to the political and economic pool out, i'll just bring you the latest on depend amick. this'll have vaccinated more than 1100 people here, all of the migrant farm workers, people on home testing because they think that there is the risk to democracy, special coverage, and i'll just sarah, me the this is al jazeera ah hello from hi, i'm hello, he is in with the al jazeera news are coming up for you in the next 60 minutes. evacuations are over gamma son, and so their final stage on their height and security, the u. s. as long as they don't strike against eiffel in retaliation for thursday's airport attack, hoping to ease tensions in the middle east, iraq,

the regional summits, the saudi arabia live on high on the agenda, or it can either barrels towards the united states. it's expected to strengthen the dangerous storm and the fights for equal voltage, right. march is a fund across the united states against new laws that make it harder for some people because their ballot. and i'm trying to, how much was the christiano novel return says form a club, but man, just so united the english side, have we deal with you benches to resign the portuguese? ah, well last minute, evacuations. i some of us can the stuff being made more difficult by security threats that faster of bomb explosion that compet airport kills at least 100 and

see 5 people on thursday, including 13 american service personnel. will the u. s. is warranted. citizens not to travel to the airports, depends, can says there are still specific and credible threats. the u. k says it's lost their list form cobble will be on saturday for pooling areas, it's troops that means hundreds of eligible afghans who could fly to the u. k. will be less behinds. and overnights the us is carried ice drones strike against ice ok in eastern afghanistan? are there of course president barton high advice to hunter in those behind the airport bombing? well, we have several reports as monitoring developments in afghanistan from fin job. it is the afghan pakistan border we're refugees are crossing that. the barber is in london for us. we're officials of been talking about final evacuation flights. reynolds is in washington dc. we're going to be speaking to him in just a moment about the u. s. strong strike the 1st though. let's head straight to carbo,

where we can join rob mcbride's role. just give us a sense of where we are. they are, when it comes to security are right in the airport and those last ditch evacuations . i think the put you do get a real feeling that we are now finally into the end game of what has been a very long golf and chaotic and traumatic process evacuating. all of these people. one of the sure, a signs of that has been this process that began friday evening here of the us military contingent that gradually shrinking it's defensive perimeter. at the airport, we had seen them give up god post in agreement with the taliban, and then taliban gods effect to be taking over those posts on some of the outer perimeter walls and also on the inside of the airport. we've also seen in the, on the north gate of the airport that was the gate that has been protected by

allies of the u. s. this is a former special forces afghan unit which is guaranteed seats on some of the last flights leaving the airport. they to giving up the protection of the north gate to taliban fighters. so that's what we see there is as they prepare for the final withdraw, that still hasn't stopped. many people desperate to get out from going up to the airport. that is, in spite of all of the warnings and in spite of the devastating attacks on thursday nights, still pete, people going up that i think many people have accepted the fact that this is drawing to a close. they're not going to get on a flight, but for those people who do want to get on the flight, it does add that sense of urgency. in desperation that the time is running out. and we know that from the numbers of flights coming again, the transport at craft and going out that we are in the final stages of the, of this evacuation process over the sort of tension away from the airport. for now,

what are things like elsewhere in cobble where you are? it does remain a very mixed picture and this is them. coming up to what 2 weeks now since the, since the afghan government collapsed in such a dramatic fashion, the taliban took over control. and really it remains a very mixed picture. you know, you get doom laden predictions that the place is going to fall apart. that said the taliban is not going to be able to hold this country together. on the other hand, you get other people looking at the situation and saying, well look, it remains fairly peaceful. there is a certain amount of stability now reintroduced where it wasn't before that something to build upon. maybe the taliban government as it what it comes in will be able to build on this and to create the stable situation. and when you actually look at the situation on the ground, you find evidence of both of those way forward. this is the 1st day back after the

after what is for many people here, the afghan weekend. it's the 1st day back at work. and so as we saw last week of businesses of reopened, largely betty government departments of reopened ministries, but other ministries have remained close schools, universities remain closed. and what's important, but many people here is the banks, once again closed out, this has been an ongoing problem here in afghanistan, just the banking system. people trying to get their salary trying to get access to their funding. they did re put briefly on wednesday, but were very strict withdraw limits that people could withdraw. people were hoping that today, fact today they're going to reopen. they didn't so that for many people here is a very almost us sign looking forward. ok, rob mcbride, their brilliance, the very latest from kabul this evening. thank you very much. a role, but we can take, you know, to washington dc and speak with alex is there is a role brand know role president biden had threatened retaliation for about

