12:06 am
and those who lives in danger. so the people are in a very bad situation. o halimon would feel like mer to america to maintain a diplomatic presence in afghanistan. this is according to the us state department in while the white house says the situation on the ground is still dangerous. the threat is ongoing and it is active. it is our troops are still in danger. that continues to be the case every day that they are there most. this is the most dangerous part of the mission. this is the retrograde period of the mission. and what that means is that this is the period of time when the military commanders on the ground and forces begin to move, not just troops home, but also equipment home. and that is often a very dangerous part of any mission. but in this case, they're also doing that well, there is a, an ongoing and acute threat from isis k. so what do we know about the ice fil affiliate? known as islamic state,
12:07 am
horizontal ice. ok. leon group was formed in 2014 by breakaway fighters of the pakistani taliban and fighters from afghan stone who pledged allegiance to the late ice. the leader, i will background by godaddy. what i saw is a historic region which comprised parts of iran, afghanistan, and pakistan. ice okay, has been responsible for some of the worst attacks and i've got some pockets done in recent is killing people in mosques, public squares, and even a maternity ward in the afghan capital combo. they're also advisories of the taliban with different teachings of strict sony beliefs. i feel has been highly critical of any cooperation between the taliban and washington, including deals, withdrawal, foreign troops accusing the taliban of being a pos states. and i'll speak to my chombo. he's a former us counter terrorism advisor and the founder of rise to peace and organization focuses on preventing extremism. he joins us life and washington via skype. and it seems to be quite difficult to establish the
12:08 am
relationship between ice hill and the taliban. whether they are mortal enemies or if there is some level of overlap and coordination between the 2. well, i'll cry it out. a taller bond book of rom shabani the dia, shy escape. i mean, i go in china, you name it all of these extremist groups that operates in different parts of the world. you all share one thing in common and that a, the, you are the slum, the tools to justify their actions. so whether they get along or not, whether the going to make them want us to save and safe haven for terrorism. we're going to plan w tags across the united, across the world. that it's something that the future will. but i think the total bon relationship with the ice that has not been good from the beginning. 2014 nice
12:09 am
can for pakistan on top of on 21096 same birthplace. but the friend strategy different operation. so the techniques is the friend in 2019, i interviewed isis children and cobble and also the toner one. so southern southern isis and $55.00 tall 1. 1 thing i drug extension about them will conclusion i had was that ice has been more disciplined rather than taller on i think ice this are in the, in a, in a phase of regrouping kind of like settlement. that's how every insurgence distorts . if you look at it in the columbia, or if you look at it, you know, are you re or kick again, they not a state. all these are groups with some sort of extreme and to really high to moderate radical talk. the 1st thing to do is to make sure they get settlements to start recruiting, starting, making people believe in them starting, making people that are the best that they're going forward. and this new shop with you right now. some sort of ordering i want to on,
12:10 am
i think the bloodshed has stopped but promising whether the tunnel bonding to work with all other groups, you know, want to start was back from dollars to g sold minority that will determine the face of whether isis can resist or not, i think a strong government and i want to shed on will not and prevent any terrorist attack both interval honest on and i, on the borders. it requires the african leaders and requires a strong couple administration. i just ask. so you're saying that the more inclusive taliban government is the more ethnic religious, various different groups are part of some sort of government and less of the threat they phrase for me. i feel though we know that i still a, has targeted certain groups in the past. so could that also in some ways that the more inclusive talent government is, could that deepen iso opposition to the taliban? in some ways it could. i mean, when i talk about inclusiveness, i mean the taller bond to be able to form
12:11 am
a government that you bring the opposition to resistance forces right on punch here in babylon, province. the leader in pakistan deleted and the political leadership to talk about and talk a far, i think all of them to sit together, compromise in some sort of solutions. well, that a ton of are going to run and giving the cabinet ministers to them. look in 2001 in the conference, all the parties, all different side of the conflict for a bill, but except the telephone. i don't, you know, i've been saying that if we have to talk about that and the cable at the moment, you wouldn't, you wouldn't have not have the 19 years of war. that thing at the time, again, work and i've launched on have been but based on tribalism, it's a lot of different ethnic groups. it's a country smaller than texas, but the people everybody wants to watch. everybody wants to be in power. so i think having that mentality and having a strategy to unite the tribes, you can prevent ice as because one thing that i might just ask you very briefly, just briefly because such a vos country and taliban has admitted that its having problems enforcing
12:12 am
discipline on its own fighters will there be in some provinces or in some remote areas, governors or taliban representatives that might coordinate with i cell k, even if the parts the leadership are opposed to that. yeah, there is a possibility. look, you know, i've launched on and not all the time already, not it. so there are groups that did not want to have the p steering group. they don't want it that whole deal with the united states. so most of the i still foot soldiers or those who have grievance and have lost your jobs or people that did not been listen to cobbled administration because the regime. and at the same time, you're talking about fighters that have john, i says to be a, gives the taller one. so that correct is going to be all. was there an edition device that we see are connie, and it's worth your art. but connie, your groups of them are against the government against the taller on islamic move it. so it was back on, we talked about it, i was talking, but i was in northern, have launched on and we talk my church and fighters. so all these groups will be an
