1:00 am
denise, in the world today, all of them are big tech, with algorithms that they know that we use the more data we pritchard. we're in the midst of a great rates. the data and big companies around the checking empires are rising on a wealth of information and we other commodity in the 2nd 5 part series. 90 re examines where the corporations colonizing the internet like me, the popularity and power of the big tech on our jessina. oh i we are currently on a pace to finish by august the 31st. the sooner we can finish, the better the last president stand. all americans will be out of cobble by the end of the month. but it's the taliban, which insists that will be no change to the deadline for foreign troops to withdraw
1:01 am
. ah, no, i. mariam was in london. you watching al jazeera also coming up on the program. zombie is newly elected president. his want to invite to turn around the economy and unites the country, the vulnerable and too young to be vaccinated as the rise in child covet cases, has doctors in the u. s. pleading for more of the general public to get the job. ah, hello and welcome to the programmer with just a week now to go until the deadline to leave cobbles, airport, the u. s. president is insisting that his forces won't be there a moment longer. speaking in the past, our president joe biden said more than 6000 people had been lifted in the past day
1:02 am
and his target to complete the mission could be met. but this is caused concern among of the g 70 does, even though the white house position is that they will continue to work together on evacuation. we agreed that we will continue to close our close cooperation to get people out as efficiently and safely as possible. we are currently on a pace to finish by august the 31st, the sooner we can finish the better each day of operations brings at risk to our troops. but the completion barger study 1st depends upon the tale bond continuing to cooperate and allow access to the airport for those who are transfer, we're transporting out no disruption to our operation. in addition, i've asked the pentagon and the state department for contingency plans to adjust the time table. should that become necessary? well, alan fisher joins us live now in washington and their president,
1:03 am
joe biden allen in transition on that end of the month deadline. despite police from his european allies it's a message as much to the taliban as to the american people. what is essentially saying here is look, we have up the number of flights we're getting one out every 45 minutes. we've taken 70000 people out in the last week or so. most of them are guns and we can continue at that pace all the way through the 31st of august. but that is contingent on the taliban. so essentially saying to the taliban without actually saying to the taliban, if you start coming things up here, if you start making things difficult, if it becomes hard for people to get to the airport, then foreign troops are going to be in your country for much longer than you expect, and the taliban of said, we want all the foreign forces by the 31st of august. they're obviously security concerns around that. that is why joe biden has asked both the ministry of defense,
1:04 am
the pentagon, and also the state department to draw up contingency plans. but it is clear that he wants to get this done by the 31st of august. that of course, is an artificially imposed deadline. you remember that donald trump initially said that he wanted all american troops out of afghanistan in may. joe biden came into office in january and thought that that was too optimistic, essentially said yet we want everyone out by september, the 11th. that was seen as to political. so he moved it to august the 31st. so it wouldn't clash with the 20th anniversary of those attacks in new york, washington, and also the plane that crashed in pennsylvania. but this is also a political issue for joe biden, because every day there are pictures from kimberly port every day. there are people reporting that, that are american saying that they can get to the port that they can get out of the country. it is a big problem for job bite and because his approval ratings are slipping. and that is why he talked about what he was doing domestically when he began his address,
1:05 am
but really everyone was wanting to hear what's going to happen and get this done. and he made it perfectly clear. august. the 31st is my deadline. that's what we're working to. and these interesting reports allen, that the i direct william burns met with the taliban in kabul. is that sort of, what's been the reactions out there in washington? is it fueling criticism that the president is giving into the town of bonds? demands well i think there's an understanding that the taliban know control afghan is done. they know control, cabal, and they know control the access roads to the airport. so if you want to do anything there, you're going to have to speak to the people that are in control. and perhaps inconveniently for the united states, that is the taliban. the fact that the ca director there shows that they're not ready to put the secretary of state and, and remember with the pictures that might compare during the trump presidency shaking hands with the taliban. when he agreed that the piece deal with them that was meant to avoid the scenes that we're seeing now. i think there is either an
1:06 am
