. since taking part in afghanistan, the acting foreign minister, american that we're talking who leads this? taliban delegation says they have discussed aid and have urged the americans to lift the ban on its central bank reserves before the meeting the united states. as we said, it was going to push the taliban on issues including evacuation flights, as well as the rights of women and minority nichols, security of a big talking point, particularly at the threat posed by iso and i've got a sound the i'm group attacked a she r mosque on friday, killing more than 60 people there. so let's not things off here and dog hot to little after 6 pm. natasha can name is a lie for us out on to has waterfront. what more is come out of this meeting today? i know you were saying earlier today that there has been a lot of secrecy and certainly in not much media access 0 media access, although the acting foreign minister in afghanistan did a release,

a statement to the media late this afternoon. but let's take a moment to consider the fact that a mere few months ago, what we saw or what we were hearing happened today in doha, would not have been imaginable. former adversaries on the battlefield with 2 decades of distrust. now representing 2 governments coming together, looking for some kind of consensus around a conference table. there is a chasm between the 2 and now this diplomatic dance begins for each side to begin to find some concessions and perhaps edge closer together. before an acting foreign minister has said that he does want positive relations with the united states, that there should be a mutual commitment, while also issuing a warning that no one should quote, weaken the government of afghanistan, or interfere in its sovereignty and create problems. he also issued a call to the international community for it to assist with its economic woes. they

come to doha with the weight of governance of a country in crisis. as you mentioned to afghanistan has a deteriorating humanitarian situation. security issues with regard to those 2 recent bombings that kill dozens in afghanistan and which i saw in afghanistan, claimed responsibility for and economic woes. so today on the agenda, the foreign minister said that they did discuss humanitarian aid and the distribution of that humanitarian aid. he also said that they looked at implementing the doha agreement. there was some positive things that came out the united states is apparently pledge to provide coven 19 vaccinations. the foreign minister says that it understands that as able, afghanistan is a good for the entire international community. and he had plans to do it's part to

ensure that happens. and here's where there could be common ground between the united states and this afghan transitional government. both obviously wanting a stable environment. the taliban has promised to the afghan population that it would provide security. the americans obviously concerned about afghanistan, once again becoming a haven 2 armed groups. the taliban says that it will work with a moving forward to help pay the salaries of government employees and get services running. but it is asking the united states to ease economic sanctions to lift them and ease any kind of restrictions on the afghan national bank. now as for the american side, they are not talking, but they made clear going into these to day talks that this, these talk should not be mischaracterized as quote, conferring legitimacy or greeting recognition to the taliban. they say it is going to be looking at the taliban actions and looking for an established, sustained

a track record of behavior. in the coming days, it looks like the afghan delegation plans to meet with representatives of the e. u and other countries. natasha and i'm with those updates from the u. s. town talks here in our how thank you natasha. now, asana a bunch of i'd in cobble who has more on the road map leading to that are how talks justified that these 2 sides met is a major development. because this is the 1st time that the government, which is not recognized by any other government in the world, is meeting international powers, including the united states. there's been a major def thrasher views, a because the taliban sees the united states as it defeated army that had pushed out of its country. and the united states seas thought upon as a group of consisting of people which are under sanction list. and many of them are considered terrorists and just getting hair was not easy. it was a roller coaster ride. and there was shuttle diplomacy,

especially by the state of cutter as it hosted these 2 sides of yet again after the u. s. bedroll, the taliban insisting that the united states needs to live up to it's a site of the bargain at when it signed the agreement. and doha, and said that all the sanctions against the taliban will be lifted. and the taliban asking that the united states should make sure that it doesn't infringe on the 40 of, of lantus on the u. s. a side saying that the of understand a government which of empowered the taliban who had been fighting them for 20 years need to live up to their side of the deal. make sure that girls schools are not closed up. there is a government which is inclusive, a government which gives rights to its people. and then finally they were able to sit together. this is the 1st day of today talks between them and the other side on the line up of the taliban was very interesting as well because it's not just a foreign minister. it is the taliban spy, chief it is the taliban deputy interior minister. and they're not only going to be