12:13 am
obstacle, even if the taller bond bring in a strong government. but what the tanika will have an advancement is that you will be able to have a strong institutions to come by these terrorist groups and be able to show them stuff in action that you're not against freedom and democracy. but if you are protecting your people for terrorism, thank you very much. i shall have for joining us from washington. thank you for having. of course, there is a mounting humanitarian crisis in the country. the u. n. is wanting half a 1000000 afghans could flee by the end of the year, and it's calling on the countries neighbors to keep that board is open to those seeking safety. these are dramatic times and you and hcr, the u. n. refugee agency has worked with the people of afghanistan for over 40 years, and we will stand by them and do what we can to support them. in terms of numbers, we are preparing for around 500000 new refugees in the region. this is
12:14 am
a worst case scenario, while we have not seen large outflows of atkins at this point, the situation inside afghanistan has evolved more rapidly than anyone expected. meanwhile, the authorities in pakistan's capital, as lombard, have ordered all the hotels not takes up the gas for the next 3 weeks to make space to thousands of people expected from afghanistan. focused on media says the government is also expecting foreign diplomats and journalists to arrive. and security measures outside hotels have been beefed up. huge numbers of afghans have been crossing into pockets down with many saying they've given us waiting to be flown out of the country. african refugees in the french port city of cali, worried about the future of that country under the taliban. many of them are also desperate for news of their loved ones, especially after the force attacks latasha. butler spoke to some of them who want to remain anonymous for their security. this man says he fled kabul nearly a year ago because he feared for his safety. now he's in the northern french port
12:15 am
of kelly and wants to reach britain. he says been for taliban takeover in afghanistan. he stop worrying about his family back home. no. telling me to get us wrong because we are not maybe they can be they will be killed by the ones. so they really worry about distributions. yeah, scared. while thousands of afghans are trying to leave afghanistan, now, those in cali left several months or years ago, most say because of taliban violence, now they survive outdoors in green conditions. i am really scared for my country. i didn't want to leave. you know, i want to leave their home, but now in spanish we have no choice because the situation is really bad. was really, really scary time. it's
12:16 am
a very unfastened time as well for people because they don't know if these are going to make out what's gonna happen, obviously after the deadline as well. so it's really, really scary. we're in time for lots people have few afghans and cali. want to stay in frauds most want to reach the u. k because of the language or family ties each day. some people attempt to cross the english channel by hiding in a laurie on an inflatable boat. the british government says it will take in 20 sales and the african refugees over 5 years, but there's no indication that that would include rows stuck in kelly. sarah, we are all following things to couple day fly people, one of them, because this situation is very difficult. there it is why we left our homes. so why don't they take? i've gone from here, frustration, fatigue and a desperate existence made worse by anxiety about loved ones far away. few here say
12:17 am
they regret their journey's, but most hope that was happening in afghanistan will help people better understand why they left natasha butler jazeera kelly in the news, our life from london. more still ahead on the program, us intelligence agencies released the declassified report into the origins of the corona virus and whether it was developed as a bio weapon and other tests approved in battle. new presidents in congress decides on whether to approve his cabinet and we'll show you the form to one driver who's that the fastest time and practice the been crushed into a world that's coming out with gemma ah, rusher is reported its highest monthly death toll of the corona virus pandemic, 50421 people died from covered 19, all covered related causes in july,
12:18 am
according to the official statistics service. ross time it says there were 365000 covert related deaths between april 2020 and last month. this is double the official death tell published by the russian corona virus task force. meanwhile, covered related deaths in the united states have risen 11 percent in the past week . cdc release the latest visit day off to the number of crime virus patients in hospitals past a 100000, a level last seen in january hospitals in the south of lower than the rest of the country. many states they're going through there was twice infections topping the list, florida, what? 17000 people are currently in hospital supporting more than 200 deaths each day. gallagher has more now from miami. well, the situation here in florida frankly hasn't been worse. over the past few days. we've got north of $200.00 deaths per day. around 23000 new cases reported every
12:19 am
day and 17000 people in this state alone are hospitalized. now all of this, of course, being fueled by that delta variant, and most of the people in hospital, all the unvaccinated things are so bad that doctors are holding press conferences, all mass just to appeal to people to get those vaccines in their arms. now, governor ron defenses has just been over ruled by a judge. he was trying to stop schools from putting mask mandates in place, but a judge said you have exceeded your authority. so in, in terms of parents who want my children to stay safe. that could be seen as a good thing by them. obviously there are people that will not agree with that, but the governor has been over ruled now in many ways, what's happening here in florida is a microcosm of what's happening across the entire country, particularly in states. like alabama, mississippi and louisiana, where those vaccination rates a pretty low, and the cases are ramping up. although i have to say over the past few days and weeks, those vaccination rates have been going up as people realize they have to make
12:20 am
a choice. they may be vaccine hesitant, but the alternative could be far worse. american intelligence agencies, a divided over where the corona virus actually came from, that agree that it was and developed as a buyer weapon. this is according to report ordered by us president joe biden. that's now been declassified. the current of ours is 1st detected in the chinese city of one in 20. 19 intelligence community says china is leaders didn't know about the virus before the pandemic began. they couldn't agree on whether it was 1st transmitted from an animal or leach from a lab bite and has blamed china for obstructing investigations. that's good to get as under washington d. c. so found the conclusion on the bio weapon ferry, but perhaps a bit more vague when it comes to whether it was whether the viruses leaked from a lab. yeah,
