ah, with tiny hidden cameras, criminals are illegally filming, and sharing people's most intimate moments. when east investigate south korea's by coming the demick on al jazeera ah dozens killed in northern afghanistan and a powerful boss of a she a mosque, a worst attack since foreign forces left the country. ah. hello again. uncommon, santa maria here and joe hall. this is the world news from al jazeera. when you're in a battle for junior listen, he's act,

we need to protect the philippines. journalist, maria theresa says a warning the nobel peace prize to her, and russian editor dmitri mood itself. will encourage people to hold power to account also migration and the cycled war on drugs top the agenda was the us and mexico meet trying to men some fried relations. the european union warns of consequences off to poland. top court challenges the blocks legal authority. ah, so the 60 people of been killed in northern afghan to stand in the deadliest attack since foreign forces left the country. hundreds is injured as well and that explosion it happened during friday. prayers that the shia mosque in the city of condos close to the border with tajikistan. no group is claimed responsibility, but the taliban face is a growing threat posed by i saw in afghanistan. a group took responsibility for

a mosque attack in cobble 5 days ago which killed 13 people, undergo quoting gross. i was busy doing construction work at home. as soon as the praying started, we heard the explosion. i went to look for my relatives at the mosque and all i saw were bodies on the floor. our 1st my look to get an update on that story a little later. but still with afghan, a stand the, you and human rights councils agree to appoint a new special rapport. church of the country. are they always responsible for monitoring human rights following the taliban takeover? amnesty international welcome. the decision saying an independent investigative mechanism will be critical. the organizations accused the taliban of human rights violations, including targeted killings of civilians and a blocking of humanitarian aids. his face zealand, a professor of political science at cobble university and executive director of the democracy, peace and development, think tank. he says the u. n. is using the move as a tool to put pressure on this new taliban government. it is already politically,

economically and socially pressurizing taliban not. busy busy only in the case of legitimacy and cognition, but also in case of running the day to day governance management, people are desperate getting the baby disappointed with. busy the lake or resources, lake or living resources and lack of connectivity to the rest of the work. i think the trusty p and a lot of crimes of been committed and i've gone it's done in us for decades since the soviet the innovation. once we are going through such reports and probably, and of alleged humanitarian crimes, and i've gone on, you must not forget that the people who committed such crimes and ninety's they were they were so called in which i hate the units, but they become light on the ground with. busy us and nato forces their under government to become the deputy of president. so did become defense ministers

to become envious directors and many of them were running the big provinces. but now using apple to as a tool to push it. i said taliban with the crimes committed and also since the withdrawal it will not only justify the previous lot of times, but it will also add more to the kit. struck specifically the community didn't get us trophy in crisis and the country and i'm upcoming days. so let's return then to that attack on the she almost can come to stephanie decker following event from campbell. any update stephanie? well, yes, we've just had a claim of responsibility isis k, that is the isis brought here in afghanistan of what i saw. and as they call it, came in responsibility through their telegram channel for that deadly at suicide

bombing inside a mosque in could do that. this is significant. it seems to be the 1st attack of its kind in that area we've seen increased attacks, particularly in eastern afghanistan and the area of jal abad. we had the suicide bombing also claimed by ices k at the mos karen cobble last sunday. significant also because that was where a senior gathering of taliban leaders were, mourning the passing of the mother of the spokesperson of the group or they mash a detonate themselves. one person at the main entrance checkpoint to the not to the most security was very tight. so you know, it is, it is rudy. a message of defiance to the town of bon tell about now having to deal with i think is an increase threat. certainly here in cobble come all there has been a campaign by the taliban and there's been raised. they've made arrests. they've also killed a couple of members according to them of ices k over the last week. but i think yes, it shows you now that there is a challenge to the tele bonds narrative,

