mm mm this is al jazeera. ah, hello, i'm has, i'm sick of this is the news out live from dog coming up in the next 60 minutes. the 1st international passenger flight from cobblestone honda bon took control in afghan. it's don arrive in copper, migrants from across latin america, travel in tough conditions to try to reach chile. the british government's plans to

adopt new tactics to try and deal with an influx of illegal migrants. will have an exclusive report from democratic republic of congo, where soldiers have retaken a town from groups in fort fif is proposal to stage a wildcard every 2 years haven't gone down? well, it was the head of european football. this one that teams may fully caught the tournament . if the plans go ahead i the 1st international passenger plane to leave cobble since the end of the us, lead evacuation has just landed in the cost of the capital cost. railways charter flight was carrying dozens of foreign nationals from the hop passengers will continue to their final destination because of the technical team's been working to

make cobble cobble. apple, fully operational again, they say it is 90 percent functional and expect a gradual reopening mohammed jim. jim has more from da hoss how much international airport while we try to set the scene here for you, 1st of all, i'm going to going to step out of the frame here so you can see the line behind me . these are some of those 113 or so passengers that have just arrived from cobble after getting on that 1st commercial flight. earlier today. a short while ago we were speaking to one woman who came off the plane. she is a canadian citizen, she came from cobble. she talked at length about the fact that it had been so difficult for her to get to the airport in the past few days. that it was such a fraud journey for her that there was so much relief when she was finally able to get on that plane with her family. but that even though she was relieved,

she couldn't sleep the entire flight because she was so concerned about what might come next. but she talked about the great difficulties that she and fellow afghans, especially the ones living in cobble right now had been facing all the uncertainty because of what's going on there. and because it was so difficult to insure those evacuations and to get to the airport, let me just step back into the frame here for your house and what we're seeing right now, mostly families. we're seeing a lot of children among these 113 passengers. a lot of mothers, a lot of fathers as well. the people who have come by have seem to be in good spirits. they seem to be quite happy that they are here. as i said, there was a lot of uncertainty about what happens next. we've been told by officials here that this group of passengers are going to be 1st of all process. we are right now in the terminal where passport control is and then custom. so they will go through passport control, show their papers, go through customs,

then we're told they will be taken to a compound here into that is hosting hundreds of afghan refugees and evacuated. of course, that compound was built for visitors next year's world. but it has been used in the interim to house people playing afghanistan. and this really goes to show what happened here today. just how crucial gutter has become when it comes to afghanistan, it is the main interlocutor with the color bon. we've seen a lot of hope, high profile visits from diplomats in the past couple of weeks coming to copper to think officials for their assistance for the most prominent foreign dignitaries to pass through here just 2 days ago. you had us secretary of state, anthony lincoln and the us defense secretary, they met their counterparts, they had a press conference and they were full of praise for the countries. and they said on several occasions that day, that of all the countries that had helped during the evacuations, that no country had helped more than other in helping to facilitate the air lift of

over a 100000 people the largest air listing history. you've had over 58000 people here in the past few weeks. you've transited through copper, and now you have this group. and as i said before about a 113 people were told there are canadians ukrainians, that there are u. s. national that there are british citizens and there are also germans among those that were on this flight. a cut us foreign minister is urging the international community not to play politics with humanitarian aid for afghanistan, he's been meeting is pakistani counterpart in islamabad. humanitarian situation and humanitarian assistance should be independent from any political progress because we believe that the african people deserve to be help deserve to be supported despite what's happening in the political landscape. the 1st

thing that you ought to do is at least release what's there's the assets that upon assets should be the s, it's decreased and it often people utilize their money for their benefit. what their people at that would be a very, very welcome development in the next tao, the un security council will hold an open debate on afghanistan. christian salumi is live from the united nations for so christ. and how is the us role in afghanistan expected to change with the u. s. withdrawal. when it comes to the security council, the primary concern of members state is threats to international peace and security

