urgency very acute yes indeed. the high commissioner for human rights michelle opening proceeding that is a special emergency session of the human rights council in geneva. she said her office had been inundated in the past the days and weeks with reports of human rights abuses by taliban fighters. abuse is when it comes to women and girls when it comes to human rights defenders, minorities, people used to work in the price or former government workers, people who are very scared for their lives. people who are trying to flee, she said good during this meeting, there would be a discussion on a possible a resolution which would call for violence and all sides to really end for human rights to be supported for the taliban,

which here the international rules. we then heard from 2 african speakers, including the former african ambassador to the un, and they were very strong speeches. indeed, 2 delegates who did not miss their words. he said the international community has a responsibility not to look away. but for act now it's all very well having all these discussions and talks about human rights. but what is needed on the ground is really help and action. they called for a fact finding mission to be set out by the human rights council that this would mean people would be deployed in theory through afghanistan, that would be on the ground documenting abuses, documenting abuses, and holding those responsible for any violations accountable. they also said that all states must leave their board is open to allow those. you want to leave afghan to stand who fear for their lives to be able to leave,

and they must be humanitarian assistance for those people. latasha butler empowers thanks very much for the update. now the clock is ticking for us and allied forces to withdraw. the great with the taliban western forces are conducting one of the biggest humanitarian alison history from the airport in cobble. now us present, joe biden is considering extending the august 31st deadline, but the taliban of war, the consequences. if western forces stay beyond that date, charles transferred his monitoring events forth from the capital cobble. of course everybody about human rights meeting in geneva was referencing what's going on at the port. charles, really getting the message across, not just to the international community but also to the taliban. but those that want to leave must be given time to leave and must be given the facilities by the international community headed at the moment by the americans.

that's right. so hale and as you say, increasing pressure similarly mounted on the president biden, to extend that deadline. we know that the french, the germans and the british are asking for an extension. it's all about have coded a red line, anything beyond august the 31st and spoken about consequences. what indeed, those consequences would be, remains to be seen. the situation at the airport remains as, as, as catastrophic, as it has done pretty much for the, for the last week or so when you speak to people in these queues. as we did yesterday, when we came to the airport, i was referred to by one of the speakers at the you a gentleman i spoke to, he said the people in these queues represent the cream with the crow. this is nothing more than a brain drain. and he's going to have huge impact on the future of this country. it's all about saying, well, you all free to leave this country. the deadline remains of the 31st,

but you'd be free to leave the country on what there's only one describes commercial flights. off to that time, if you have the visas in the right paperwork, but of course nobody knows when those commercial flights would start. so there are huge questions as to whether the deadline will be extended and if indeed it is how the child will respond. and of course, charles, you know, again in this meeting in geneva, a great deal of detail about human rights abuses across the country. and that conflict between people, what ness you might say that freedom and continued freedom that they've experienced last 20 years than taliban rule. but we are looking at a potential class north of the capital with 2 very different ideologies, perhaps coming to blows. not sure i'd, i think it's fair to say that the, the fighters to the cooling. so the,

the national resistance from, for afghan, is stand in the pan shit valley which is north of gobble, have a lot more of a secular vision if you like, for this country, then the taliban and do say that. they say they say they have around a 1000 fighters in this area and they all do bonding from the taliban. that the taliban full and inclusive government. a government that includes i think by nor cheese and women. it's all about her promise to that. but worryingly certainly the last 48 hours or so. we know that thousands of tommy bon fighters have now surrounded that valley. it is an area that they haven't controlled. we understand the last 20 years. so we stay in the past in the defense against the taliban. so you say worry potential development developments that if indeed there is a battle, this could have huge impact on greater displacement, even more displacement of people across afghanistan. which of course would impact

any kind of if there was to be an extension of this deadline of the evacuation of the thousands of people that continue to be lifted from cobble airport. for the moment, we'll leave it. charles continued to check in with you through the charleston ford there in cobble force. the telephone insist that civilians will be able to leave even after foreign forces withdraw. charles mentioned, but many a skeptical and a rushing to leave the country. charlotte balance has more from cobble apples, thousands of people at cobble airports going nowhere beyond the gauge of plains that us president biden promised would take them away, but it shops, so they giosel from position the criteria who is most recent by the telephone, from all that on the saw so my mother has been some idea port for the last 6 days, but the rest of our family still kind of side because of all the people at the gate,

