a dispute with kenya over coastal waters. the nairobi has already rejected the court's authority. in the case, one of the worst public health valley is a critical report by british m pays into bars. johnson's early handling of the cove at 19 pandemic plas tensions escalate. in southern chile, as indigenous fight has seized forests from logging companies. the governments expected to declare a state of emergency. ah, b e u has pledged a 1000000000 dollars for afghanistan as late as of the world's 20 largest economies . met to discuss the situation ma'am. the european commission chief says the money will help avoid a major humanitarian and socio economic collapse. it will be given to international organizations working in afghanistan, not to the taliban government, which brussels does not recognize. the un has warned the nation is facing

a possible humanitarian crisis and its economy is on the brink of collapse. katara is invited to the g 20 virtual summit because of its mediation efforts and near term im being hammered. al fanny appealed to the ladies and the taliban to honor commitments made at the doe, had talked and took the opportunity to remind the international community of its obligations to the afghan people. if i had the tim, how will i see her? the deal included agreements of dialogue between afghani partners themselves. in addition to the withdrawal of the coalition forces from the afghan territories, the hope was that there will be peace and no other activities that pose a threat to other countries will take place from afghani territory. your it is upon of gun histones k. take a government to implement that. the international community has a responsibility towards afghanistan. emma, that includes international and humanitarian aid to afghanistan to j. experience has shown that isolation leads to polarization and sharp positions. we know that

corporation and dialogue could lead to moderation and resolution of conflict last quarter. that june, 20 meeting comes as delegations from u. s. u. k and european union gathered here in dore ha, with representatives of afghanistan's k. take a government, the afghan acting foreign minister says his administration is entering a new phase in his country's relationship with the rest of the world. the tele, barney is on a diplomatic push for international support and recognition. stephanie decker has more from cavil. the one leverage the international community has, is this recognition, recognizing the taliban as the official government here in afghanistan. so this is what they're using to put pressure on them to form an all inclusive government. at the moment the interim government is made up only of taliban members. there are a few minorities, but certainly there are the women, women also women's rights. a major issue talking about allowing particularly girls between the ages of 12 and 18 to return to school and university. that hasn't

happened yet to taliban says they are looking into it. they will do it. but it takes time to sort out the logistics in terms of segregating boys and girls from going to school. so this is a back and forth when it comes to the politics politically. but it's really causing a major impact on the ground. as you've been saying, as countries become fully dependent on international aid, on the international influx is of cash over the last 2 decades of war here, and that's suddenly been withheld. so what you see is a, is a, you know, we'll talk about the economy in free for what does that mean? it means that people cannot feed their families. it means they don't have money, it means, or no jobs. it means that you know, they're selling their household goods. it means that people who work on a daily basis hand to mouth, can no longer feed themselves. that translates to 8 organizations, giving severe warnings about what's happening here, particularly world food program, say only 5 percent. i'm just imagine that of households are actually eating enough and people have large family, so is incredibly difficult. salaries haven't been paid. the security situation is

difficult with an increase of ice. okay. and that's something that the international community in particular is very worried about. so i think at some point, something is going to have to give, but yes, i mean this international recognition is the only leverage the international community has. and they're hoping that that's going to put pressure on the taliban to make some kinds of concessions to their demands. then figure out a way forward the deputy executive director at unicef, pharma abdi visited afghanistan last week, is, is the humanitarian crisis, will likely continue to, to, to rearrange even before the recent i, people, we estimated about 10000000 children were in need of humanitarian support. and at least 1000000 of those were crisco dying, severe mom attrition. i visited their hospital in capital or the money. attrition was what we saw was very shock chill. the hospital was chill beyond capacity and lot of children did break of dying for boundary tricia. we expect this tuition

to even get worse with the winter coming with severe trouts with the collapse of the social service system. as you reported, situation will get worse unless we all get out quickly to attest. sort of the priorities to humanity and crisis while talk sat on going between the de facto government and the international community. we have had similar situation in yemen and other places for support to protect you went to the population. so the you and can set up systems where support can reach people directly to the rest of the day's news in the u. n's top court has rejected kenya's claims in a maritime borders fusion in the notion. so money have filed the lawsuit with the international court of justice in the hague. it accused kenya of