. and earlier today, the united states hosted an event at the 911 memorial and museum for the council members are not so subtle reminder of just why the united states went into afghanistan in the 1st place because of those attacks. but of course, the challenge is always finding a way to stabilize the country, while all countries are concerned that i'm gonna stay and not become a haven for groups that might launch attacks on other countries. how best to do so is very much open to debate. the united states has frozen funding for afghanistan that belongs to get a chance government is in us banks. russia has been advocating for that money to be, will be. this puts the united states in the western allies in a difficult position of whether or not the taliban should be recognised whether not sanction should be lifted and so on. but the one concern that seems to unite

the counsel is humanitarian concerns. and the one role for the, the un that is clear right now is to help the many people in the country about our need. and you and officials just today released a new report warning that 97 percent of the country could be in poverty conditions in the coming months if the current situation is allowed to continue as if some relief, particularly economic relief is not given or humanitarian issues accounted for so clearly the role of the un on the humanitarian front is going to become ever more important going forward. but how the security council addresses that still remains to be seen. and course then what can we expect them to come out of this meeting? well again, i would expect the focus to be largely on the humanitarian crisis, facing the country and particularly on human rights concerns. that's a big issue for the united nations in many members,

states they're worried particularly about women and girls and religious minorities and their rights moving forward. so what i expect is an attempt to link human rights issues with aid issues and humanitarian issues. and the need to use that as an entree into discussions with the taliban and with whatever government comes to pass in afghanistan, there are speakers expected from afghan civil society to talk about the situation on the ground. and we'll also be hearing from the noble laureate malala use of cy pakistani girl who was shot after advocating for girls education, which the taliban had taken away in her region of pakistan. so expect a big emphasis on rights and how that is connected to the development economically

of afghanistan. and that is expected also to be the starting point for discussions on the un mission and afghan, a stand and how that might need to change. but those discussions are only just beginning behind closed doors for the security council. kristen, thanks for that christmas loony live in the united nation. so plenty more ahead on this news. now pressuring the qu, leaders suspending guinea the west african block echo fence mediators for talks. family members detained as the hon wise's for prisoners who escaped from a high security facility in israel. and in argentina football fans give the chance to watch their team inside a stadium for the 1st time. in 20 months. more on that later in 4 ah, a thousands of migrants from all over latin america undertaking one of the most

difficult journeys to cross into chile. it's economy has rebounded more quickly from the pandemic venice neighbors and many hope to find work them, which is government says they are not welcome or latin america editor only see newman as this report now from culture and in the, at a comma desert every single day and night they cross into truly through one of the most inhospitable environments imaginable. it's well below freezing at nearly 4000 meters above sea level. when we find a new group of 10 meters railings who just entered chaney after 4 days in the desert. why the fishing meeting was the hardest part and after due for water or foot and you don't have any when they when, when we arrived and you know children warmus, others faint or have convulsions because of altitude sickness, like g snail lit up. she's a venezuelan who like many has come from neighboring group. i don't know,

but there was no work anymore. money had become worthless, just like in venezuela, it was a terrible situation. we had to live in, but it's for my children. i had to leave my other child behind him, peru with my mother for they get the book. although chili's border has been closed since march thousands of undocumented migraines and managed to escape border controls, captain can stop the war, offers the intent to spend the night at the local police station. it was, while the majority of the news, railings, ruffians, ecuador, and cubans, and colombians are also arriving by the thousands, preferring to walk through weeks and take their chances in chile, rather than in the united states. how you will middle shows his papers indicating his internally displaced record again from columbia. i just talked with my wife when i saw someone who was trying to forcibly recruit me again. i said we have to

leave. i just wanted to see if it's true that other governments will help us with julian government says it has no intention of letting these and we're going to stay in the last 3 weeks. and $6000.00 to undocumented migraines have been vetted for covered 19 vaccinated and allowed to stay in chile, but only temporarily do more for us in the accident. we are going to continue carrying out explosions. we have 20000 cases ready to be deposited, although we are shaking cares by care. so they have extenuating circumstances. but we might discover irregular migration. some of the new arrivals need for the capital where they have friends or family. those with neither and no money. and up here, whether they know it or not, all of them will face new hardships in the country that says they don't belong here . latin america editor, lucy newman joins us from until august. i, northern chile. so this year how,

how so many undocumented margaret's getting into chilly when the borders remain closed? they're doing it by risking their lives. in fact, what you saw there was, was just one of the illegal and or, or, and what time should i say? what they call here, illegal entrances into chilly hundreds and hundreds of kilometers along the border with libya. and it is freezing. cold track record is very often just leave the people in the middle of the desert and leave them walking for days or weeks. some of them die along the road. those who don't, many of them come to camps like this one in the city of ag k, because they have no way to stay. they run out of money. these are people that are really desperate and there, but these camps like the, when you see behind me is getting bigger and bigger by the day. because the government so far is not giving them any help. but there are,

