5:03 am
in the last week in and around the port again, if i'm living here with my children right now, i'm scared of the crowd and all the gunfire. there's no information. the us shouldn't have announced anything if they weren't able to take people out on the road to the north gate. this is where the telephone prisons ends and ask in special forces, begin specifically india 0 units. the 2 are separated by a piece of string. ah, the 0 unit span filming, so we record on our phones. all other ask and security forces surrounded, but they did not 0 units of funded by the ca and accused of night rates and human rights abuses pop out of the saw us. there is a lot of danger here. the indent 0 units, they doing a lot of firing. they threaten people. a lot of people are wounded. the us put them

in charge of this stretch of road to separate western forces from the tele bomb. still, as we filmed the telephone drove past unhindered at b, a port gun fire has been the main cause of injuries. these were the 0 units last week, shooting appears to be their preferred method of crowd control. the taliban has also moved in some of its most feared fighters. the buttery 313. it is a special forces wing associated with a powerful her connie and it works. they are now securing the perimeter of the airport. people are trying to reach evacuation flights because they say they are scared of the taliban gate. it's the taliban. they must get through 1st followed by 0 units in a more stretch of land. the us is, it is flying out tens of thousands of people for their protection, but 1st, making them cross
5:05 am
a dangerous road to safety. charlotte bellis al jazeera couple. let's go live now to john henderson with an update from washington. they say hello there, john. what's the latest on this incredibly important decision on whether to withdraw or not by august? 31. what are you hearing from the bottom administration? well, we're hearing that final deadline for the us to leave. afghanistan might not be so final, after all, that president biden will decide by the end of tuesday, whether to unilaterally extend that deadline. and he wants to do that in order to give the pentagon time to prepare for whatever happens then. and that could be significant. the gentleman has said that deadline is a red line, and the u. s. crosses it only at its own peril. president trump and negotiated a ceasefire for the u. s. withdrawal from afghanistan and said if the afghans, if the taliban don't fire or attach western troops until the end,
5:06 am
the u. s. would abide by its agreement to leave originally. that deadline was may extended to the end of august. and so now the issue is what would happen if the u. s. were to extend it and that cease fire would. and there are some us officials advisors to president biden, who are urging him not to extend the deadline for that very. ready reason that us troops could be in peril, and congressman adam shift left, a classified briefing in congress on monday, saying that he thinks the chances of the us getting everyone out in time are slim and growing. slimmer given the logistical difficulties of moving people to the airport and the limited number of workarounds. it's hard for me to see that being fully complete by the end of the month. and i'm certainly of the view that we
5:07 am
maintain a military presence as long as it's necessary to get all us persons out and to meet our moral and ethical obligation to our african partners. the white house is in any case, it will leave no american behind, but there are plenty of other people trying to get out. there are allies to the us that the us has made in a commitment to help get out. and then there are those special immigrant visa holders that is asking you help us in the war effort and feel that their lives might be imperiled by being left behind in an afghanistan run by the taliban. even allies question whether the u. s. can finish the job in the time it now has biden on tuesday, in a virtual meeting with g. 7. leaders will have to answer to critical state leaders who will demand to know whether everyone needs to be evacuated can be evacuated by next tuesday. that is the big question, but biden has been under enormous pressure and faced enormous criticism. his poll
5:08 am
numbers have gone down to less than 50 percent because of his response to afghanistan. this will be a critical decision for him. he will decide we are told by the end of 2 to bit whether he'll announce that decision by the end of tuesday, that we don't know plenty of moving parts to this one. thank you for your update there. john hendrick, live for us in washington, dc. taliban find his main mall have reached the outskirts of pen. she valley the last and early raging in afghanistan, not under the armed groups, control opposition. leaders and former government troops have created a resistance group, embrace and wakes. but on monday the taliban ray took 3 districts. the pansy that was seized by opposition forces me authorities in the us have approved the 5, the coven. 19 vaccine for general use. those who is 16 and older can now get the
5:09 am
job. it's only been in emergency use since december. there's hope the move will burst public confidence at a time when the number of new cases is rising. and gallagher reports from miami. as the highly contagious delta variant of covered 19 continues to spread hospitals in the south and midwest of the u. s. a. filling up over the past few weeks, cases of recent dramatically, with the unvaccinated overwhelmingly hit hardest. on monday months after the 5, the vaccination was initially given emergency authorization is now formerly approved by the food and drug administration. it's hope that approval on the rims of scientific data behind it will encourage the unvaccinated to finally get their jobs. if you're one of the millions of americans who said that they will not get the shot when it's until the has full and final approval of a f d a. it is now happened. the moment you been waiting for it here is time for you to
5:10 am
go get your vaccination and get it today. today. an important moment in our fight against the pandemic in states like florida, louisiana, alabama, and mississippi where vaccination rates were low. most people have been lining up to get their jobs even before mondays approval for front line medical workers already strained with a long battle against covert treating unvaccinated patients has led to widespread frustration. i feel some anger, sometimes it's it's trying to reach out to us when we've already extended our hand to help them. and they push it aside and ignored our advice and then they come back asking. and it's, it's frustrating. the approval of defies of vaccine only applies to those age 16 and over. but it's green life adults has already led to large employers and the u. s. military mandating vaccinations here in florida. west. 17000 people are
5:11 am
hospitalized with cove. it. it's hope 5 is approval, will boost confidence in the effectiveness of vaccines. the state is recording more new cases than any other with unvaccinated people, citing concerns over side effects and confusion fuel by misinformation. if those taking the weight and see approach now get vaccinated. the difference will be significant, others remain defiant. at a recent chunk, raleigh in alabama, the former president was booed when he suggested getting the vaccine. they did it. it's good. take the axis, but you got that. that's okay. sorry. you got your freedoms. but i happened to take the vaccine. if it doesn't work, you'll be the 1st to no vaccine hesitancy here has been a long running issue with vises approval. it's hoped it may start to fade, even as delta very cases hit new hives gallagher al jazeera miami, florida. a moron. this where joined by ali fat, him who is a vaccine. ologist,
5:12 am
an adjunct professor at the university of michigan. he joins us now via skype. hello there, ali. how significant is this development that 5 that has gained the full f d a approval in the u. s? i think it's remarkable. it's really great milestone that we are getting to the approval of the vaccine and that's make it like any other drug. it's not the emergency use, it's more of a kind of fully granted program and vaccine. and therefore, we are now opening a new chapter out for the new opportunities to expand it and to reach other populations that we are not able to reach before. so therefore, i think that's really a great opportunity for everybody. do you think this approval will help increase
5:13 am
vaccination rates across the us because it's certainly increasing vaccine mandates, which is what we had in the previous story. yeah, that's both part of the picture is really in the me and my the mandate meaning that companies are interested you sions, a colleges and other i can actually mandate vaccination without any problem because we have a fully approved vaccine is not an emergency use. and therefore, we could do without any problem, ask people in those institution, those are companies to take the vaccine. that's one on number 2, as we are in the report that are in the see. one of the reason for the hesitancy people are said that it's not the rule, this emergency not the enough data i was very ac. and so for the know now we have a program already vaccine that was approved after
5:14 am
a full sledge process including manufacturing, including safety, efficacy and ah, expanded to so therefore it becomes really very useful. and in addition to all of this, i think now pfizer could play a major role in the distribution and in the, making it available to people by, you know, stopping the engines for the marketing and selling the product out there. so that's a factor that was actually missing because all of that work that until now was done by the government, by the institutions of health departments and so forth. now if pfizer puts the machine to work, probably they will reach more people and will be more, are expanding the use of this vaccine. and you talking about just america oil, can we look more broadly and globally internationally?
5:15 am
what, what impact does these f, d a approval have on the roll out of fines or, and other countries? you know, many countries of the, when the world, the look at the f, b a. and then get the signal from the f d a. if they have the approves the vaccine, it means that many of the countries will just approve it. are there would be no, you know, it's an idea is knowing what the strict vetting and take you off all aspects of the vaccine. and therefore, it is very credible, this is really a push that many other countries will look up to the da and take that decision into consideration. and there will be no issue for our requesting special request like to do a clinical trial here and there. i don't think that the thing that will happen is exactly like any other drug. once it's approved by the f d a, it's going to be adapted into many, many countries. you know, we have a great experience with the private not a, or no more caucus. maxine,
5:16 am
dat file that had rolled out so in fact the, you know, the machine is there and the infrastructure is there, the experience is there and therefore we think that this is a really, it would be a great opportunity for the world to get rolling again. and expanding the use of the vaccine. well, that is some good news. thank you for your insightful ali fathom vaccine ologist and an adjunct professor at the university of michigan. thanks. he zealand has reported 41. you call the 910 cases on tuesday. the country's been in a strict nationwide lockdown since an outbreak of the highly contagious delta variance a week ago. it had been coded phrase for months before this latest search you zealand has been criticized for its flow vaccine. rollouts. fill a head on al jazeera, why he's already flo vaccination campaign has slowed down even more.