airports attack in kabul. and now we have seen that drawn strike. how is that going die and wave people back in the united states, where of course, at least 13 service men have lost their lives and that's in that bomb attack. well, the news of the bomb at the drone attack rather was, was seen as part of president biden's vow to avenge the deaths of all those afghan civilians and the u. s. service people, it is not known whether this is going to be the end of that process of retaliation . but we do know from the u. s. military that a single strike by an unmanned drone, killed what was described as an eyesore k planner involved in the attack on the airport. in the pentagon was vague about where this

drone originated from. seems very unlikely that it would have come from us bases in the gulf states which are bit far for a drone. so raises the possibility that there, there may have been the origin of this, in pakistan, or perhaps from ships off shore flying over pakistani territory. but in any event, the u. s. military says this took place in non ga har province, which is on the border with pakistan and says that there were no civilian casualties. this comes as the u. s embassy, as warning americans in cobble, those who are remaining to stay away from the airport and to get out of the country as quickly as possible. which does seem to be a bit of a contradiction. but as rob mcbride reported to us just a few moments ago, there are still very large crowds at the cobble airport. there are continuing and

ongoing credible threats, according to us military and diplomatic officials of more attacks on that area. by isolate k and the afghans who are crowded in that area along the the gates are at some risk therefore. so this is in the winding down days, the final days of the military evacuation effort. so far since the fall of cobbled to the taliban, the united states as evacuated, more than 109000 people, an unknown number of americans still remained behind. but the operation is in its final days. okay. rob ronald fair lie from washington, d. c. thank you. by let's take, you know, to london, we can speak with our correspondence deem. bob g, u k, of course, has also had

a significant presence in afghanistan and there, and confirming that the u. k. evacuations will end this saturday. that's right. they said earlier on via the head of the armed forces. the civilian evacuations were ending on saturday. but now we've got it confirmed from the ministry of defense. the last flights purely for afghan civilians to be evacuated out of cobble and to the u. k. have actually taken off their maybe for the flights in the day, which do have a few afghan civilians together with british diplomatic stuff and british military personnel. so really this is confirmation that some things have moved to a new phase. there is a video that's been put out by the u. k. buster in kabul. laurie bridgestone, who said that it's the end of one phase of operations. he says,

we haven't forgotten the people who still need to leave will continue to do everything we can to help them. nor have we forgotten the brave and decent people of dentist on they deserve to live in peace and security. think this is the message that the government would be wanting to put out, and they have done over the last 24 hours that they are continuing to both assist people beyond next tuesday who want to leave the country, but also to assist efforts in neighboring countries. to welcome refugees, people fleeing in fear for their lives into places like iran and pakistan on the british. sure or government. save it nearly 15000 people have been evacuated to the u. k. since mid august. but they're in the words of nick carter. the head of the armed forces they, they've done the a good job in the circumstances. well, there are some criticisms that more than a 1000 people who worked for the british on services are being left behind and

questions about exactly how much assistance can be provided to them right now. ok, nadine bob but that lie from london. thank you. in a dream, well as the evacuation signs and attention is not turning to can sense lands, borges, of some of the java, it is the pakistan, the scan boards are. what's it like they're sama because the have been predictions of many people turning to the landlord is particularly with pakistan to get out of the country. what have you been seeing about to receive

okay, we're going to have where i'm free. we're going to have to draw part of that. unfortunately, we are having problems with some as mike, as soon as we get that sausage will, of course, bring you the view from the lines border and other important aspects of the dynamics going on around afghanistan. but for now, let's focus on the impact solve this withdrawal, not just of the, the allied forces, but particularly own the us, we can speak nights ago and call. he's a former deputy national intelligence officer for transnational threats at the cia i jones just not by skype from boston. it's great to have you with us on the news you do and intelligence. and of course, the, this has been an important aspects of the consequences of the withdrawal and what this will mean in your view, what do you think this withdrawal will mean for intelligence gathering, going forwards? well, there are multiple kinds of intelligence that are used to form

assessments. it's called all source, all source intelligence collection. so you will have satellites, it will have a radio transmission intercept. you'll have traffic analysis, literally studying the movement of vehicles and people. and then what we all think have human sources. the advantage that human sources have is that they are humans are best at providing plans and intentions of your target, the, the group or individual you're seeking to understand and learn about. and that will be hard to obtain. no access to ganeth stand will be much, much, much more difficult. so if you can't get access, then you can't cultivate sources or interpret people's actions. but we can still be done. it just adds a probably an order of magnitude difficulty from outside of the country,

but it will continue and i'm sure it will continue, and it will have to continue as we've been hearing from president biden and for many others. they are very keen that there is a security is assured, and they don't want to see these on groups effectuated campaigns for math canister moving forwards. do you think the intelligence services have a plan b, return to the fact that it will be much more, much harder to get the sort of intelligence that you're talking about now withdrawn? well, as the prospects for the american departure increased in likelihood before by president biden's decision, i'm sure that my successors have done contingency planning. one would obviously consider, well, if we have no access to couples,