there is some talk of setting up a temporary refugee center, but the big question is, what will happen to them eventually, once the government decides that they've had enough of them, that they can take them any longer. and whether or not they decide to actually send them back to venezuela and so many other countries where they've come from and see what, why so many peruvians now leaving their country and can chile cope with this influx? well, you know, that isn't, that is a very interesting question and it's a new phenomena that we're seeing. i was very surprised to see that so many peruvians have gone all the way to the country next door to bolivia and come into this country as undocumented migrants. they say that they are fleeing their new government, that the economy has collapse there. others say that they're afraid that it will become another venezuela, some of the migrants also say that the new government has said that it will be expelling people who don't have papers. and so that's why they've come to chile. but prove has was, are this had what was a booming economy,

that economy is now in dire straits and freed up and changed just a short while ago. and so we're seeing, as i say, a lot of people coming here saying that they, that they could no longer keep their businesses open and that they're hoping for a chance here in chile, the c. a thanks so that lucy newman live 1st. there in northern she was brought britain is planning to turn back illegal migrants on boats trying to reach its southern shores. $114000.00 have crossed the english channel this year. that 6000 more than the whole of 2020 migrants get on the boats from france and then try to cross one of the world's busiest shipping lanes. john hall has moved from dover. it's soaring numbers of asylum seekers trying to make it here to britain over the last several years. those numbers climbing recently, particularly this year, 14000 people have made it across the channel at the hands of people smugglers based

in france, arriving here on pretty shows. that's this year that's already 6000 more than in the whole of 2020 deep concern here. of course, in government circles about what may come in the wake of events of us enough can stand perhaps, greater numbers yet trying to reach britain and a lot of pressure on the government. on the home office in particular to try and stem the tide of migrants and refugees making this very dangerous crossing. i mean, marina, now we're in the midst of a rescue situation that has just completed to border for specials have made it into dover. marina, not the 1st 2 of the day, i must tell you, hundreds of people about 300 have already been brought to sure. today i'm going to ask my dependents camera down there. you can see a board or force dingey. they're bringing a number of individuals. 8, i think in blue life best that would have been provided to them by the board of force. those are refugees of 10. i think actually refugees, migrants being brought ashore here to dover,

marina. they would have been intercepted at sea in the middle of the channel, probably in a, an inflatable vessel. it is standard practice that the board of force, once they cross into british waters, will intercept that vessel. they're all pretty vulnerable vessels. take these people onto the board of force boats and bring them safely here to a reception center that's going on. there are 2 other vessels bought for vessels alongside seeker and hearken. and groups of people waited to be brought ashore on both boat. so that gives you a pretty good idea of what is going on here. we're looking at something like 2000 people this week alone, abroad a morocco's prime minister sat dean. mani has resigned from his party leadership after crushing defeat in parliamentary elections. there provisional results show the justice and development party last more than a 100 seeds voters back the liberal and sent to write opposition. parties turn out

is set to been around 50 percent during a time of economic crisis made worse by the corona, virus pandemic, with 9096 percent of the votes counted the opposition and national riley of independence allied to the monarchy as around a quarter of all seats with 97 just behind it is the authenticity and modernity party and other opposition group with 80 to see. and the ruling justice and development party has just 12 seats down for 125 militia yell has more from what about? they have filed several cases in different districts and cities across the country where they said that the supporters of the victim of these inactions were handing out large sums of money for people to vote for the national value of independence. they claimed that some of their candidates were also intimidated even some of their offices and tact. but really, it is by the, by, in the sense that the result of the election was so resounding, of

a defeat for the representative for resigning defeat, for the justice and development party. that really doesn't matter what people are talking about here is, is the shift in the vote. a vote of confidence for i see is the head of the national in dependence. a 1000000000 our business man here or is if in fact a protest vote against the somebody rooted party, the justice and development one. it seemed just more of the latter. they had the bigger share in parliament over the past 10 years and fail to deliver on many of their promises. they had positioned themselves as a, not necessarily a counter voice to the monarchy, but at least something that would provide an alternative to what's americans had been accustomed to for decades prior to that. but in reality, through their governance or the limits of governance. they had,

they ended up pursuing all the similar policies are coming from the palace. ironically, it doesn't seem that the you vectors of these elections will do anything different because they are also seen to be very close to the palace on groups continued to attack people in eastern provinces of democratic republic of congo. despite a state of emergency there, at least 300 people have been killed this year and thousands displaced. catherine, so i traveled to an area in the tour, the province that's been secured by government soldiers for this exclusive report. the government soldiers in a room with territory to the province have recently taken control of the town of bulger. this follows a series of attacks said to have been carried out by the light of chronic forces or adf, an armed group, mostly based in neighboring north cuba province, the abs entry into it. tory is terrifying. those who live in border areas,
