taking my father away from me and exposes the influence, the former a part i just stablished, still wielded in the new south africa. my father died for this of people empower investigation on al jazeera. the news tensions. hi, and i saw rocket attack targets, combo lab, or the head of the deadline to all of us forces from us gamma stand. diplomacy take center stage plan being worked on to address the looming, humanitarian crisis unfolding enough count. ah, i'm sam is a than this is al serra live from del, also coming up stock message to europe, the w h. o ones, as many as 200000 people could die from cove at 19 by the end of the year. the

global nuclear watchdog raises the alarm believing north korea has restarted operations that it's main nuclear plant. ah. now as us evacuations approach, the final hours it winds down its 20 year mission enough can stand the pentagon announcing that 122000 people have been flown out in the biggest air left in us history as the last few flights take off from cobbled several rockets were 5 towards the airport early on monday, i saw affiliates in afghanistan says, is responsible at approximately 11 pm eastern time last night. as many as 5 rockets were fired at the cool airport. u. s. military forces

successfully employed our force protection measures to thwart that attack. us forces retain the inherent right of self. busy defense and are authorized to meet threats with a swift and forceful response. us troops are among the last international forces to leave. and while huge numbers of afghans have been flown out, many who want to leave a stranded face and a looming humanitarian crisis, set off a flurry of diplomatic move un secretary of state. and the blinking will hold a virtual meeting with several airlines including cutter and turkey. meanwhile, from the u. k, will urge the un security council to protect civilians and ensure a safe passage for those who want to escape. we have to correspondence covering all the developments on afghanistan for the latest on the ground in cobble. we have rob mcbride, he's standing by there, but 1st let's take you to patty calhoun is attended that pentagon briefing and patsy. we got the final hours of evacuation and rocket attacks for us official

saying about the well, i can tell you that they are saying this is always been a dangerous evacuation. but this moment right now is particularly dangerous. they're not giving any details about the how exactly they're going to get the last troops out. what they're going to do with the equipment. are they going to blow it up on their way out there being very tight lips because they believe there is still the possibility of an imminent attack. so we do now is you just mentioned that there were 5 rockets that were fired at the airport. one of those was basically shut down the other 11 landed on the field, but didn't explode. and they said 3 others landed outside of the airfield. so they say they have a plan in place to get everyone out. and they say they are still doing evacuations . but it is clear, the time is running out. we don't know how many troops are still on the ground. we don't know how that last plan is going to take off safely. but they are very clearly right now in the process of winding down. one thing that could be pretty

important and we were talking about a day away for the deadline that they say they will make that they won't tell us which deadline is it is a terrible time, or is it washington time? so they're being really tight. let because i can tell you things have been pretty tense and the guys the last couple of weeks. not quite like this though. this is a very, very tense time for the us military. just trying to get everyone safely out. as you know, they've already lost 13 us marines in that suicide explosion. fire they want to thank you and take this. now it's a couple roman drive. it's live for us that. so what does the off them off from the ground look like off to those attacks today? rob yeah, i think it had more of a psychological impact on the u. s. contingent still at the foot rather than doing any actual ha, it has been claimed by the islamic state affiliates here in afghanistan. they say total of 6 rockets were 5. it's a presume that they were fired from an actual vehicle that was seen to be burning off the woods. and as we heard from the pentagon that they said that they

successfully deployed, that this anti bucket system there. only one of these rockets fell anywhere near the airport and fell harmlessly. but so they have warned about the specifics right here from actual rockets. they are prepared for other threats. it is a very vulnerable time in the last few hours of this evacuation. but that does continue, we know that only the military are now being evacuated, that all civilian evacuations have now come to a halt. we still keep on seeing through monday afternoon, and i went to the evening, the departing transport planes from the airport while overhead. we still have these america war planes flying patrols. now interestingly, this monday, as they have done on previous days when they want to make a point to get a message across, they tend to fly a low, a circuit around cobbled lois, so they planes sound much noisy and also so you can see them. so it is sending a message not only as a morale boost troops on the ground as they conduct what has been