knock them out of them. this is the north gateway. most people are asked to enter through, but in recent days it has been closed because of what the us is, security threats from iso. but for most people here, the biggest threat is a stampede. is dehydration and gunfire. more than 20 people have been killed 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 taliban prisons ends and ask in special forces. begin. specifically in d. s 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 india 0 units. they're doing a lot of firing. they threaten people. a lot of people who did the us put them in charge of this stretch of road to separate western forces from the taliban. still, as we filmed the taliban drove past unhindered at the poor gun fire has been the main cause of injuries. these were the 0 units last week, shooting appears to be the preferred method of crowd control. the taliban has also moved in some of its most feared fighters. the bedroom, 313. it is a special forces wing associated with a powerful her connie at work. 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. get it's the taliban. they must get through 1st followed by 0 units in a mall, a stretch of land. the us says it is flying out tens of thousands of people for their protection, but 1st, making them cross a dangerous road to safety. charlotte bellis al jazeera couple. well still had hail out there will hear from the us. can see the scape telephone room to something new life in the united states. story after the break to stay with. ah hello, good to see you. i want to share with you something we don't see often this line of thunderstorms, essentially stretching from new south wales, straight to new zealand. there you see them lighting up there. that's about a 2000 kilometers, stretch all associated with the cold trying. and certainly we saw that in new south

wales with some snow falling ground level. so if we trace where this weather maker is right now, the bulk of the energy out towards c, but traveling in a counterclockwise rotation, it's still spinning up some showers for victoria. and also south australia on wednesday, of course, a lot of what, whether a diving down into new zealand, mostly for the foothills of the southern alps. but we've also got an northwesterly flow, so liquid, it does the temperatures in some spots. we may hit 20 degrees on wednesday. flooding has been a concern on sumatra island over the last little bit, but we're starting to dry out. same goes for java. jet carter, 33 degrees with a mix of signing cloud. we have been tracking tropical depression or mice just skirting south korea, but look at the damage. it's done here. dropping more than $600.00 millimeters of rain within 24 hours. and we see that energy now impacting horseshoe and hole keidel on wednesday. so paro has a high of 24 degrees. that sure weather update. see assume

the the stories that need to be told find away and demand to be heard. the opening the window into another light and challenging perception and personal endeavors in epic struggle with the colossal sacrifice in individual journey witness showcases, inspiring documentary change the word on al jazeera. oh, a

book about what's going on there with me. so rom, the reminder, volatile stories you and human rights chiefly show bachelor, says she's received credible reports of abuses against civilians and areas of the taliban control. addressing a special session of the human rights council. she spoke about allegations of executions restrictions on women and depression of protests level remains kale, think the reports of the 14000 people waiting there with at least 10000 more outside hoping to get in before the deadline to fill out. western trips ends next tuesday. now the troops draw down from a gun, his thought is expected to put pressure on us president joe biden as a virtual g 7 meeting. later on tuesday. the leaders are expected to ask for delay . 200 has more for washington, dc. the final departure date for the us from afghanistan might not be so final. after all, by the end of tuesday, president joe biden is expected to decide whether to unilaterally extend the august

31st deadline for the u. s. to withdraw from afghanistan with just a week to go, congressman adam shift left, a classified meeting on the afghan exit plan, saying the odds of getting everyone out are slim and growing slimmer each day given the logistical difficulties of moving people to the airport and the limited number of work arounds. 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 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, afghanistan's new taliban leaders, they extending that deadline is a red line. the u. s. crosses at its own peril. then president donald trump negotiated the deadline with the taliban in exchange for a promise. the us troops would not be attacked until then. we are well aware of,

of, of the state a desire to buy the taliban to have this mission completed by the 31st of august. i would tell you that we 2 are still planning on completing it by the 31st of august . that is the mission that women signed by the commander in chief assigned to us. and that's what we're trying to execute. some white house advisors are reportedly advising biden, not to change their timeline, fearing an end to the ceasefire. packed with taliban since the taliban seized control and cobble on august 15th, the u. s. is evacuated. $37000.00 us citizens allies and ask in special immigrant visa holders. the white house says it will leave no american behind. we believe that we have time between now and the 31st to get out any american wants to get out . even allies question whether the u. s. can finish the job by the end of the month at a virtual meeting of g 7. leaders on tuesday biden will have to answer to critical

state leaders demanding to know if everyone who needs to be evacuated can really get out by next tuesday. if that deadline doesn't change in cobble, and in the capitals of anxious allies around the globe. time is quickly running out . john henry l. j 0 washington williams. good refugees are heading to the us. now some of them are in the state of virginia where they're being temporarily house. that's an expo center. phillip, else we're meeting them in the town of chantilly. i have been travelling for days, they are weary. they are worn, they've been terrified, but at least now they're safe. it's a hiring experience for them. for sure. these are some of the thousands of off guns that fled cobble. they got out where so many have failed and all still failing. many leaving families behind some creating them amidst the chaos and the misery. i mean that that moment still happy because the baby so healthy. this baby born is