a legally awarding exploration rights in waters. my dish is, is, and within its boundary, kenya has already said it will not recognize the court's ruling. malcolm web has moved from nairobi. the court has ruled largely in favor of the malia in the area of ocean in question. according to the court ruling mostly goes to somalia, but a leader of it does go to kenya scenarios. see this widely believed to be rich in oil and gas deposits, and kenya had actually given concessions to international oil companies to start exploring this area. that's what triggered this maritime borders. dispute in the 1st place, kenya had already rejected the jurisdiction of the court before the ruling. it said it wasn't going to accept it, that the court said that kenya, con, retroactively pull out of the court jurisdiction which had signed up to in the 1960 . they can use legal obligation to hold the ruling still stands. the question is,

what are each of these countries going to do next? the malia has now a strong position with this court really ruling to seek diplomatic support from the united nations. from the security council can use position is weaker, but it's certainly depend what 2 countries choose to do what the allies choose to do. and certainly important to remember that there are international oil companies and foreign government for the behind. each of the countries respective interest in extracting the wealth from the natural resources beneath the sea. let's take a look at the claims being made by kenya and somalia, that malcolm touched on at stake is control of that 100000 square kilometers stretch of the indian ocean with prospects of vast oil and gas deposits. can you says it's maritime borders should be drawn in a line east parallel to the line of latitude. somalia, however, says it should be expanded for the south as an extension of the land border. the

dispute has further strained relations between the neighbors. george, why jack is an expert on maritime and international law. he says, can you conte appeals against the decision? the impact is great. the inbox is great given the fact that, so mine has been given and i got junk of land, which means that it's going to reduce it into a landlocked country, even if it will have us more positive, not have an excuse if enjoyment of an exclusive economic zone, which means that, that the king and economic future in the see in the blue jeep economics is going to be reduced to some extent. secondly, the book or so i've got 5 inches consequences. whereby both by this now i have to find out the solution of addition when they want to never see it

deals separately from building one of the want to have some kind of an acord. well, it can, has got in a way every evening which i don't see because they walked out of the court. we don't know. there are so many mechanisms of enforcement. number one, this is an international law, and you're dealing international court to find what you stitched. and you're also dealing the court by the say, come by to say, she's diction, which is actually step which stands his spouse from the united missions. where the guiding must say, this is the united national security council, with the international monetary fund, is wanting the family to a clean, distribute cobit 19 vaccines worldwide is darkening prospects for developing nations. it's cut it's global growth for cons to 5.9 percent this year. slightly

lower than what it predicted 3 months ago. it's also calling on banks to be prepared to act quickly in the face of worsening inflection. you can't government's delay in imposing a lock down at the start of the pandemic. is one of the country's worst ever public health failures. that's the conclusion of the newly released parliamentary report. the inquiry by impede is also found to releasing people from hospital into care homes, cost thousands of lives, jonah hel, reports from london mph from across the political spectrum. have delivered a damning verdict on the government's handling of the coven 19 pandemic. in the words of a parliamentary report, it was one of the worst public health failures in u. k. history. it left vulnerable groups exposed and led to one of the worst outcomes among developed world economies. from this evening, i must give the british people a very simple instruction. you must stay at home for his johnson's delay in

ordering the 1st lockdown in march 2020. the report says, cost many lives. it was part of a deliberate policy based on scientific advice aimed at achieving heard immunity, something the government has always denied, and a so called group think among ministers and government scientists. the report says, lead to a failure to learn lessons from what other countries were doing. it took too long to make that decision. i think everyone recognizes that. now we should have been able to avoid a locked and altogether, if we'd follow the muddle taken in taiwan or south korea. ah, whither much expanded testing trace program? right from the outset? or we could have avoided locking down in that 1st year as those countries did. so that that is a big lesson. despite being one of the 1st countries to develop a test for coven 19 in january 2020. the report says the u. k. squandered that lead, turning it into a situation of permanent crisis when mass testing was halted in march. by the time

a test trace, an isolated system did come along in the summer. it was say, and peace, slow, uncertain, often chaotic. there are moments of praise for the vaccine roll out of the development of life saving treatments, both involving scientists from oxford university. but that does not exonerate the government or it's advisors for a litany of criticism set out in what is an almost universally scathing report lobby akin. ola lost his dad phemie to cobit 19 in april last year. he wants an apology. this moment here isn't about politics. navarre saving face, it's about understanding the pain of people going through and doing what we can to ameliorate that and, and prevent it from happening again. i think you can convey all of that in 2 simple words. i'm sorry, so that decision to not do that. i think, sense a different unfortunate messrs quite loudly,