element of. busy this is real politic if you want to get this operation going. someone at a very senior level with the ear of the president. and the national security team really has to sit down with senior figures of the taliban. the guy who is in the seat when the music stopped with the ca director, so he got to do that. it would be understandable to that he would be in the region because this is a huge security operation for the united states as well. joe biden also made a point, and i thought it was quite particularly poignant that he said, look, we know that there is a risk to americans there from isis cade, the group that has become an off shoot of, i soul of isis. and he knows that there, there is a concern there, but he said look, they are also enemies of the taliban. so again, without seeing it, he was saying to the taliban, you need to keep an eye on these guys because if they start causing us problems as we withdraw here, this could be an issue for all of us. and so there was
1:07 am
a lot of subtext in the message that joe biden was putting out there. one look, let us get through to august the 31st, and we'll be a country. don't dumb us up in any way. and to you guys need to keep an eye on ice . ok. who you don't like anyway? and we don't like anyway because that could be an issue. thank you very much. alan fisher and washington. thank you alan. will in cobble a taliban is maintaining that there'll be no change that august. 31st deadline is who hearing is charles traffic reports from the afghan capital. the groups growing power and dominance is also causing a lot of wiring concern. another military aircraft takes off from cobble airport on board, some of the 10s of thousands of people who have been evacuated since the taliban sees power over the 15th. and its estimated tens of thousands more desperate to leave. but despite pressure from governments around the world, the taliban said again on tuesday, it would be no extension of the august,
1:08 am
the 31st deadline for the remaining nato soldiers and half canister to get out the other one over here. we will not allow the extension beyond august 31st, so the us to remove and evacuate all personnel by the deadline. which i had said the taliban is stopping afghans from going to the airport. islamic emory, he's trying to encourage people to go home, is that the american for inviting people to go to the apple they adverse policy of continuing to board people on playing the a port access route has been closed to avoid stamp the soon after the taliban press conference in carmel, the pentagon said it was confident, all american passport holders who wanted to leave could be. and if you doubt that i can't stand before the deadline, we are remain committed to getting any and all americans that want to leave to get them out. and we still believe certainly now that we have been able to increase the
1:09 am
capacity in the flow, we believe that we have that we, that we have the capability, the ability to get that done by the end of the month. the u. n's talk human rights official told an emergency session of the un human rights council. she has received credible reports of the taliban, committing serious violations, including the summary executions of civilians and restrictions on women. if under mental red line will be italian statement of women and girls and respect for their rights to leave a field movement, education, self expression, unemployment guided the international if you will read norms. in particular, issues next to quality secondary education for girls will be an essential indicators of commitment human. right. it's all about spokesman said women should, for the time being, stay at home, because taliban fighters were not yet trained on how to behave. we need to have
1:10 am
a procedure and a plan in place, security forces, not operational. they are not trained to deal with women. that's why we're stopping women from going to work. we asked women to stay home and their salaries will be resuming and come back to work when we have a system in place. with no extension of the august the 31st deadline, there are mounting concerns for tens of thousands of afghans that want to leave this country. that's all it says they have nothing to fear and that there will be no reprisals against people who have worked with nato foreign organizations or the media in the past. the trusting the taliban on the basis of their words alone is something that many afghans and the international community find it very difficult to do. child stratford, al jazeera, cobble loose and fighting. and i've kind of san has brought a major humanitarian crisis with it. a number of internally displaced people, many were meant to be moved to more organized shell, so by the government before it collapsed. now that task falls to the taliban as
1:11 am
well. mcbride reports from cobble they came here to escape the horrors of war. but now the fighting is largely done. the future does not look any less bleak. this 110 to shed by 4 families from afghanistan's northern province of to her like marian, a widowed mother of 6, who says she had to sell possessions to move here and escape the conflict. got on the market, got another, then forgot. no one helped us when we came here, we sold a tv and a carpet and have been economizing like eating less. but the money ran out 3 days ago were not in good shape. located on the outskirts of cobble this open piece of land was overrun with displaced people. as the taliban closed in on the capital. and the government attempted to move them to more organized camps. with the collapse of that government has come, the end of any official help adding to cobbles,
1:12 am
