deadline. insisting that forces must pull out to prevent the risk of attacks. the taliban takeover has even prompted the wild bank to freeze its aid payments, draft canister on it's expressed concerns about its impact on development, especially for women. and now the wild food program is saying, a combination of drought conflict and covet 19 means millions of africans could soon face salvation. unicef is wanting that 10000000 afghan children and now in desperate need of humanitarian assistance. child stratford has relations from cobble. the closer we get to this august, the 31st deadline is more chaotic, seemingly becomes around the airport. we had a team down on the southern gate earlier today. they come back and describe scenes of a panic and kale. so they said that the taliban will have to fight in the air to keep people back. they will using tear gas. they spoke to one woman who said that she
8:03 pm
had all the necessary papers. she had a western visa in her passport. and she said that she was terrified, but was prepared to take the risk of a bullet. if it made her getting on a plane. she said that things were complicated by the fact that there were a lot of people in and around that southern gate who didn't have the requisite paperwork. the taliban say that people can cross, but they have to have a visa or a western passport or some sort of official invitation from another country in order to pass those checkpoints with respect to other areas around the airport. the tale bond seem to be acting on what they promised last night, which was to try at least to prevent people going to the airport. and they set up checkpoint, a checkpoint around 5 kilometers back from the northern gate. that gate is the scene. we've seen those huge crowds in recent days and sporadic violence. it's a similar situation on the eastern gate as well. well,
8:04 pm
more than 80000 people have now been flown out of afghanistan since the taliban takeover sharla bellis has been talking to. afghans was still trying to leave outside couples, international apples. the count on is on as the us and foreign forces. now you have until tuesday to get out. and with that means the end of evacuation like frontier outside the airport there is people rush, see if they can get on fire like we understand you with and the hell of on have a deal that the telephone are only allowed to make people to have a passport and you have paper, what did i was going to going to? i'm here without documents because a lot of people that went to the u. s. on evacuation flights were civilians. so i thought if civilians are going and i served in the army, i should be eligible to go to. i got an offer on the far left. everybody's going. so i'm going to my house, they won't leave me alone. my wife says get down there. why you so lazy?
8:05 pm
i leave the house every day. so my wife stopped hastily in a way to control the crowd and tried to figure this out. they've been looking for people, paperwork at different locations around and then putting them on the sauces that these people are actually about to be on the slide. and they have prioritize to get through. and in the meantime, they are trying to control the crowds and keep people back from wanting to the phosphorus can come through. doing that by shooting guns in the air, by using water cannons and vibrating people to push them back to the close of the gate. 3 times, but because of gunshots and shouting, it makes everyone scared. since i'm a woman, i don't have the courage to push past them. i'll do my best to get out. even if i get shot, i will continue trying to get inside the airport. now the tele bomb se, but anybody who wants to get through and wants to leave and has the paperwork that would allow them on the flight can do so. but they also tell us they hurt people.
8:06 pm
they say that these people, many of them who are highly skilled, would be an asset to the country going forward and that they hope that they say. but in the meantime, with only 6 days left of the slide at the end, we know that the numbers, the number of flights will decrease and the day is going for that the countries on and a lot of these people are trying to get through it into the airport today and that's now speech rosalyn, jordan, she's in washington dc. with all the latest from the rose, the pentagon saying what 10000 people are still left to evacuate. all the confidence that these are left are actually still on trial. well, they say that they believe that these evacuations are still on track, that they can get this work done by august 31st. but there is growing concern because the pentagon says it does need to draw down its remaining equipment at the airport in cobble as well as remove the remaining us troops who were deployed to
8:07 pm
help with this evacuation. and so that's raising some question about whether those who want or need to lead the country will be able to do so. the pentagon spokes person is john kirby. but we will continue to evacuate. needed populations all the way to the end. if, if, if we have to and we need to, if, if you're in a vacuum that we can get out, we're going to continue to get, get you out. so in those last couple of days, we will begin to prioritize military capabilities and military resources to, to move out. that doesn't mean that, that if, if you're in a vacuum in and, and you need to get out that we're just, the more not going to try to get out. but that we will have to reserve some capacity in those last couple of days to prioritize the military footprint leaving . now there's also this fact on tuesday,
8:08 pm
the us president joe biden said that he had ordered the pentagon and the state department to give him contingency plans. if they get to a girl, get close to august 31st and don't see that the work of evacuating people from afghanistan has in fact been completed. now, while no one will say that they're actually going to push past august 30. first, the implication is there, that if they don't help everyone out of country who should have been able to get on a flight, it seems as if there is now the possibility that that date could push. of course, what's the big factor in this? the taller bond says that the u. s. government made an agreement with it to remove all troops by august 31st and that it expects the united states to keep to its word . president jordan there with all relations from washington, d. c. thanks so much. meanwhile, hundreds of afghanistan's of africans, i'm sorry, i trying to enter pakistan at the talking border crossing,

8:10 pm
john and we have been waiting at this border crossing for one week. and we'll be here until we're allowed to go on the truck to go back and forth, trying to earn a living in this area. for humanitarian reasons, the soldiers have not been stopping them, but they've been carrying cigarettes and other things that they've been trying to smuggle across the border and make a quick buck. people have been seeing the desperate, not just to cross into focus on for safety, but because they have tribal ties on either side of the line which divides the 2 countries. and they want to visit their families. they want to go and meet people who are sick and who passed away, but so far, if they don't have the right documentation, they're not going to be allowed inside bucket. moving on and palestinians and garza have been again protesting at the border with israel and follows the killing of a 32 year old palestinian manned by israeli forces on the weekend. one israeli police officer was also injured from us, and other groups and gaza are trying to renew pressure on israel to break it. siege on the region. human side has the laser source from things where actually very