its family, fled cobble heading to a us base in germany. the mother went into labor in the earth, suffering complications. now here in the u. s. she and her child are doing fine. they are so happy that you're here. and the family is nearly 11000 people have been evacuated from afghanistan in just a 12 hour period. the majority of coming into dallas, the big international airport, me a washington d. c. feel unsafe just they were put on the bus is driven the 1st few miles on american soil to an expo center. what was the trickle is now a flood of people, each with their own, harrowing, terrifying tales based buses and our arriving fairly regularly. perhaps one every hour, every hour and a half, the refugees get off. they go into the convention center, but this is not their final stop. it is simply a layover somewhere they can get something to eat somewhere. they can use the facilities, they will then go into places like texas, like wisconsin,

and even further afield. the journey here in the united states, as only just begun. they will that this man hasn't heard from his wife since she left cobble. you have to just wait and find that where she ends up landing. i'm sorry, you're going through that. he tells his story to her, nasa she is hearing a lot of these, and afghan interprets up with a local muslim support group. she was out the airport helping those refugees make sense of that new surroundings. she has had some harrowing tales. a lot of these people have made safety, but they've had to leave their families behind and they don't know what happens. yeah. it's really traumatizing because they have to pick and choose to want to come with them. even the people who went to the airport, not everybody was able to get on the plane across the street. a flooring business is now leading the local effort to get essentially, to refugees, foyce to max. and john, an african refugees himself is working. non stop to get packed, ready donations are turning up almost every minute. we're all here to help. we all

humans. we see what's going on over and i've got a response. and so for those who find themselves spending the 1st night, what is going to be the new home? there is so much to make sense of so many questions. so many worries, so much relief. they have made it many others will not fill lavelle al jazeera in chantilly virginia, w and his warding that 5000000 people in the emily. on the brink of starvation, the new humanitarian affairs chief martin griffin says, address the security council. he's calling for an immediate cease for more than 20 people. 20000000 people in yemen, need humanitarian and assistance, and protection. that's about 2 thirds of the population. and it continues to be quite an astonishing figure. but out of all those needs, there is perhaps one overarching humanitarian priority. and that is to stop the

famine today. about 5000000 people are just one step away from succumbing to famine and the diseases that go with it. 10000000 more are right behind them. famine isn't just a food problem, it's a symptom of a much deeper collapse because you know, in many ways it is all of yemen problems rolled into one that demands a comprehensive response to his president and extend to the suspension of parliament until further notice. nearly a month after taking on emergency powers at the same time, the leader of the largest political party and honda has dissolved as executive committee cytokines as well as the stuart. last night he said it was an exceptional measure, a response to can all make and political crises. on july 25, president claim side side prime minister sham, the she, she phrase parliament and these traditional power he insisted was not to who. so

this call, it's a threat to one of the regions, few democracy centers. these decisions have no basis in the constitution, nor in the law. this is a coup against the constitution against the 2011 revolution and against liberties. in one month, the president has dismissed and replaced the ministers and promised to crack down on corruption. the several m. p.

but it's an engine state. it was used before for so many years, especially with regards to preventing suspects of terrorism from leaving the country. this is expanded to other categories including m, e, 's, former as government members, some businessman and so how much time this is going to be is an essential issue. since the freezing of parliament, there's little appetites of protest, present science decision appears to be popular. button is in say they're fed up with high unemployment and rising poverty. both made was by the pandemic. and they blamed the main political parties including the largest sonata cities. since the crackdown support, he has softened its rhetoric and acknowledged past mistakes in africa. then another comment had been difficult for everyone. let's be honest,

even enough to blame for that. it should have been stronger, stayed away from political and fighting and focused instead on economy shipments to meet the demands of chinese in society. the arab spring changed dramatically and put the country on a pass away from dictatorship and towards democracy. but there's still a sense of uncertainty. aston isley and wait to see what case i had long term plans for the country proved to be so at a height of al jazeera philip being present to go to teddy has accepted his parties in dolton to run the vice president in 2022 to test a 6 year term in office will end in june of the same, yet he cannot legally run for office again. for the potent say his bid for the vice presidency is an attempt to clean power. despite international criticism, detached ruins popular amongst philippine voters, no possible strangers. most populous state have begun monte car feeds to contain the latest outbreak of coven 19 u. south wales has been struggling to limit the adult of arians infection. and the

cases and we just have to be real about that. but the handling of the situation by new south wales has increased tension with the leaders of other states. they say the virus must be suppressed before lockdown can be relaxed. sydney was slow to impose restrictions at the start of the outbreak leading to cases in other australian cities. and new zealand. new zealand has one of the lowest infection rates in the world, but like australia, it also has a low vaccination rate, which is partly why the government says it will continue with its strategy of trying to eliminate the virus while speeding up vaccinations before beginning to open its borders early next year. in response to new zealand spoof positive cases in 6 months, prime minister jacinta rod during ordered a nationwide lockdown. it was introduced last week and has already been extended until at least friday in the largest city oakland. its been extended until the end of the month. it's a tough time for businesses like fledgling events, company,