talking to the diplomats in doha. but they're also going to be talking to various security agencies, including the american's regional powers, international players. doug, they'll be talking to agencies as well to try and get the much needed aid they need for the afghan people. millions of people are in desperate need of help. and we've been hearing from agencies that unless the international community acts in a matter of weeks, not months, there is going to be a humanitarian catastrophe. those were the words of various international donors and agencies who have been seeing the situation on the ground. that aid should not be used as a bargaining chip, but we for the international community which is now lost its leverage. after all its forces pulled out, that might be the only thing that they can use to try and get the taliban to do what they want. the monsoon rules have been taking place in northern afghanistan to the victims of the bombing in condos, which we mentioned o families,

gavin. here to mourn their dead. the attack carried out apparently by a single suicide bomber. more than a 100 people wounded the taliban. a head of security included at the attack was intended to stir up divisions between shia by him and sunni muslims. hash omaha barrow now is in northern afghanistan in the city of mazda is sure if which is close to condos tell us what happened in the 24 hours since this attack ashan, we had the claim of responsibility are from iso. and as i mentioned there this whole idea of stirring divisions. it's exactly what happens while come out today was a day of grief and warning in ton does were families had to bury their loved ones who are killed in the blast in they are in the mosque yesterday. now. it was also a moment of shock for the people there who was saying,

why are these people perpetrating those acts of violence against innocent worshippers who were gathering in a loss for the friday prayers. hospitals were overwhelmed with the numbers over the injured and many remain in critical condition. and this is why people are worried that the death toll could further climb. in the coming days. now, many work leaders came out expressing solidarity with the families and a saying that the international committee should step in and should prosecute those behind the attack. now i selina fly. sand claimed responsibility for the attack, a clear act of defiance against the taliban has said that they would be trying to restore and establish safety and security across af, lightest. and we, we've been taught by, sorry, been officials that we have beefed up,

beefed up our security in the city of calendars, and that they are determined to crack down on ice in enough light. some of this is going to be definitely an extremely delicate moment for the taliban, because hundreds of our i cells are operatives, have been highly trained over the last few years. and they have managed to set up. hobbs in different parts of the country shall about cover and also in condos hash and we focus, understandably, a lot on security in afghanistan. i wonder if you can take us through some of the other issues because i mean things have been tough for afghan people for a long time. just day to day they the economic hardships they go through this is interesting. come out now since i arrived here in a flat, is that cowboy and now in missouri city, every one you talk to would tell you, well that is uncertainty by the future by this fear and anxiety about what could happen next, particularly when it comes to the economic situation in the country,

the concern that stores would run out of supplies, the cannot go to banks to retrieve cash. the concerns are concerned about the border crossings which are close, which means that they won't be able to export their products, they won't be able to get their supplies coming from neighboring country. this is creating a nightmare scenario for millions of of gas view. and he's saying that more than 2 thirds of the afghan people are food insecure and by the winter time, which is just in about few weeks from now. the biggest concern of the situation remains, as it is, the humanitarian situation is likely to further deteriorate, as we're going to see in this report. this is the friendship bridge afghanistan's link with us. becky's dan, a crucial lifeline for international aid and trade taliban and was beck officers guard the crossing. but traffic is slow. the cargo train service that used

to carry over food supplies and commodities has become irregular. the taliban customs officer of the high right m border crossing dismisses international concerns about of got his downs future and what not in that it will got house on it . we want the world to be more confident about doing business with us. they have to see the level of safety and security. the former regime wasn't able to secure the presidential compounds today. all of afghanistan is safe. the taliban is beefing up its presence on the border and promising a crack down on corruption to ensure a smooth movement of people and goods of honest and has always struggle to build a wooden rail network that would link the country to its neighbors and expand trade with central asia, experts and import have dramatically declined in recent weeks as the international

community wants the taliban to implement political reforms form an inclusive government of face isolation. sh hundreds of lori drivers are stuck at the border, waiting for clearance to cross into his pakistan. look, the business is bed traffic along the dairy was never interrupted. now it has been slowed by health, and i cannot bring the same amount of goods into countries. the fall out from international isolation is felt across the country. will feed group is one of the biggest names in the agriculture industry. enough, gone is down. the company extracts oil from seeds, a thriving business that also extends to animal feed. but the company has recently lost 70 percent of its revenues. managers fear they might have to shut down the company or reduce how cation our banks and recon that are getting or payment from them. and the 2nd problem is the closing up the border are surrounding us. so we