12:21 am
that's right. and that's really what everyone was trying to get an answer to that key. fundamental question that has been creeping up or over and over now, was it really the virus started from that wet market in hand? was it past from an animal to a person? was that what it was? or was it a leak from the who had institute of or ology? and that is one of the key question that joe biden wanted answered among other people. and that's why who in may, he ordered the intelligence community, 3 months. he said, i want to report, i want to know where this came from. that's what this report is now. the classified version of this was dropped on jo biden's desk on monday, the declassified summary, which is just over little over one page long. it's not that long. that's the key finding. and they basically are saying out of the 5 different intelligence community agencies that are unnamed in, in the report, they weren't able to reach
12:22 am
a conclusion on that. they said that there were some of the agencies that felt that there was a possibility that it could have been a lab leak. but other intelligence agencies that reviewed all of this said where they were not so sure. so essentially inconclusive key finding is, is they also said that they probably would not ever be able to determine conclusively where it came from the virus. it led to covered 19 and the less, the chinese government cooperated in further investigations or new information came out. and the intelligence community saying that china has not been cooperating at all. so essentially, this could be, at least for now the final chapter of this. and by, by that least, the one and a half page summary intelligence community saying, we simply cannot say for sure. it was either from the web market animal to human possibly or possibly could have been a lab leak,
12:23 am
but they could not reach any sort of consensus on it. thank you very much. gabriel elizondo washington thank will. in years administered nearly 10000000 doses in one day. this is the highest 80 figure since launching its vaccination drive in january of the adult population is now received at least one dose and around 15 percent of fully vaccinated against covered but infections also rising. central government is the status of my roster, and carola to consider imposing night curfews. and he has reported more than 436000 deaths from covert, although a study last month suggested the actual toll is 10 time time. and then he zealand is extending its nationwide locked down until tuesday, after reporting 70 new cases of the virus. most of the infections are in the larger city of oakland which will remain locked down for further 2 weeks. the rest of the country will ease restrictions slightly from tuesday. there are now $347.00 cases
12:24 am
of current of virus and museum and, but only one of them is deemed critical. and then denmark is set to lift all of its corona virus restrictions by september 10th. health ministry says it no longer considered covert a critical threat to society. denmark has the 3rd highest vaccination rates in europe with 71 percent of the entire population fully not collected. after restrictions and lifted people won't have to show proof of vaccination or a negative test to end to restaurants, bars or attend large gatherings. denmark is recording fewer than a 1000 cases a day on average. want to take you back to august on. we cannot speak to father had, who is a journalist there about will be the atmosphere and the impact of those days attack . i mean, already people in the country were dealing with the upheaval and the desperation of the past 10 days. tell me about the, the effect of the airport attacks on you. marianna,
12:25 am
there is a new wave of fear and panic with the people after enjoying a few days of peace. yesterday's attack on the taliban with a death to me. as, as the left people wondering if we're going to ever going to have peace, we're living or not. so of people has a questions that capability of the taliban on handling to terroristic attacks. and also people are questioning on the use government on how they going to handle the rest of the equation of these type of attacks continue to happen. did you, when i know that the situation was already very difficult and unstable, but did you sense a shift from before yesterday's attack to,
12:26 am
to how it's how it is now? absolutely. i mean, do, i mean everybody is talking about the, about. busy this does attacking and the death and anger is if you look at the social media, if you look at the people just talking with the families, it's all about this packet is affected. the people are a completely and people people is back on, on the fare and, and most of the people are evacuating going to the neighboring countries. i have seen a couple of youngest are talking about going to iran are going to pakistan, they know the border. they know that they're not in, those countries are logged in and at the end. but they are trying to make the
12:27 am
effort to go there. now, forgive me if i had, i just wanted to say so you hearing of many more people now is there. after this attack, a rush of people heading to the land borders, then exactly, exactly because of they, you know, the 1st thing is that the taliban, you know, we told that they are going to be prepared with a system of governance with the rules and regulations and resolution to to, to run this nation. so now it's been about 2 weeks and it's not there. and now with these attacks, people are back on the road to just saved their lives because they don't see the taliban can prevent these type of incidents to happen. day now saying that the former government was able to pro, in this type of attack because they had the intelligence services they had. they
12:28 am
had foster approaches, but the taliban don't seem to bother even condemning this attack. they only had the announcements saying that no one from taliban were killed and the or sorry about the life last but no, no for direction. and it doesn't seem like they are really trying to prevent any sort of these attacks if it's happens in the future. okay. thank you very much for had thank you for joining us. thank you all as much most that i had for you on the news hour. will it be the 16th time? lucky for the man convicted of killing senator robert f kennedy parole again, why chinese children as young as 6 will soon be taught reading, writing, and the political ideology and teaching pen and in the cricket,