certainly when they say that they are the only ones who are able to bring security to this country. many people will tell you that the last 2 months or so, it has been far more peaceful that we are seemingly seeing a pattern now of attacks by isis k, both against the taliban and civilians. this was a she, a mosque of the minority has ara community. so this is a concern. and as you know, we've got the acting foreign minister of the taliban in doha. we're expecting talks to happen over the next couple of days. we know the international community is concerned particular about groups like isis, you know, using taliban as a base to carry out attacks abroad. that's part of the dough agreement and let's chat about how to stop them from doing that. i think it will be interesting to see what is going to be done, but certainly i think a security challenge here for the talk about at the moment. i wrong kids in it, stephanie, all the disruption which the taliban had brought itself for the last. however many years, and now after such a seemingly easy take over the country,

then now seeing how well when the shoes on the other foot, i guess absolutely, i mean the taliban. and we're an insurgency group until just about 2 months ago, carrying out exactly these kinds of attacks. so now as you say, the tables are turned down. there is an irony to read. and of course, there's one thing to be an insurgency group with fighters in the mountains. that's a language they know very well. what they need to do now is run a country run ministries, run politics, make sure the health care system works. they're dealing with massive economic crisis here, as each national community withholds millions and millions and millions of dollars of a that this country has become dependent upon come all over the last 2 decades. the people are desperate. people are selling off their products. they're, you know, household items just to get the most basic of money to be able to survive day by day. that's an exaggeration. when you listen, you know, to the 8 agencies that are warning and sometimes it sounds like a cliche, you know, it's a cat catastrophe. is looming, the health care system is about to collapse. you know,

there's famine. this is true when it comes to afghanistan. i don't think we can underestimate that. so i think these talks as window are going to be important this, you know, into the stand off. if you will, between the town about an international community, a having a major impact on the people and be now of course, you know, the talk about saying that they're, they're the ones that can provide security. they're now dealing with a real threat that i think, you know, they do down play, but it seems to me now there is a bit of a pattern here. and um, you know, it's a concern certainly moving forward. not even 2 months as it since the taliban took over. thank you. stephanie decker in cobble on to other news, the nobel peace prize, which has been awarded to philippine journalist maria vesa and the russian journalist dmitri moore, to 12 for their fight to defend freedom of expression. they all representatives of all journalists who stand up for this idea in the world in which democracy and freedom of the press. increasingly of a condition norwegian nobel committee announcing the parents joined twin as of the

2021 prize at the ceremony, and also chairwoman berry that i saw on the sinew. so they commanding them for their fearless journalism. well, only we spoke directly to monitor your dresser, who told us how important it is to find ways to counter the spread of misinformation. so she through social media when news organizations last are keeping powers, the technology platforms are the, those platforms advocated responsibility for the public sphere. and back has made facts debatable because the data, fax, it lies are actually treated equally. in fact, the algorithms of the world's largest distributor of news facebook actually favors lice laced with anger and hate spread faster and further than facts. so when facts are debatable, when you don't have tracks, then you can't have truth. and then you can't have trust that any of these things.

you don't have a shared reality. you can't have democracy. you certainly can't have any meaningful human engage to deal with the x a central problems we face climate ah, the corona virus. so i think this is what the choice of the committee has shown that we must maintain facts, but the people in charge of maintaining the acts, the people tasks with that are facing, far greater danger than we ever have before. we work on it on 3 fronts, the 1st this to expose to tell people to do the stories that show exactly how insidious manipulation happens, how social media has, has become a behavior modification system. the 2nd is to actually strengthen independent journalism. continue to demand. so in this case, legislation for the tech and then i just was recently i accepted a co chair for the international fun for public interest media along with the

former ceo of the new york times to actually try to help independent media survivors. and then the 3rd pillar is community that you talk about trust. well, you can't have trust if the platforms take it. if a virus wise enters the information ecosystem. so the way you do that is you begin to create communities that build resilience and, and we're going to do that by making sure that it is fact based evidence based reasoning that can help take apart the problems. we face of a nobel honor for dimitry min itself comes just a day after russians observed the 15th anniversary of the killing of investigative journalist. annette pollock of sky of sky was a fierce critic of president vladimir putin, and the cremeans was in chechnya. also, she worked for in the via gazetted the paper which would of edits. she was shot dead outside her apartment block in moscow. 7th of october,