a very chaotic and at times very traumatic mission, but also sending a message to his lot. make stake that same look ok in a couple of hours we won't have any more american boots on the ground. but let's just remember the incredible fire power that the americans possess in the that they can still use that anytime. and we've heard rob, but an aid plan is made to mazata sharif. does this mean regular a flight can now resume and does it mean other airports or operational it is a pretty significant development. first of all, in practical terms for the world health organization that organize this flight because they said they were running low on supplies. so they've had a delivery of supplies. they said at one point that would shut down to just 10 days worth of supplies amidst. what is i a worsening humanitarian crisis. but mazar e sharif is a big city and that all that has a very big, important port which before the collapse of the government had international

flights. so 2 weeks on after the collapse, it has got its air traffic control up and running, receiving an international flight, which then does beg the question. could other airports do that? and in particular hearing, cobble in that, it's a slightly different proposition hearing cobble. but once the us leave, they take with them the traffic control capability and the child just tried to restore that, restore that quickly. it's not known. for example, how many air traffic controller of afghans are still here, or how many may have deposited in the chaotic days 2 weeks ago on some of those early evacuation flights. it's understood countries like turkey offering to restore traffic control and security at the airport. so it does sort of point the way to how the civilian traffic may be restored, and that will be obvious. they have significance to the taliban. the government wants to have a working at port for a organization that gives them a reassurance that they can restart. some of their 8 programs which have remained

suspended, but of course for millions of ass guns looking to the possibility of one day restoring commercial flights. one small on that was rob mcbryan from campbell. kristen salumi is that the united nations with the latest updates from there and kristen, are we seeing now that the united kingdom and france have been pushing a resolution that we expect some action on later in the day that essentially calls for the continued safe passage of civilians and agencies in and out of cobble worth noting that the taliban has said that civilians will be able to come and go as they please. this essentially puts it in writing let's the taliban know that the international community plans to hold them to that commitment by enshrining it in international law. the resolution also,

i think attempts to put the focus back on the humanitarian situation in the country with so much attention on people trying to leave afghan san un officials have been warning that the situation on the ground is increasingly dire. there was concern about medical supplies running out earlier today. w h show the world health organization got its 1st flight into the country since the taliban and take over bringing much needed. medical supplies and health related supplies into the country, some 12 and a half metric tons that are expected to be delivered to 29 different provinces and health centers. but that flight had to land in missouri is sharif. it could not land in cobble because of the terrible security situation there. so you and officials are warning that there are some 3 and a half 1000000 displays. people inside afghanistan about a half a 1000000 of those happening in the last year. and there warning that the situation

on the ground is just going to get worse. so had an al jazeera, the, or can either back in the us state of louisiana. we'll have the latest in new orleans where millions where more than many another without power. a ram meeting between companies and palestinian leaders hours after these re prime minister returns from us. ah, it's another beautiful sunny day of 35000 feet. the weather sponsored by cattle airways booted world's best airline of 2021. hello there. let's start in south asia and for india, which seems to be flooding across as some states in the northeast. that's thanks to heavy monsoon rains. we've had more than 250000 people effected by the flooding,

since the beginning was the $50000.00 up and have to be the lead within the and they have huge increasing growing. we want to be able to stay on the ground to reach people and to ensure that they are not had not and keep attention on the needs of the people and a commitment to continue supporting the organization. like the other partner. what on the ground to be able to dance at such a great a the world health organization is warning another 236000 people could die from code 19 in europe. this year, the di projection follows an 11 percent increase in death across the region. this past week. infection rates have been rising across the u. w. h o blown plains, the highly infectious delta variant easing of restrictions and summer travel. it

a whole range of reasons that if there's an issue of production, an issue with axis issue of uptake. so if we have to do is definitely booth equal row out of the vaccinations and work very hard with the community to decrease the hesitancy. and if need be, as a number of countries have been doing, considering mother nations in some professions and population groups reach are most exposed. i think by all means we have to avoid look down and it shouldn't be necessary. maybe some local look down. but we know what has to be done, vaccines and remarks is very important. then we have seen a number of concrete too soon to funding over when it was just a ritual offering. so even in austin, i really need to keep on divided by mux based on

