters landing also, it's our arrival situation. but there is a little attention as to what is bigger scribe. this one of the largest history continues. one week after the taliban take over a couple, the on group is busy trying to form and you government, seated by leaders, are in talks with the commanders from a government figures in religious scholars. charlotte, but i suppose now from couple for the united states called him a global terrorist, and off is a $5000000.00 reward for his capture. yet, one week after the telephone took control her little man,
5:06 am
had connie moves freely around kabul taliban laid his schedule is full of meetings with afghan leaders that told again that we're going to collect every group and political groups, all the groups and united them and work together to build a better afghan, astonished and defended. senior taliban leaders have spent the week in negotiations . they say they won't and inclusive government. hello. hey, connie is a leader and connie network and remain on terra watch lists and under un sanctions . but now, here in carville up to one week, he's acting as a good. hey, connie even slipped at the home of hash met ghani, brother of the former president ushers. connie accepted the government but very frankly, i've been telling them over and over. and they do understand they know how to bring security, they are lacking totally when it comes to finances. and as far as having educated
5:07 am
people that can come by and run the country, part of the us telephone agreement, signed last year, was at the us will continue to provide funding to f going to some, during and after it's withdrawl. but since the tele bonds take over the us, his for is it more than $9000000000.00 and asking the central bank reserves and the international monetary fund says, afghanistan can no longer access its lending. the consequences severe and i have talked to the leadership of taliban over and over actually every night, almost at the hour of the morning. you never touch in any sunshine. look at it. the rich, the powerful will survive. it's the common people that it's going to get hurt. off the years and hiding that, had connie's have publicized, they returned to cobble, who lives in charge of the capital security. his nephew, enough, smith, the former president hubbard,
5:08 am
cause i and ceo of dealer of de la this week taliban deputy leader surgery dean connie also visited with this money to a our, our issue was with the occupation. there was a superpower that came from the outside and it divided us. they forced a war on us. we don't have any hostility towards any one level. and the taliban says it will not announce who is in the government and its structure until foreign troops have left the country in september. charlotte bellis al jazeera kabul. well let's take this on. we can speak to david sydney, who's a senior associate at the center for strategic and international studies, which is a think tank based in washington d. c. and he was also us deputy assistant secretary of defense for afghanistan, pakistan and central asia and joins is now on skype. david sydney, welcome to the program. first up at. thank you. good, president biden doubling down on how he's acted, but he's just putting a positive spin on a bad situation. his knee he is working hard to do so. the american people,
5:09 am
according to polls are very disappointed in president button. this comes at a bad time for him as he is pushing for a major domestic spending initiative and preparing for bi election in the midterm elections next year. president by didn't want this disaster, he had hoped to that everybody would ignore it. when they didn't, he had to move quickly and, and flexibly to try and make up for lost ground. whether that's going to work or not, it's still to be seen is not so much. it was the only withdrawal, is it? but it's just a matter of departure which is led to this. chaos isn't it? it's a matter of departure, the very clear lack of planning. and in many cases, the lack of empathy, the lack of understanding of the suffering, of the many people, the many thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of people who bought into what the united states was offering . who bought into values united states had who aided american troops aided america,
5:10 am
took american money to build a woman, schools that bill democratic institutions. all of those people feel betrayed. feel that they are at risk with a ton of bon. initially, the united states was not prepared to help them. now it looks as if the united states is moving forward to help them. but that's a double edged sword, because many of the best and brightest about the understand are fleeing leaving behind a country that will be even though we spike, we get more right itself. right. then as far as the withdrawal is concerned, i mean, you know, you could get us could not just commit endlessly well, the nicer many different ways night states could have done this. but you can argue they chose one of the worst ones a little over a month ago. all us troops were out and now twice as many are back and present by said that they'd all be up by, by the end of august. now it looks like that may not be the case,
5:11 am