ah, on al jazeera, these are the top stories this, our afghan official say at least 60 people have been killed in a bomb attack. or she a mosque and couldn't do us more than a 100 others wounded. and just in the past few minutes, iceland, afghanistan has taken responsibility for it. the you and human rights counsels agree to appoint a new special reporter on afghanistan who will be responsible for monitoring human rights following the taliban. take a nobel peace prize has been awarded to a journalist, maria theresa, and to me treat moodle. a committee chair woman betty sanderson commanded them for their fearless job. let's look at mexico with you, a secretary state and at the top officials of visiting to discuss

a new security deal. they are meeting president under s. manuel lopez open a door and government ministers talks aimed at reducing violence and drugs, trafficking by sharing information across the border. after 13 years of the marita initiative, it's time for a comprehensive new approach to our security cooperation. one that will see us as equal partners in defining our shared priorities. tackle the root drivers of these challenges, like in equity, like corruption, and focus not only on strengthening long foresman, but also public health. the rule of law inclusive economic opportunities. right, let's start with chaper tanzania, who's in washington, dc and and she had secretary state blank and they talking about the 2 countries being equal partners, them in a different so we say from the previous 4 years during the trump administration where things really went downhill. yes. but it's yet to be seen. we're how

different the biden ministration is going to be. i mean, obviously we've been reporting for months about how biden hasn't always continuity with, with his predecessors. migration policies, basically outsourcing everything to mexico. you deal with all this, which is causing great deal, regular harm and danger to migrants moving south to the took to talk to the southern board of the united states in violation of prime of a she off, international and domestic law on, on the u. s. his obligations towards refugees, a no change there, but, and that's what being of being an equal partner. those, again, they're still saying, okay, mexico you deal with us even though there is some talk of, you know, the legal challenges and other things going on, which a bit more complicated. but then when, when we start talking about the married or into initiative, it gets really, really interesting because this is all about the war on drugs now. and since 2007 or so, when philippe color on e a, the mexican president announce the war on drugs with the full support of the u. s. the u. s. has been spending billions of dollars on militarized mexican society. and

what has been the results, tens of thousands of dead 10, tens of thousands of disappeared even more supply of drugs northwards even cheaper supplies of drugs northwards. because the u. s. and the u. s. and previous mexican ministrations have said, look, we want to fight the cartels at pirate. what he says, this is what they say to dk capitation strategies gather going off their leaders. but it just leads to more violence, more balance. and so it goes on. now we have a new mac, mac, well, a new mexican president who went for a different route, talking about the sort of things of lincoln was talking about that the root causes of the drug trade, economic inequality talking about harm reduction, public health. this is all very well, but as mexican activists have been saying, we reported for years, the point of view from mexico has been what are we supposed to do is almost as is enormous demand north of our border and belongs, you criminalize it in, have your war on drugs in america, then, of course is going to be a market, had read all that money coming to for the caught else is coming from the u. s. the guns are coming from the u. s. what are you guys doing about about your policies in

the meantime until you saw that what you're doing when we have to reach some sort of accommodation and agreement, and try and understand how to manage this it's, it's america's problem, this bleeding into mexico on mexico's problem this meeting into american, i'm not sure we've seen that sort of fundamental shift from biden yet. and then he talks about economic inequality where the early stages of the new renegotiate and laughter, u. s. m. ca, which did looks like the encouraging counter intuitively, perhaps negotiated on the trump, which didn't seem to look, make the us look at more mexican as more than just a bunch of sweatshops. what we have yet to see now, how biden's gonna follow through on that as well. okay, she had, thank you. we'll talk to you later on. hopefully after we've heard from a particular sector state blanket, manual rampal. i mean, while in mexico city at the following events, for us there are doing a pick up on, on what share was there was talking about the sort of miss imbalance, i guess that exists and, and each countries arguments the try come all and