growing crisis of people displaced by war. that journeys began from places where the conflict has raged around african, it's done in recent months, and the taliban victory has brought a degree of stability. but for many, still, no clear idea of where to go next. on the other side of this shed tent, hulu has it right, wants to take his family of 9 back to their home. but he doesn't know if the house he is still paying rent on it, even standing vehicle, them with the more no more that was we don't have any money left to go back and set up again in our old if the government can look after us. that's better right now that government doesn't exist yet. when it does, it will be up to the taliban to provide support and tackled the many other crises facing us kind of down, robert bride al jazeera couple. ah,
1:13 am
be as new president has taken off as promising an economic turnaround, but he's got a challenge on his hands. i kinda hit you. lamer is tried for years to win the office in a former business and says he has a way forward for a nation saddled with debt. harmel, chaucer reports after 5 previous failed attempts, i kinda, he to, lima becomes the 7th democratically elected president. he defeated, formerly the edgarland in a landslide election victory earlier this month. the business man has promised to turn around the economy. and tonight, zambian is profit. we will create this budget on no one will be in such an environment where we can we can set coleman coleman budget from deposit development. it's clear much,

1:18 am
the taliban has been wanting people against traveling to campbells at for, to try and leave the country. that group strongly opposes any extension to foreign evacuation flight and our on the headline zombies, new prize and talk to each illema has been sworn in. it's a ceremony in the capitalist, aka, he vowed to turn around a flagging economy and tonight people, doctors in the u. s. why the hospitals might run out of space to street children with cove at 19. there's been a surge in pediatric. pediatric cases in the country and hit new. pandemic records . lack seen as authorized the kids age 12 and up leaving the younger ones. vulnerable to jo. castro reports the aurora cannon is 3 and battling cove it inside in oklahoma hospital. her mother is a nurse who says she likely pass the virus to her daughter from an unvaccinated patient. the mother posted these videos on social media to show the world the price
1:19 am
her young child is paying. writing. if you choose not to be vaccinated, you've made a choice for my daughter to your choice lead to my innocent child being hospitalized . pediatric intensive care units across the southern us are filling with children, diagnosed with cove. it who are too young to be vaccinated themselves. these patients sometimes can't breathe and we have to help them. we have to help breathe for them. since the delta vary and took hold, it's been dizzy here at children's hospital, new orleans and louisiana. a state where vaccinations are among the countries lowest. oftentimes we get to work and before we can even put our bag down, we hit the ground running for the day, and we're in and out of rooms all day. resuscitating kids, giving them oxygen increasing their supports. us child cobit cases declined in early summer, but has steadily increased since july last week. more than 120000 cases were
1:20 am
reported in children across the country. a substantial john from the week before. we are absolutely convinced that the more people that get vaccinated, the fewer people that will be infected, that's clearly demonstrated, and the fewer children that will be infective deaths remain rare among children. with coven, but doctors fear more children will die as more are hospitalized. after 11 days in the hospital, aurora is finally well enough to go home. soon. she and other young children may qualify for vaccinations. oftener health in new orleans is studying the pfizer shots in children under 12. the trials, medical director says the data looks promising and there have been no safety problems in participants. we have some of the children between the 5 to 11 which are so very grown up and they themselves want to participate. we had a little one that goes pull up the sure. so i me a 5 year old,
1:21 am
an application for f d, a emergency authorization for that age group is expected from pfizer in about a month. it couldn't come soon enough for the parents of some children. the challenge will be convincing those who refused vaccines even for themselves. heidi jo, castro, al jazeera, new orleans, louisiana. haiti was one of the last countries in the americas to start a coven 19 vaccination campaign. but in the midst of its political turmoil and an earthquake which has devastated parts the country, south west region, that campaign has now stoled, john holland has more from the capital, puerto france. another person in haiti vaccinated this time. it's thought to call do mess and get 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,
1:22 am
few seem to want them the u. s. supplied half a 1000000 jobs under the kovak mechanism. only 20000 have been applied. why? in part it's because of this. the empty covey board that dr. korean shows us in the non for profit, guess 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 if it's very cold, 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 a business that really present him hazy. and if it's not present, there is no need for them to get vaccinated. in this market, the streets were full. the faces bear. many don't believe in covered or mistrust.