5:21 am
foreign forces to my left as a taliban fighter from bother 313 task force which is assigned to secure the airports parameters behind me or the us forces and had a barbed wire separating the u. s. forces deployed inside the airport and taliban fighters. us troops are currently organizing the evacuation of the withdrawing forces. in addition, there are also sorting out the afghan citizens holding visas to foreign countries. and those who are working with the u. s. forces over the past years, over there at the top of the screen, you can see afghan citizens standing in a single file. they were brought in here a while ago, and shuttle buses during the pre coordinated process. closer to us are us and foreign troops who are overseeing the process. that building is the main departure terminal of the airport, through which the foreign forces and eligible afghans evacuees are expected to

5:23 am
because even though they finally arrived, few seem to want them. the u. s. supplied half a 1000000 jobs under the kovak mechanism. only 20000 have been applied. this. why? in part it's because of this. the empty covey board that dr. colleen shows us in the non for profit gas gear hospital. i suppose at one point, you would have thought that this would be full of people. it was full last year. it was full. now it is very calm. we don't have any admissions. haiti's health ministry says only around $600.00 people have died of cobra. 19, the infection rate is also far lower than in many of the places. nobody knows exactly why. but since the pandemic isn't taking off need, there is a vaccination campaign for down inside of business that really present him haiti. and if it's not present, there is no need for them to get vaccinated. in this market,

5:25 am
followed up by major as creek in the country southwest. the latter could yet turn into a super spreader with hospital full and a multitude of foreign organizations flowing into help, or coven may, for whatever reason, continue to swim around this caribbean nation. if so, it will be the 1st piece of good fortune haiti's had in a long time. john home and i'll get a hold to denise is president has extended this suspension of parliament until further notice. nearly a month after taking on emergency powers case, a sex, the prime minister took the public prosecutions of politicians and for his parliament last month, his critics labeled, it occurred but said, said bad governments, i die economy and surgeon cove at 19 outbreak justified his actions. one of the world's most polluted cities is experimenting with a new technology to improve its quality. india's capital, new delhi,