does she have is correct when he's talking about these is of this large ground that needs to be covered in these talks, which is, is a vara, of a variety of different topics that are being talked about. there's also this divergence when it comes to the strategy that mexico's implementing, compared to the strategy that the united states wants mexico to be implementing. so the, among the things that are going to be discussed are this by the bilateral efforts when it comes to cobit response. immigration is obviously going to be a big topic that's going to be discussed during these talks taking place here in mexico. as well as the reopening of the us mexico border, which has been closed under title 42 of the united states used, citing the cobit ongoing coven pandemic as a reason to, to, to sort of suspend the traditional asylum process for migrants trying to reach the united states, but the central theme that we're seeing here is this re establishing of a security cooperation of bilateral security agreement between the united states and mexico and was being touted is the so called us mexico bicentennial framework for security, public health and safe communications. it's a mouthful,

there's no acronym for this yet. but the idea here is for the united states to, to sort of rekindle this, this past bilateral strategy relationship that once existed between a. 2 former mexican president for the pick i did on and former us president george w bush when they launched the mexican drug war in 2006 and then later signed the meda initiative in 2008. now the miti, the initiative, is the security strategy that essentially is being looked to be replaced during these these talks, as you have mentioned as well, $3000000000.00 spent on security training equipment over the course of 13 years. and the point of view for many security analysts here in mexico is that it's a plan that's failed. it's a plan that needs not only revising but it's a drastically different approach to truly curb violence in the country. we're talking about more than 300000 people who have died since 2006 since the, as a direct result of, of the drug war violence homicides here. mex, have begun to plateau over the last 5 years,

but the country still averaging more than $35000.00 violent deaths every year, drug related deaths. so there's also an expectation that because of this divergence and strategy between the 2 countries, they may not see eye to eye. they may not be reaching an agreement right away. but what we did here from both countries is a willingness to sort of rekindled this relationship between the 2 countries that sort of dissolved over the past few years. and what we heard from the mexican president earlier today is that regardless of the outcome of these talks, it will end in a quote strengthened relationship between mexico and the united states on martina's in mexico city for us. thank you. manuel. security forces have freed at least a 187 people kidnapped by armed gangs in northern nigeria. a hostages, including babies, were rescued from the forest in some far a state. after being held for weeks, my dear in forces recently launched a major security operation against kidnap as in the state that borders neesha, his mo, from made address, he's in kaduna. these operations have been going on and ahead of these operations

are, there were measures a raft of measures announced by governments in the region announcing measures that will help security forces deal with the situation. these include the cutting of telephone networks and those areas banning the cell of patrol in cans and other containers and also binding the use of motorcycles in the region, which is of course, ah, the preferred means of transportation by these band is because it's easy to maneuver in the forest and other bushes, with motorcycles rather than heavy duty vehicles. they've also announced the shutting down of markets, transportation of animals which of course the bandits are go and rustle and sell to make profit and buy more guns and continue the operations. and as the operations continue, we hear reports of these bandits after their camps have been destroyed by military, bombardments and ground forces the out. they are beginning to move to other states in the north, west and central puzzled nigeria, so it's still aren't on operation going on in northwest nigeria and probably in

north central parts of niger will. early versions began in parliamentary elections in iraq, security forces, prisoners, internally displaced people. they had half their balance. 2 days before the general vote election was one of the key demands of an anti government protest movement began in 2019 the european commissions warned of possible sanctions if poland doesn't respect e, you law. helen's top court ruled that eve, institutions shouldn't interfere with the polish judiciary and as a challenge to the supremacy of you, law over national laws, which is the key principle of the entire union. raising questions now have a poland future in the block, and it's access to eager funding. all rulings by the european court of justice are binding on all member states authorities, including national courts. you law has primacy over national law,

