7:04 pm
just over a 1000 people have voted across new or province. we're hearing that the vote turn out will be around 21 to 25 percent. that's incredibly, incredibly low. now, what's the reason for that? well, they say that all politics is local. one of the driving issues of the anger and the frustration that residence of mosul fil is the fact that i feel that central baghdad, the government that has completely ignored them. this was sent the scene of some the most intense fighting against iceland, 2017. i'll just give you an example. you can see just often the distance there. that's one of the houses that was always completely destroyed all along the street right. the way down for miles, you can see destroyed houses, bullet holes, and just complete destruction the residence of very angry the central baghdad hasn't given them the money to rebuild their homes. a lot of people still living in displacement camps because they can't come back to mosul because there's nothing to
7:05 pm
come back to their houses, the and if the work, there's a running water, there's no gas, there's no electricity that's driving or the lack of voting, hey, what's most residents are saying is that actually what's the point? nothing ever changes and we're very angry. so that boycott the vote movement that we've been talking about over the last few days does seem to have translated into a lack of action at the polling station. thousands of tennesseans are back on the streets of the capital, protesting against their president. ah, there been demonstration since place i had seen near total power 2 months ago. and he came out and supposed to the president, this latest protest is the biggest so far by those who accuse him of carrying out of 2 sam kimball in tune. it says there were a few scuffles, but overall the atmosphere was calm. what happened here in tunis to day was a gathering a demonstration of several 1000 people on tunis. his main thoroughfare avenue have
7:06 pm
been able to give a look to be several 1000 people from different parts of tunis and they had a very emotional and intense slogans such as the people want the removal of the president. no fear power is with the people also chanting the chinese national anthem and, and there was a heavy, heavy police protest. and in the demonstration, there were some skirmishes between protesters and police. there were some notable political figures, including the opposition politician jail had been embark, who originally called for this protest last sunday, who got up and made speeches. and, and it should also be said that a crew from tunisia, national broadcaster, and what the nia was assaulted during the protests. and all of this, after the location for the protest was suddenly changed to the last minute warning
7:07 pm
by authorities and who, who moved it down to a more tightly constrained spot on the central avenue or be able to give up. now at least 6 people have been killed by a car, ballman, yelman's port city of aidan, the governor and the environment minister both survived the blast, which happened as the convoy was passing. aiden is the seat of yeomans, internationally recognized government representatives of the taliban say they've wrapped up what they're calling positive talks with the u. s. in carter. and now sitting down with a delegation from the european union, the u. s. bond talks were the 1st faith held in person since its takeover of afghanistan in august dash, or when i am joins us now, live from dallas, so they're describing them as positive. what happened
7:08 pm
well. 1 if you look at the language, here's where we're going to have to infer read between the lines here because the americans at this point are offering any details. as the talks conclude though, i expect they will a, in the coming hours, if not tomorrow, but we are from the acting of foreign minister and the information ministry in afghanistan getting what they describe as a positive news, which is by their characterization, the to day meetings the 1st time meetings were quote positive, and that they hope it paves the way for recognition of the afghan government, not only by the united states, but the international community. this afghan delegation led by the acting foreign minister, came to doha, seeking international recognition. but really, most importantly, the financial assistance that comes with it, what concessions were made to get financial assistance. what a, what deals might be made between the 2 sides?
7:09 pm
we don't know as of yet, but what we do know is that the afghan delegation was asking the united states to end economic sanctions to unfreeze assets. the united states had frozen about $10000000000.00 in afghan assets as a kind of leverage. once the taliban took over, the united states coming into these meetings, underscoring the fact that they did not believe these talks were recognition of the government or conferring any kind of legitimacy to it. but again, that was at the onset of the talk. so the united states has made clear that it's looking to the taliban to have a judge it by its actions. the taliban for its part has said that it needs to pay government employees. it needs to provide services for afghans. and of course, it's dealing not only with a looming humanitarian crisis, but also an economic one. just today, the un refugee agency is saying as winter approaches, 3 and
7:10 pm
a half 1000000 afghans remain displaced. half the population relies on financial assistance and if they don't get it, the you had refugee agency was predicting quote, a catastrophe on the security fraud. here is where i think it's reasonable to speculate that there may have been some common ground between the american and the afghan delegation. though publicly the taliban has said, it does not need assistance from the united states to squash iso in afghanistan. iceland, afghanistan has been responsible since august for several deadly bombings. but, you know, the united states, of course, is very concerned about eiffel and other armed groups being allowed a safe haven to operate in afghanistan. the united states is also very concerned about a 100 americans and thousands of african allies who they say are fearing reprisals by the taliban and desperately want to leave the country. u. s. senator saying
7:11 pm
today that these talks needed to be a can dition of allowing these people to leave afghanistan 1st and foremost before anything else. but at this point, from what we're hearing, at least on the afghan side, it was a positive meeting, which again, i think one can infer that perhaps this means that maybe some financial assistance, humanitarian assistance, might be on route to cobble time will tell, i guess thanks so much and special name women in afghanistan are urging other women around the world to rally for their rights ah, activists. the clad october, the 10th international day of women, solidarity with afghan women to protest against thought about rules. the group has already imposed numerous restrictions on women and girls, including limitations on schooling and work. the thought yvonne has promised to