1:23 am
the vaccines like them, i've done where because i believe in god, i don't believe in what people say the human being lives all the time. they never speak the truth. that's why i only believe god. we took to do a new because he was one of only a handful of people we saw covering up what i believe in science, who i believe in my mask. he told us the limited public health campaign. another reason vaccination is to would have done little to convince others. this is one of the here to do with the we've been able to find here in the capital port, the print, what 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 of cove it possibly take hold here in the country. the government has other things on its mind. not least recently assassinated president followed up by a major es quake in the country. southwest, the latter could yet turn into
1:24 am
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 get a hold to bring parts of a strange most popular state have started nightly curfews to contain the latest outbreak of corvette you south wales has struggled for rain in the delta varying under the country, so called 0 cove. it policy and neighboring you zealand government now to boost vaccination rates during another nation wide lockdown. as wayne, hey, reports enlarge parts of sidney the streets and now off limits at night. around 2000000 people have been ordered to stay home from 9 in the evening until 5 in the morning. the curfew covers areas of city most affected by the latest
1:25 am
outbreak of the covert 19 delta variance. any one court violating it could be fined and ordered to isolate for 14 days, but as the new restrictions were coming in, the leader of new south wales was already talking about easing some for people who are fully vaccinated. that's now around 30 percent of the state's population. obviously our 1st and foremost priority is to protect human life until it's fairly as possible while we do that. but we also have to accept that there's been no fatal nation on the planet that's escaped. the delta strain that escape having 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,
1:26 am
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 foods positive cases in 6 months, prime minister jacinta rod durn 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, red herring, but polling suggest there is public support for the government strategy of short, sharp lock downs. we just had a crazy amount of time that we had no coverage in the country which is allowed for us to run our we're going to have mass gathering up by that. although, right now, no, i do. we just know that if you do, just wait for it to get stamped out. it's worth the long run. with cases rising
1:27 am
each day, the prospect of having those mass gatherings anytime soon seems a long way away. but the government believes if the latest lockdown is working, the numbers could begin falling in the next few days. wayne, hey, al jazeera toner, new zealand, tunisia, the president has extended the suspension of parliament until further notice early a month after taking on emergency powers. at the same time, the leader of the largest political party, an actor has dissolved its executive committee. sorrow high right has more at the store. last night. he said it was an exceptional measure, a response to comic and political crises. on july 25, president clay side sax prime minister, sham, the she, she phrase parliament and fees to dish will power. he insisted was not to come to the school. it's a threat to one of the regions, few democracy center. they may not of these decisions have no basis in the
1:28 am
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. 's have been arrested in court cases being false, strikes al jazeera as bureau was shot down without an explanation. and to new york times, reporters were detained. briefly, guy sigh though, is promising freedom of expression. and then with that, and if it was despite the crisis that tunisia is living, it's still operates with freedom of expression and human rights built on the constitution and faced with some difficulties in some areas or with some administrations than these aren't intentional obstacles. while science has been trying to reassure to his unions and human rights group concerns still remain. there is an administrative decision called s. 17, but it's an engine state. it was us before for so many years, especially with regards to veterans. but he been thing suspects of terrorism
1:29 am
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, a protest present, siad decision appears to be popular boats, and is he 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. so this, since the crackdown support, he has softened its rhetoric and acknowledged past mistakes. you know that then another color has been difficult for everyone. let's be honest, even enough to blame to that. it should have been stronger, stayed away from political and fighting and focused instead on economy shipments to
1:30 am
meet the demands of tunisian society. the arab spring changed and dramatically and put the country on a pass away from dictatorship and towards democracy. but there's still a sense of uncertainty as soon as he and wait to see what case i had long term plans for the country proved to be so at a height of al jazeera, rolling stones, drama charlie watts has died, a london hospital at the age of 80 is published. this said he passed away peacefully, surrounded by family. the drama joined the stones in 1963, and how one of rock's greatest rhythm sections more than 50 years. in april, he withdrew from the groups tool because of an undisclosed health issue. ah, look at a main stories now in the us presidents insisted the deadline for his forces to leave cobbles. apple by the end of this month will be met. but it's cause concern
1:31 am
among his european allies, other g 7 leaders, even though jo biden's position is that they'll continue to work together on a vacuum issues. we agreed that we will continue to close.