including constitutional provisions. this is what all member states have signed up to. as members of the european union, we will use all the powers that we have under the treaties to ensure this the court ruling is just the latest dispute between poland and the e. u. the block has criticized the polish government for what it sees as a rolling back of civil liberties. these are a few them. 2017. poland, created an institution for disciplining judges and prosecutors and e. u. court ordered them to dissolve at saying it undermine the rule of law. and 2019 several polish regions passed resolutions condemning what they called l. g. b t. ideology. the commission threatened to pull funding st. violated laws against discrimination and early this year, paul and passed a media law which prevents non e, you companies from holding a controlling state in polish media. the government says it's needed to curb the influence of hostile foreign powers, but again, the

e says i could undermine freedom of the press. voice. actually belsky is the editor in chief of visegrad insight, a political magazine. and he says, this ruling may help the government to consolidate its power. we know from the ruling of the european court of human rights, that the tribunal does not meet the criteria of an independent court. and it is politically influenced by the politicians. we know that from the ruling, and we know that from the journalistic reporting of the type of relationship that the top officials of this tribunal half with the sitting party officials. and it's clearly a political interest here rather than the rule of law. this ruling suspends the act of the activity of something the position calls the counselor on the polish traditional system in poland. a highly politicized chambers within the supreme

court that undermine again the independence of the court system. and the european court. busy of justice ruled in accordance with the polish regulations, with the polish constitutions, and taking into account the polish law in order to protect the independence. there is no unmovable objects here. there is a political position of the party that is deeply divided internally and seeks to consolidate on the polarization tactics. it's a political marketing tactics which has very serious consequences, of course, for poland into those europe. but it's merely merely death and nothing of conflict. of the legal of the, of the legal type of weight of the legal arguments. the new prime minister of japan from yoko sheet, as promised to focus on leading the country out of the crisis created by the pandemic. and his 1st policy speech he called for cash payouts to companies and

people who've been hit hardest by the outbreak of scot jaila. it is 1st policy address since taking office japanese prime minister for me o key. she'd have said that he's focused on leading his country out of the coven, 19 crisis. to see the government majestically enhanced the capability for its k with 19 crisis response to strengthening the functions of government leadership restraining the flow of people, making legislative steps to secure medical resources, as well as developing domestic that seems in madison. a longstanding state of emergency issued to curb coven 19 cases was lifted earlier this month. this as daily cases have fallen recently. his predecessor, yoshi, he de saga saw a dramatic slide in support when case is searched. what the pandemic is not the only challenge the former foreign minister will be facing in his new job. security will also be front and center as tension between the u. s. and china is extremely high, especially over territory around taiwan. watson,

usa and north korea has restarted testing its missile systems. he sheeta has indicated he's consider encountering this regional tension with more force breaking with his countries defensive only, military posture, some field it might not be enough. he she that mentioned just loose and lee that japan might need to develop stright capability rather than defensive culpability lay and time as i defense. japan has that ability. but what if ah, does country like north korea has not only one chalk, but stick and chalk that a chalk of messiah. what depends on to do it, addressing the relationship with the regions top power, china kesha focused on stability and dialogue to go through ha, until it is important to build stable ties with china for both countries and the region as well as the international community. while working with countries with which we share universal values, we say what needs to be said to china and demand firmly that it behave responsibly

. we also will maintain dialogue and continue cooperating with them and tackling common issues. my. the new p. m will need to gain momentum and grow his support quickly. as his ruling liberal democratic party faces a general election on october 31st, it's got idler al. jazeera fanny samples collected by china's luna prob, have been identified as coming from some of the moon's youngest volcanic rocks. young as in 2000000000 years old, which does make them a 1000000000 years younger than previous fines. the jang 5 luna mission is next expected to collect rocks from the moon's south pole. ah and how fast they are? these are the headlines. afghan officials say at least 60 people have been killed in a bomb attack at a sheer mosque in condos. more than a 100 others have been wounded and i.
