kandahar kandahar is in the south of the country. it is the taliban stronghold. it's birthplace. it's heart a seat of power. so i message there. i think again, we haven't had a claim of responsibility as of yet, but i think it's pretty certain that the taliban will be pointing fingers as they have done in the past before any claim of responsibility to ice. okay. i saw in afghanistan, thousands of people are protesting at a border crossing between afghanistan and pakistan. that's been closed for more than a week now. no, not yet. i don't yet. they are conflicting claims about who shut the border and why pakistani officials say the afghan side had been closed without notice. but afghan state media claimed it was shot by the pakistani authorities. lebanon is observing a day of national morning after baby it's worst street violence in more than a decade. few nodes are being held for the 7 people killed when the city was rocked by gunfire and rocket propelled grenades on thursday. zen hunter has moved from bay

boot. well, lebanon is still on the edge. as you can see, behind me, life appears to be normal, at least on the surface. but there is a cautious calm or heavy presence of the army. and in fact, they've set up checkpoints leading to both neighborhoods because this highway separates the neighborhoods of fear. and i know remaining neighborhoods, which are also strong holds of 2 political parties, long time and amused the she are political groups, amola has the law and the christian lebanese forces. and what we saw really were nearly 5 hours of gun battles that raged in the streets. they are preparing to bury their dead 7 people were killed, but while the guns may have fallen silence, the crisis is far from over that judge product, because as well on i'm a continue to insist that he'd be removed that he'd be dismissed. they consider him politicize. the opposition sees it differently. they believed that bizarre should

be given a chance that they should not judge him until his investigation is complete. in fact, the survivors and the families of the victims. they say that they have faith in baton. they call him a rare judges who can see if people picking up the pieces they, they consider him one of the rare judges who is not politically affiliated. so there is still tension. the crisis is not over and the guns fell silent and it was sudden it's suddenly fell silent. there was some sort of undeclared truth. so it's not clear whether or not this is just is over or whether this is just round one. australia prime minister says he will attend the un climate summit in glasgow later this month. scott morrison had initially threatened to skip the camp $26.00 event in scotland. however, they are report that china's leaders teaching being will not go to classical. it's not just about hitting that xerox. that's an important environmental goal. the, what's important to this trial is economy goes from strength to strength,

aah! france once had a vast empire covering over 11000000 square kilometers of the world by the 19th thirty's, it comprised over a 100000000 people. but after the 2nd world war, national independence movements rule and pressure mounted on france in asia, africa, and the americas to let go of many of its colonies. pressure that it resisted often violently. uprisings in algeria, the middle east and madagascar were subdued with brutal force

trouble, also similar in the caribbean and ivory. and in indo china, full scale war broke out. how long could france hold out against the tide of history? it was living in a new world now, in which the new global powers of the united states and the soviet union were locked in the cold war. and in which old empires, what crumbling. this is the story of the collapse of one of the biggest empires the world does ever see. and how the blood didn't. tears shed decades ago, i still felt in the world today. ah,

the war in indo china began in december 1946, and after 4 years stuck in the quagmire of vietnam, the french were forced to take stock. they sent for reinforcements. from now on half of their troops would come from morocco synagogue. and even algeria, as in 1939, the colonies had to come to the rescue of the colonizing power. and as in madagascar 3 hears before, they were forced to fight other colonized people. little bit vital, voluntarily a potter, i'm if one says papa, turning bushy. lila mit is that because she's with volunteers divulge of hispanic saga as well as from home fisher was as long as the landman isn't until it comedies him of fissile a propaganda faucet is to come in for one of our buses that he did arco when aliya

thought the colon. well, a gently she ad theory. nope, no, this on there is on key taylor only. if jose is only gonna note the whole shame i've got with in the north of the country, the situation became more complicated. in china, the communist had ceased power. so now who she mean had the support of a much bigger and more powerful neighbor. in response, the united states decided to support france. indo china was no longer a simple colonial conflict. it was a new front in the cold war. in october 1950. the fighting on the chinese border hits new levels of intensity.

the french army lost 5000 soldiers, but above all, they lost their sense of their own invincibility. have yet mean to control of the north of yet nom white chinese age now arrived. unhindered caught by the throat, the french government despatches most prestigious, general john de alotted, his destiny hero of the liberation of france. in world war 2, they called him king ashanti, and in january 1951, he swung into action. and the french army inflicted successive better defeats on the north vietnamese. in the thick jungle, the french used every means at their disposal. and that included a highly flammable petrol jelly. naples

a 3rd of the population supported continuing the war in order to preserve the empire. the french communists campaigned fiercely against what they called, quote, a dirty imperialist war. their slogan was not a man, not a penny for the war. in indo china at the ports, their cameras secretly filmed what no one wanted to see the coffins of growing numbers of french soldiers stocking up on the key side. the m p p. m and his pulse was one of the few to foresee the tragedy that lay ahead . he called for the start of negotiations. but the government remained blindly stubborn. the empire must not be sold off, and communism must be prevented from spreading. by the spring of 1951,

the number of troops sent to vietnam had grown to more than a 140000. the war continued regardless. oh, francis problems in indo china were married in north africa. in algeria, morocco and tanisha. people demanded more and more freedom, while the colonizers living there looked the other way. the whole problem is an excellent doesn't do that. i did actually couldn't yet do you moist claim, laurie kaylor, viva, aren't cio disney less? sure, initially to miss you, men initially tell her the bell. bell false keep it. i said, well we all will inform may will. milner. will he pity kitty's? it was in your proposal. i think the message ya interest as purely on it on the phone. all the ticklish listed above should look over the bottle. while the local colonizers averted their eyes, people's misery fed nationalism,

a new front had opened up over north africa. in early 1954, france froze, the catholic priest abbey pierre launched a major appeal for the homeless, torn between a domestic housing crisis and imperial conflict abroad. the french government needed to act decisively after 8 years embroidered in indo china, it sent in a new commander general on he never with a plan to strike a major blow against of yet mean his forces in stole themselves in the den, been food basin, a strategic position surrounded by mountains,