how do we obtain information there? so perhaps we can do this that or everything. so yes, there will have been thought about and probably energy devoted to coming up with what you call the plenty. sure. i q and efficient. the think intelligence gathered from, from, from partners in the region would be compared to being on the ground. and do you think there is likely to be an impact on the, in the quality of the intelligence that will be forthcoming after this? or do you think that this is something that will be mitigated? well, i think both both statements are true and there, there will definitely be an impact is always better to have direct access. if i could meet with you, the odds are much better that i could understand what you're doing. then if i have to rely on the reports of somebody else who met with you and then told me about it . so that's that, that does definitely make it harder working with what we call liaison foreign

partners for other intelligent services or governments is very important that can be very, very helpful. but every nation pursues its own interests as it should. and so you will never really received exactly the perspective that you see and that makes it harder. so you have to try to weigh measure relative eyes. what you hear from other countries who are the partners then the us will be, will be working with. we were speaking to the star layer, he suggested us would be much more reliance on pocky sun. what do you make of that? so now i can, i mean our is america eventually going to be working with the taliban when it comes to, to sharing security? what sort of partners is america going to be working with? well, i think all of the above, every possibility that you just touched upon will be pursued. telephone service will, is like water and absence. it will go wherever it can flow or each to,

to find information will be working more closely with to rely on the pakistani so that i would not say there has been a troubled the relationship between united states and pakistan for decades. and i, i anticipate that the relations will deteriorate. this is what's happening. gaston is a triumph for the facts, any intelligence service. and, you know, the failure of our american and western hopes. so, yes, the us and u. k. and everybody else will, as they are able work with the pakistan. but i don't expect that pakistan is will provide anything except what they think will help them, which is not the same as what we want. you know. ok, that's fascinating. stuff will be interesting to see how this plays. i go and call grade to fit ca. thank you so much for sharing your insights with us here at al

jazeera anytime. fancy, morris. so head on this, these are including fed up with way thing. we can refuse in india through the grunted asylum. and we hear from the oldest and largest and genus rebels from why it says that no longer recognizes the government . but for the sport for you in the us open says up a last minute, change all the details for you coming up later in the news. our ah, iraq is hoofing regional summer teams are promoting peace and reconciliation in the mid least. it's also hoping for improve ties to see inside the ravia and iran, as are also meeting fit to this participation is regarded by the iraqi people

as a message of support and solidarity by the brothers neighbors and partners. this conference has held during critical and historic circumstances reflecting an aid from a mentor for iraq's endeavors to strengthen its foreign relations on the basis of cooperation, solidarity mutual understanding, internal relations and common interests. alma without the heads up that conference for event baghdad would just talk us through what's been happening so far will hello. as you heard earlier, the leaders of the stakeholders spoke up the call to be the prime minister of the iraqi government. and all of them have stressed on the fact that iraq should not 10 loan facing get these multiple security and also political and economic challenges. iraq, on the other hand,

looks at this summit with great hope, as official spoke earlier. they say that by holding this summit, they are trying or iraq is trying to regain its positive effect. it's positive rule in the region also by holding this at summit, it's trying to show to the water that it's taking a neutral s tans. and that he got to the ongoing complex and that region leaders also affirming on the fact that the rise of ice and especially the per cell recently that have been recently raising up in center in several areas in iraq, that they show support with iraq. and we got to fighting ice and we got to fighting get through the, the president of france, him enrolled him across, also said that we helped iraq lighting or the feeding ice and then we'll continue

that there now. but it is now in a closed door session and it is expected that they will pine a number of agreements in regard to economic integrations. and also trade deals that, that also entails energy, electricity infrastructure. as you know that iraq needs a lot of projects and development projects in regard to infrastructure in the regards to electricity, energy and also power of power plants. ok mama will have their life 1st in baghdad. thank you my moods, let us get some analysis now from our one sharra sel. 0. see a political analyst. see join us by skype from paris as a marble mover hearing era. but some of the aims and achievements of this thought. certainly some significant players in attendance the summit in baghdad. do you

think this is likely to work with the success look like for this summer to impact us? well, for the time being, just judging from what we've seen in the open and the open session, you can say that the tone of the speeches was rather constructive for the most part, with the exception of couple of exceptions from the dorks and the iranians. but generally speaking, it was very, very supportive of iraq. and the idea that the secure to rock is part and parcel of the security of the why the region in terms of present representation. it was mixed . there were a few extra staged like the injection by property that you're damian, but they were also some on the for a medicine level. some would hope that the iranians in this i would use, for example, would come on the leadership level. but that did not happen. and then there's the timing of it. of course, the timing is very important because it comes that it may have enough data to stand,