either the taliban or tying a new government to the departure of the us troops. there's a lot of complexity here, but i think the focus has to remain on human suffering the human need and the people around the world who are working to help that. i think that number of countries better, for example, it's not a great job of the city assistance. so these back to jeez, but more need to step up. but most of all the united states needs to step up. how do you see the situation unfolding within afghanistan on the, on the sort of geopolitical front, there is some resistance going on, as you will know, in the pension valley, and as you said, the taliban have yet to formulate the government. well, the, the afghanistan, the thought about are taking over is very different than the one that they left behind. 20 years ago. most of the population of afghanistan does need to remember the talking about where the taliban will be able to enforce this kind of law that they claim is, is fundamental to them is very open question right now it appears in cobble. the
5:12 am
columbine are taking somewhat of a soft line, but reports outside of cobble bond forces have free reign. examination international media paid a very different picture. and as you pointed out, that there is resistance already starting in the punch here, which was the one area of the top i never conquered before. so there's a lot of unknowns here, and i expect it'll be a lot of chaos and violence in the days to come. and finally said, how important you think it is. it's the tell about dr. kind of pan tribal approach, more inclusive approach in the governance. that's what the taliban said. they would do the last time they took over and their words were not followed by deeds. so if they were to be actually followed by deeds, then we will then we would see something very different. i think a big thing to see is will there be women in a new taliban government? if there's no woman that's clear at the top of on are going to try and drag stand
5:13 am
backwards. but the role of women in the taliban regime remains the same. alright, appreciate that david sidney bear from this is center for strategic and international studies. appreciate that. thanks alot. thank alright, solid here now is there the deadliest civilian disaster in israel's history? a hearing opens interest on the killed 45 men and boys and april conflict over ancestral land in brazil. indigenous people marching a parent's march on the capitol? ah, ah, it's time for the journey to winter sponsored by kettle airways. hello. that is more severe. wet weather to come for parts of east asia in the
5:14 am
coming days in particular for those central areas of china. now, on sunday, officials issued the highest level for flooding across he now province, as they were expecting up to a 100 millimeters of rain to fall in just 3 hours. now we saw severe flooding across this area. last month we could see more as the may you front continues to pass. those 2 wrenching reins across to the east and the korean peninsula is going to be inundated with some exceptional amounts of rain in the days to come. and that's thanks to tropical storm or mice that works its way up north. it's weakening, but joining up with the front to bring those heavy rains. and we could see a lot of flooding and possible land slides too. as we go into tuesday, that system works. its way up into the north east of china, and it's going to bring some of the wet weather to the far east of russia and northern parts of japan. that was moved to south east asia with senior thunderstorms and showers for much of indo china, malaysia. and indonesia, but the heavier falls can be found in the northern areas of the philippines. we've
5:15 am
got found the storms rolling into manila and we could see flooding in areas here that should weather update. sponsor cut on airways. trust is fundamental to all our relationships. we trust banks without money, doctors, without really personal information. what happens to truck in a world driven by algorithms as more and more decisions are made for us by these complex pieces of code? the question that comes back is inevitable. can we trust algorithm in the 1st of a 5 part series ali, re questions the neutrality of digital deductions? trust me, i'm an algorithm on a jessina. ah, ah,
5:16 am
ah, okay, you're watching a reminder about top stories. this and joe biden says us let evacuation of americans and vulnerable africans is accelerated. right and says more than 11000 people have been lifted from capella for justice weekend. biden is also said the taliban has so far kept his word on allowing access to couple airport. but he warned of great concern the field to become a target of attract some taliban fighters and heading to the pension valley. one of the few areas, the group isn't control yet, lies just north of thousands of afghans opposed to the taliban, including former government troops. report gathered that what kind of government has evacuated. thousands of people from afghanistan is hosting them before they move to other countries. many of the afghan evacuees who fled that country had been sharing their stories, but how they despair,

5:18 am
the next flight arrived, we would have 800 evacuee evacuated through this process. most of them i should say, are female students or kids or families, in addition to journalists. now for those we have this accommodation we're in, can, i mean, currently it's almost maximum capacity currently towards around $500.00 plus. and we're currently preparing an over compound that can accommodate even a bigger number. category authorities have set up a cobit 19 testing center and organized truckloads to supplies 3 about keowee. they also had special arrangements to support the children. i was led to the temporary home, the group of 7 girls, or 20 years old, born in the same year that the u. s. had invaded afghanistan and overthrown the taliban. they escaped together