can not get our raw material on time with those solutions now inside of the cash shortage and economic crisis life for millions across of got his dan, appears to be getting a lot worse. hash barbara al jazeera, i return crossing, but i've got his sons porter with his becky's dan, one final night on afghanistan, an explosion in manga ha province, in the east of the countries, kill the governor of a local district. 3 of his guards were wounded, an explosive device had been planted on the side of the road. and our group has claimed responsibility. we are 50 minutes past this news are his what's coming up. a. iraq's main parties make big promises ahead of sunday's election, but few believe they can actually deliver the rwandan forces, push them out of it,

following a heavy battle and you can see the remains of it explodes is blown the roof office building in the bullet holes in the eye and sheets, malcolm went there with some rare access in northern mozambique after regional forces drive back the ash about 5 plus your sports news in this teenage stands 1st, maps into us open triumph in defense. ah. are you in refugee office in libya has been forced to close after being overwhelmed by hundreds of people seeking resettlement. you and hcr is urging the government to resume humanitarian lives that have been suspended for most of this year. at a earlier, about 2000 migrants in libya, escaped from a detention center. malik china has more now from tripoli. the iowa has just issued a statement condemning or the killing of 6 migrants and, and,

and the injury of over $24.00 others are now this happened in the ma bonnie detention center which is in the area of charl are yesterday after a riot inside the detention center and an attempted escape, according to the iowa guards began, shooting are resulting in the, in the death of 6 migrants and the injury of 24 others. now this follows a crackdown that happened last week, where living authorities carried out an operation in the area of good goddess. are they detained over 4000 migrants or a during that operation and in the days to follow over a 1000 more. are now these 5000 migrants were put into detention centers across western libya. many of them in the detention center where we saw the escape take, place them advantage detention center. now, in the seed center centered there was 3400 migrants, including 356 women, and a 144 children. a 2000 of them escaped yesterday in the footage. it's just cause

a lot of chaos in the streets of tripoli. or malik mentioned the i o m in that report. and federico so there is the chief of mission for the i o. m international organization for migration in libby. he's on skype, from tripoli today. thanks. excuse me. thank you for your time, sir. there are so many elements to this story. i think the 1st thing we should focus on is actually the violence against these migrants. ah, i mean, is this sort of thing. i don't want to say common, but does it, does it happen? maybe not on this scale? but as it happened previously, yes, thank you very much, it's, it's too common and, and it does happen with too much frequency. we often have loss of life. and in areas that are supposed to be under the control of the authorities, whether they're detention centers or gifts and bartman points after they've been

picked up at sea. but we haven't seen anything of this scale in some time, fortunately, but we're absolutely devastated by the indiscriminate use of live ammunition inside the perimeter of a detention center resulting in the 6 deaths. what sort of explanation have you been given forward? well, no explanation. actually, i, we have received no explanation the, the statements that the government is put out or not explaining anything about the incident. they're there, they're justifying the use of excessive force during the raids to, to indiscriminately around people up. i think it's just, it's indicative of the fact that the government doesn't have full control over these facilities. it didn't, it didn't have the capacity to deal with a heavy inflow of migrants following the raids and all too often when the

situation gets tense, bullet start flying, and, and people get at least hurt and often killed. we talked about the i was gonna say hundreds, i think actually thousands of people who managed to escape one of the detention centers. how many are we talking all up for actually the amount of people who've been, as you, as you turned to rounded up recently. well, it's been a very difficult week. the round, the raid started last friday over 5000 people were basically taken out of a neighborhood doors knocked in and dwellings even bold those to after the operation. in the meantime, these migrants were taken into the, into the detention centers, and it's been tense all week. we have the use of live rounds to basically disperse crowds inside the centers earlier in the week and know what he was injured

. and then the situation really got out of control yesterday afternoon in this one center, in particular, where is massive over crowding because we estimate the capacity of the center to be maxim 1000 people. and there were over 3000 people in the center at that time. so and a number of different armed entities from, from the government as well. so it's really, it's really been a very, very devastating week for the migrants in libya. we have people in detention that have documents that have legal status that have the legal right to be here, but they are arbitrarily inside inside the centers. and what's a, what's a very incredible about all of this is that our humanitarian flights that can get people back to their countries voluntarily and safely,

are suspended by the same authorities that are conducting these raids. we need to keep a close eye on this one and we figure because sort of from the i am in libya. thank you for your time. we appreciate it. thank you. if european forces have launched a new round of air and ground strikes against 2 grey rebels, the attacks took place in the i'm her region. the t p left the to gray people's liberation front has been fighting. probably government forces in the north for the last 11 months, samuel get it with us. now independent journalist on skype from samarra, in the far region of ethiopia, tell us the scale of this sort of thing. air and ground strikes. well, it hasn't been announced. the government hasn't said anything, but it's been reported by a reliable mainstream, new sites or news agencies that and the new york and side has really gone.