ventilation and very important in september know is to deep discourse open a current virus lockdown is being extended in new zealand. biggest city, oakland. so 2 more weeks. but restrictions are being eased for the rest of the country. one woman with a pre existing medical conditions died after receiving the 5. the vaccine health ministry says she suffered a ras side effect, but causes inflammation of the heart. and health officials in the australian state of new south wales worn october is set to be the worst month of its coven 19 outbreak. it's premier says extra precautions of being taken october is likely to be our worst month in terms of pressure on the system. and that's why we're gearing up for that. we have been for nearly 2 years. can i say again a hospital system is under pressure will need to do things differently. of course

we will, where we need to manage things differently. we're in the middle of a pandemic, of course, but will we cope? of course we will. people on the us golf coast, waking up the damaged homes, flooded streets and no electricity. but after hearken, either made land for new near new orleans as a category for storm late on sunday, either has since been downgraded to a tropical storm for cost. as a warning, though, the danger isn't over and be seized. jay gray has more from new orleans. well, the damage here is severe and it is very widespread. we've got sunrise here, we've got some sun so we can see what's happened. i want to show you some of the damage just behind us. here you see a roof that was pulled away from a building thrown into this area of the french quarter and pulling down with it a street sign that had a traffic light attached to it. if you work up that twisted metal that was holding

that sign up, you can see the balcony here in the wind, pulled away the shutters and pushed open doors not only year, but across the entire 1st quarter across the entire new orleans metro area. windows have been shattered and bone out. if you look up on the balconies here and you can see people along the balconies and some of these areas where the windows have been blown out. it is a just a mess down here. and again, really across the entire region at this point, power one of the most severe problems. there is no power in the metro area of new orleans at this point, more than a 1000000 people without power. and that's because the transmission lines 8 of those lines that bring the electricity into the city there on the mississippi river . right now, they've got to be extracted, they've got to be repaired. that's going to be a very difficult task. one that is sure to take quite some time for the 1st time in a decade, palestinians and israelis have held high level talks. palestinian president by

murder bass, spoke to israel. defense minister ben against the wall than 2 hours in ramallah. gan says they discussed security and the economy of the occupied west bank and gaza . the meeting follows israeli prime minister enough, tommy bennett's visit to the us where he met president joe by then. natasha, her name is in west jerusalem. prime minister natalie bennett is already down playing the meeting. he's saying there was no quote diplomatic process with the palestinians, nor will there be one home asked. the group that governs the gaza strip, is condemning the meeting saying that is or characterizing it as a political failure. we've reached out to the palestinian authority or the p. a for comment. we have yet to hear back from them. it's this meeting is happening as there are nightly protesting clashes between palestinians in the gaza strip and israeli soldiers. since last week, 2 palestinians have been killed and israeli soldier shot in the head. anger is

simmering over the fact that israel has been slow to allow desperately needed aid and reconstruction materials into the gaza strip. so while there might be a pivot in terms of engagement, been a decade since my mood above the president of the palestinian authority has met with such a high level member of the israeli government. do not expect a pivot in terms of policy. rather, it's in keeping with what this new government in power since june has said it would do. the united nations middle east envoy says he hopes the meeting leads to more dialogue. this was the highest level meeting between the 2 sites, seats to formation of deter the israeli government. i welcome this. and i encourage more mystery level engagement, particularly in advance for financial and corporate. i hope that contact can result