but it also comes a few weeks before the early elections in iraq. so somebody important thing for the rocky prime minister to have such a show of force diplomatic force that is from various leaders in the region as well as the french president. so in that sense and 40 iraq and for the iraqi prime minister, it is good. so far, so good, so far, so gates, one of the, one of the interesting things is also perhaps the, the opening speak choose from the say the foreign minister and the iranian foreign minister went back to back, which enabled us to get a better compare and contrast the different approaches does this give these speeches give an indication of a high we expect relations in this region since it's a play because both are very keen to emphasize that they want foreign influence over iraq and iraqi sovereignty to to be left alone. ok. let's try a new one,

start a bit more if we can warm the radians into so we have already been conducting some sort of a dialogue in back that so that's already been a plus for and for iraq of being a place of dialogue between regional nemesis like so the be on your, on instead of being simply the battle field of intervention and for once that it has not been eject constructive to. i think iran, of course has had over the past 17 years, an oversized influence over iraq security. and is that that, or is the, this would be, you know, the, that the destruction within the country allowed iran to take advantage of the american failure in iraq, in order to expand its influence within the country. so now to see one iranian foreign minister visit the 9 other, but none out of breeders that's of course,

is a major imbalance. and as far as the iran is concerned, of course, if you followed some of the some of the commentary from iran in previous months, you would hear that many of the areas consider a prime minister might get to be data one of the united states. and that's whole sort of them, but of course that the prime minister and iraq afford the cause. she is supposed to be shy. so presumably, should have been allied with iran, but this is very particular prime minister who comes from the background of intelligence and who was part and parcel of leading the war against dies along with the united states. and others course made a place for himself in iraq, and he wrote that very important october, our pricing of 2019 that lifted affiliate one government that robbed maddie maddie and allows me to step in. so on an order, i think cousin, if he was it is in his best interest to neutralize the hostility between saudi.

ready arabia and you on and bring more and more parties to the game that will play constructively, then how one of the people and i was asian between them and others playing out in iraq. okay mon, bashar analyzing the situation far as from paris. sullivan thank has been called a life altering storm. how can ida is making its way to the u. s. and gathering strength of heads towards the gulf coast, it's already hit. cuba brought down trees and tor, of roofs, as it crosses the west of the island on file. a. u. s. national weather service predicts it will become an extremely dangerous category for hurricane. by the time it reaches louisiana late on sunday, let's get more and i form, or whether presenter jeff harrington. jeff cas agree for storm that sounds particularly grim does not. anyway, you look at it, this is going to be

a catastrophic storm. so here's, we're hurricane out. it is right now, just barreled through western cuba leaves behind the risk of mud sides when you consider some places got a 10200 millimeters of rain. so here's where i didn't go and right now, worst case scenario through the gulf of mexico. we'll talk more about that in effect. but 1st, the landfall at this point, it's projected to be south west of new orleans. want to bring you the worst case scenario here. this could be a category for hurricane late sunday. and so top wind speeds here up to about $250.00 millimeters of rain. then we got to talk about the storm search, the ocean being brought up and just shoved into the shoreline here. could see that storm search for 5 meters. and let's remember that new orleans is actually below sea level, about 6 meters. add in all of that to about more than half a meter of rain. this is going to be bad. you need to prepare for it. now, the vacuum patient state of emergencies already issued. so here's why it's intensifying these warm gulf of mexico waters. and as we see toward the northern

gulf, the temperature is about $32.00 degrees. so i'd, it's going to pass rate through there. and that's going to allow for the rabbit intensification. i to this storm add fuel to the fire. and all of this is happening about the 16th anniversary of katrina, which also went through the gulf of mexico, became a category 5 hurricane. but when it made landfall over, we use the ana. it was a category 3. also keeping tabs on what is now hurricane north, spilling a lot of rain toward the pacific coast of mexico. and this is going to move up through the gulf of california, going to steer through there. so we're going to watch to see if this does have an impact on the popular tourist hotspot of cobbler san lucas. so to hurricanes, but all eyes on ida and they are, we will keep a close eye on that. but if and i just thank you very much in deeds more weather with j. n. a moment still to come all the use are one of the presidents of origin seen as being invited after doing a birthday party for the 1st ladies. they've been protected for years,

but no romanian government is considering a return to hunting bears. i'm told having you have stock holes in maryland. the 2 coming up later in the news. news, ah, phone era, online be part of the debate or pacific people. the ocean is our identity and the source of well being. we are the when no help take it off the table. it says shoot inside atmosphere. people are demoralized. they're exhausted and many health care workers are experiencing p t f. d like symptom. jump into this dream and julian global community. if you're on right on youtube right now, you can be part of this conversation as well. this stream announces era.