what they've been saying from 4 weeks since they've been prime minister, went to turkey, for instance, trying to get some drones or some kind of military support that this action will happen. and it's, it seems it's happening now and, and some of us will have watched it from near us, the government forces. and now our forces are really mobilizing the support that they need to really move forward. and perhaps try to claim what was taken by the t p i left a few months ago. so that's, as i recall, that unilateral cease fire, which was declared by prime minister abbey, i made back at the end of june. i think it was a start of july, i mean, we can just figured about that now. in fact, that's why thing is carried on in the months in between then and now. but that was rejected by the t p left and they said it was a negotiated, it was just announced by the job inside. they never accepted it. they called

a bad joke, a quote unquote. so it was never accepted and the conflict really continued. and the t p left started moving from their region, the to gray region. moving to the fiery region them higher region, and really begun to be more engaged. military wise was friends that never has been explained. and they've started gaining towns and villages. and that really put ethiopia in a bay compromising position, and that's why perhaps the top and side trying to regroup and come back. and this is the action that has been anticipated for a while from them. so we were talking about the fighting here, between ethiopian army and the, and the tpr life. what about the people? how many, what sort of numbers of people are still stuck in those regions? and what sort of conditions that i facing? i mean, we're talking about, i mean above 2000002500000 people have been affected,

displeased that there are conditions of famine and many parts of the country, including them, are in the to gray region. according to the u. n. n. again, a sexual violence is widespread, not just in the to go region as reported in the past, but also, and i'm horror enough i region. so this conflict i've begun in november, it's been almost a year now, is really moving from the to gray region. and it seems to be, are fixing all kinds of ethiopians. and in the millions, 8 yoga has a population of about 110000000 people in close to 3000000 to point 5 to 3000000 people are being affected. and it's just growing. it's that seems it's just beginning and it's will continue and money money. the organs are still hitting to the sudan, looking for some kind of safety nets, samuel get a true, it's always good to talk to you and get that the latest on what is happening there in ethiopia. thank you. thank you. the chinese president,

she didn't ping has again promised. there will be missus his word peaceful re unification with taiwan. she was speaking at a ceremony mocking a 110 years since the end of china's imperial rule. he avoided previous rhetoric that included using force against taiwan. but the island has come under growing military and political pressure to accept china's sovereignty backed in the past week, nearly 150 chinese warplanes have approached taiwanese as space from mcbride, following developments for us from home. these comments by president she jane pain came at an event to mark the 1911 revolution which saw the end of dynastic rule by china's emperors and the birth of modern china. it is an event that is marked both in mainland china and also in taiwan. and is the obvious opportunity for chinese leaders to bring up this vision of re unification whereby territories are returned to the motherland as we have seen with macau and hong kong. within theory,

taiwan being next, she called for the peaceful re unification with taiwan. but warned that there should be no foreign interference. basically, this being taken as a warning to the us not to get involved. he also had a very stern warning for anybody in taiwan who might be considering taking the path of actual independence. fully a good job of taiwan independence is the greatest obstacle to national unification . and a grave danger. the national reachable nation goes to forget their heritage, betrayed their motherland and seek to split the country. oh, it will come to no good and they will be scorned by the people me and condemned by history. taiwan marks its national day on sunday with an administration and the people who are by and large set against any talk of re unification. especially in the face of increasing tensions and the incursions by nearly a 150

a war plains from mainland china. a week ago in statements issued on saturday, a taiwan called on bay ging to abandon what he described as provocative intrusions and harassment. saying that the future of the island rests in the hands of its people. are plenty more had few on this news hour, including elephants and naming an elephant. in fact, as part of an ambitious plan to kickstart kenya's struggling tourist industry. under the smith in moscow wag cove, it looked down, the rising social inequality led to an explosion in the popularity of been of the place. and it's what we'll hear from that's more boxing actually for the heavyweight title, rival is getting ready for fight for a 3rd time. ah
