a long cove at 19 lockdown is east and a crackdown in indian administered kashmir. 700 people are arrested after a series of targeted killings in the past week. ah, the u. s. and u. k. a warning, the citizens of a security threat in afghanistan, capital, american and british citizens have been asked to stay away from hotels in cobble. it follows a recent rise in the isolate tax. many foreigners have left afghanistan up to the u . s. withdrawal in august, but some aid workers and generalists remain for more on this story. let's bring in stephanie decker, whose life for us in kabul. hello there stiff. what more do we know this morning? while, as you mentioned, there are both it states and the u. k. is showing warnings of

a specific security threat, particularly to high profile targets here in the capital. we've known about this for around 48 hours now. the taliban has increased its security presence, particularly with special forces in certain part certain infrastructure as a of the capital. at some point they will close. rose their snipers on roots, me. but this is always been a concern, and i think, you know, as you were talking earlier about the talks going on in doha, the previous agreement between the taliban and the americans was to ensure that afghanistan did not become a safe haven for what they called terrorism. particularly terrorist attack on foreign soil. now i sell an ice. okay. in particular, which is the iso branch of afghanistan and it, we've seen uptick in the last couple of weeks now. taliban and an ice. okay. of 40 each other over the last couple of years. this is not new, but we have seen since the taliban taking power, taking control of afghanistan. now really being it's government that ice okay is

increasing its attacks on the taliban on civilians. and certainly now this is a very specific threat against a particular areas of the capitol. okay, keep us updated this stephanie decker live for us even cobble the taliban is expected to meet representatives from the european union in contest capital. after holding talks with the us delegation, washington says they discuss security evacuation flights and women and minority rights in afghanistan. while the us still refuses to recognize the taliban government, it's a great to provide humanitarian aid directly to the afghan people. zane bez ravi explains the expectation both sides had from the talks in doha. the europeans want primarily to guarantees the same thing. the americans want to make sure that if god, his son does not become a staging ground for any kind of attacks by armed groups such as al qaeda or the islamic state, and they'll be one. it guarantees that there won't be another refugee crisis, like we saw in 2015 in 2016, where refugees of from, of got us on

a serious streamed into european borders. they don't want anything like that. again, how they achieve that is by delivering humanitarian aid to neighboring countries around afghanistan and inside of gone on to that end. european union will be looking for guarantees of being able to fairly access all parts of a gun. it's fun to make sure aid is not sees at airports or at border crossings by the taliban government as it goes into the country. and they'll be looking for a human rights guarantees as well for minorities and women. things that the taliban has either been unable or unwilling to guarantee so far as the security situation continues to worsen in cobble. it is becoming more difficult to make those guarantees. what is the taliban going to be looking for? well, they're looking for engagement. they want international legitimacy to be able to shore up the power they seized in cobble. they also want economic guarantees. and what that means is they want assets to the tune of nearly $10000000000.00 that have been frozen by the united states and european allies. they want those afghan government assets and reserves opened up of for what they consider themselves to be,

which is the current government of afghanistan. they also want the european union to make good on what many are looking at an estimated $351000000.00 in humanitarian relief aid. they want that to come quickly and come fast inside the country. but european analysts have said that that is likely not going to happen any time soon. this is going to be a slow process. there is a trust deficit here. at the taliban have remained enemies for the europeans in the united states for 2 decades. now it's gonna take a long time to close that gap in iraq, voter apathy and a boycott campaign appear to have contributed to a record low turn out. election commission says initial attendance in sundays parliamentary vote was about 41 percent at the lowest in the 5 elections in saddam hussein was deposed in 2003. the 1st official results are expected later on monday . my mode after a while head has more on the low voter turnout from baghdad. that's basically attributed to the boy cutting campaigns that have been launched dead over the past
