2:07 pm
people have been evacuated since this operation started ramp 10 days. ago now, increasing pressure on president biden to give the august the 31st to extend that date. the deadline date beyond august, the 31st pressure bouncing on him for the democrats in the us from fellow nato countries, france germany and the u. k. the chat about a call saying that always the 31st is what they describe as a rated line, and they've threatened consequences if that red line is, is crossed. nobody knows exactly what those consequences all but you know, it's very tense around the port. we have seen sporadic violence over the last few days. the most recent of which monday night we had a member of the afghan security policy was killed by an identified gunman. just how the taliban will respond to any kind of extended deadline remains to be seen. but
2:08 pm
one thing is very much for sure that when these extensions were made, before the talk about was in control of cobble, they say that people can leave this country legitimately on commercial flights. if they have the right visas on the right paperwork. but of course, nobody knows when exactly those commercial flights will resume. so yeah, worrying situation, increasingly wiring situation very tense around the airport as this deadline. blues, of course, charles, you know, as you talk about the taliban, the red lines. i mean, they are exactly warning the international community, this is what they will do, whatever those red lines are, they're also not tolerating any dissenter, nor because there is a build up of forces contradictory ideologies. and in that, perhaps another class that will work with the international community as well. yeah,
2:09 pm
very worrying science in an area called a friendship valley that's around about $110.00 kilo just north of carnival. the valley has basically become a historical point of reference of a defensive positions for afghans that, for, for example, against the soviets. in the 1980s, it is now under control of a group called the national resistance front of us can, is stand is being headed up by a man called masoud. the son of a very famous militia had the commander. we understand that there are at least 2 members of the form of government there, including the defense minister and the vice president. these people are demanding that the taliban could prove that the government is going to be inclusive. and he's going to basically be open and accountable and
2:10 pm
include the great variety of ethnic minorities in this country. of course, the taliban has already said that that will happen. but worryingly hundreds, if not thousands of taliban forces we now understand have surrounded the pan shit valley. we get reports that there are still on ongoing negotiations. but i like to tell you that it seems very unlikely that it wants to be an offensive, which is looking increasingly likely by the taliban against the these, these opposition forces. they wouldn't stand to charles, the opposition sharp forces would be wiped out relatively quickly because they simply isn't the support the weaponry support that they need in this relatively isolated part of the country. of course, if there is to be able fighting, then of course as huge consequences in ramifications for what's estimated to be a pub relation of around a $100000.00 people living in the pan she valley. and that has a kind of a snowball effect, of course,
2:11 pm
on or more people potentially being internally displaced. worrying situation as this evacuation out of the airport continues for the day, but so it's charles was impossible. who stay molds, it'll have to leave people behind. it is going to stop. while germany foreign minister has suggested it may take long to get people out beyond the end of august, the 1st native country to publicly say it's and talks to keep cobble apples open for evacuations into september. instances mitten was added to a kind under them, wherein talks with the u. s. turkey in order to keep calling operational to make civil evacuations. if these people are possible, we will have a role to keep discussing that with the taliban when the doing say, because they will have a special role in that. the leaders of the g 7 nations, all due to hold a virtual meeting on the crisis. later on tuesday, the, the barbara has more london. there are big questions that they're expected to talk about. the 1st is,
2:12 pm
if and when to recognise the new taliban administration. in kabul, the 2020 agreement signed by the trump administration actually explicitly states that the taliban is not recognized by the united states as a state. beyond that, there are questions of whether in fact there should be renewed sanctions on the taliban to pressure them to commit to the human rights commitments. we've been hearing what the un human rights chief has been saying about violations, reports of violations coming in already. so whether to try to pressure them to step up and meet those commitments and also commitments on international relations. but in the short term, yes, that is pressure on president biden. the u. k. would like to keep it 1000 and also military personnel in cobble keep the l. it's going. they would like
2:13 pm
a few more days beyond the deadline of next tuesday, but ben wallace, the u. k. defense minister in the last 3 hours, i said that is unlikely and that the u. k. will not be able to do anything. if the u. s. does withdraw on that deadline. the shadow foreign secretary of the opposition labor party here in the u. k. is urging bars, johnson not just to come up with a plan, not just to push president biden on ellis, but for a longer term plan, including to help countries such as pocket stone, which have already received millions of african refugees over the years and expected to receive more in the near future, she says that boris johnson can play a leadership role in trying to get the g 7 nations to try to agree. some sort of assistance plan for the region will fill hail on al jazeera. we'll hear from me guns. he was k television rule. the cell is a new life in the united states that story after the

2:26 pm
that campaign has stalled. jo hallman has more from the capital puerto prince. another person in haiti vaccinated this time. it's thought to come do mass that he's in the vast minority firstly because vaccines took so long to get here. haiti's campaign only began in july. and now, because even though they finally arrived, few seem to want them. the u. s. supplied half a 1000000 jobs under the kovacs 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 here post to do with kind of the we've been able to find here in the cap and to pull the print. i want medical experts say to us is the golden window of opportunity. it could be being missed because people now could be being vaccinated before mode. thirdly, strings as curve it possibly take hold here in the country. the government has other things on its mind, not least recently assassinated president 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 coded 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 just have to bring a new initiative is helping to bring joy to the lives of children. in garza, a cinema of us has rolled into town and it's come with a message of hope. as gillian wolf explained, one by one,

today, gaza is home to a little more than 2000000 people, but only those with permits are allowed to travel beyond its borders. inside there are limited options for cultural experiences. so families try to enjoy stones at home. but the cinema bus offers a welcome change. in my head, the cinema is really nice. i wish we had a big cinema like this one. so we could always go to it because we don't have access to things like this. it's the 1st time i've watched a movie and cinema like this, a movie about love and caring about yourself, a message designed to reach everyone along the gaza strip, joint wolf all to 0. ah . your children's there with me still wrong. the reminder of on top stories you in human rights.