a relies on satellite images using these it says is detected a discharge of cooling water at the main nuclear plants and young beyond. and that suggests the reactor is operating. if the latest findings are correct, the you and nuclear watchdog says it's a deeply troubling development and it's believe young beyond react to produce plutonium for north korean nuclear arsenal. in the past, the white house says the a report underscores the urgent need for dialogue and diplomacy. whatever warmer relations that appear to be cultivated under former president donald trump seemed to have grown cold under his successor joe biden. as u. s. military exercises were held with the south. unfortunately, the biden administration has been slow off the mark on the north korea file. of course, they were dealing with the renewal of the strategic reduction pd with russia, which happened in february. the resumption of talks with iran on the comprehensive plan of action by thing with it. and also there were draws from of,

not just on. so these are a number of important programs. but unfortunately, it seems that the united states traditional position has not changed the all demand for complete irreversible verifiable disarmament of north korea's nuclear program has never worked at is not likely to work. the subject of consternation and negotiation for decades young beyond as the heart of north korea's nuclear program, is cooling tower was famously destroyed in 2008 as part of an international drive to dismantle parts of the program. in exchange for relief from sanctions, the following year in north korea kicked monitors out. nearly a decade later, kim jung own offered to dismantle young john in return for the same concessions. the trump administration rejected the offer that would have left cam with other reactors in secret sites. not to mention possible nuclear weapons, a weapons or would give north korea leverage right them if they've got, you know, 30 instead of 20 or a 100 instead of, you know, 50 or whatever. we don't know how many they have been this,

give them more bargaining chips when events where you go station take place by apparently allowing the world to see this new activity at young. beyond the north korean leader may be signaling he's ready to talk and are chappelle al jazeera. if he appears prime minister abbey, i met his meeting regional leaders as international pressure builds to end the conflict in the northern te gray region. his latest trip took him to wonder where he met president polka gama. earlier he met the leader of uganda president, you are him. survey me. the united nations secretary general turnover tallish is calling on all foreign troops to levy. ok. quoterush urged all parties to push for a last thing, sees fire and t grind. fam b as newly elected president is made sweeping changes. president again de g. lima has appointed new military chiefs and replaced all police commissioners. the president says he hopes to launch a new era in zambia by restoring the rule of law in respect of funded mental

freedom. in china, many teachers and education workers have been banned from tutoring. students for profit to government hopes the bank will ease financial pressure on families and reduce the cost of raising a child. katrina, you reports from beijing wolf street, english once old, private tutoring session to chinese students came to improve through extra steady. ah, now it's one of more than $1000.00 companies, forced to close their doors. following sweeping education regulation tutoring companies can no longer teach compulsory school subjects teach during school hours . not earn a profit. thousands of foreign juices like catherine peterson, has suddenly found themselves redundant. the american has taught english and critical thinking skills in china for 5 years. this is going to impact the industry a lot. and especially now with coven, it's so hard for foreigners to come into the country to. i think it might mean

a huge downsizing of the industry. many parents invested and chooses to help their children boost their results in hyper competitive exams known as cow cow that they need to pass to get into universities. but many say john is tutoring industry that was once worth an estimated $140000000000.00 is now decimated. can you shop lost her job as an administrator in one of china's biggest tutoring companies and is now struggling to find work? sure, yeah, you know, the how does hierarchy got his name? is she just because of the huge demand this industry was blooming, but it put a lot of pressure on parents because extra tutoring is not the chinese government. it's cracked on private shoes or reduce the cost of raising a child, and each pressure on family, china's birth rate is flowing and authorities a desperately trying to encourage couples to have more children. but analysts say

this isn't the only goal. authorities also want to encourage investment in more innovative areas of china's i t industry's to create greater competition with high tech companies in the west. amazon, the mapping, how alina space technology is the company, mars budge knows the i t giants in china, and they are making money of parents and dieties. but some worry that the government may just lead to a black market in private tutoring, just because the government has banned or is trying to cut back on a certain kind of education. i don't mean that was thought parents from trying to pursue it. the government says it's offering support to thousands of people affected by the measures that that may not be enough to help all of those reeling from the shock of seeing that teaching career in china. suddenly at an end, katrina you out a 0 paging of volcano on the italian island of sicily has wrapped it again, sending ash and lava into the air. mount aetna is the largest of italy's 3. active
