explosions inside the mosque. kandahar is afghanistan, 2nd largest city, and considered the birthplace of the taliban. al jazeera stephanie decker reports now from the capital cobble. ah, the explosions ripped through friday. prayers. reports suggest several suicide bombers were involved in the attack. this alamo, there were 3 people. the 1st one entered and killed the gate keeper, and the remaining to the end of the mosque, they were armed. they opened fire 1st and then all 3 of them detonated themselves together. many of my family members were mounted there than i. wow. ambulance crews rushed to the scene. casualties mounted. this is the largest shia mosque in kandahar the province is taliban heartland in the south of canister on the groups birthplace and stronghold. and this significantly, the 1st attack of its kind here. it's a 2nd on

a sheer place of worship. in 7 days. last friday, she a mosque was attacked in conduce in the north east of the country. more than 60 people were killed as they to attended friday prayers. and i so suicide bomber entered and detonated his explosive. among them appears to have been an increase in pace and your graphical scope. and attacks carried out by iceland, afghanistan over the last couple of weeks or the taliban is always said that it is the only group able to maintain security across the country. but that premise is now being challenged. and despite the taliban saying it had the idle threat under control just a few days ago, the interior ministry giving a press conference asking taliban fighters to be cautious among their ranks, hinting at concerns of infiltration, the holiday de la de la bar. so that if somebody is found in any of army units linked to i, so let it be known that the unit commander will be interrogated and the unit will be dissolved. hasn't been. it's 2 months since the taliban took control of the country, having to adapt from insurgency to governance. and despite

a diplomatic push abroad, millions of dollars of much needed international donor money are still being withheld. as the international community demands more inclusive government and the protection of women's rights and those of minorities agencies, morning of the humanitarian catastrophe. as the country is running severely low on cash, salaries haven't been paid in months. millions of people don't have enough to eat and winter is coming. all this compounded by non predictable security situation with new dynamics at play. stephanie decor 0 couple. so more on this, let speak to charlie winter director of research at extract company, which analyzes data and communications related to violent extremism. so have been a number of deadly bombings across afghanistan, particularly in the north and east of the country. how significant is the location of today's attack in the taliban? southern strong?

it's very significant. i mean, it's important to note that k p hasn't claimed responsibility for this attack yet, but based on data from the last few weeks, based on prevailing trends over the course of the last year. and based on rhetoric from i itself, it seems very, very likely that it is the culprit behind this attack. and if it is the case, then this time it's ever been operationally active in this part of afghanistan. it's, i have kept trying to demonstrate that no matter what the taliban says, no much it's rhetoric has 6 carrots instability. it doesn't have a hold on security in the country and the big promise of security that it's been saying it would be able to bring traffic on a stand for years. it's trying now to demonstrate that that's a false promise. how has i asked, can't be managed to do it to penetrate this, to penetrate kandahar in this way with multiple explosions in inside of this small square families would have gathered for that price. what does that suggest about

the resources that disposal and recruitment efforts? well, it's clear that there's a network that spans across afghanistan far away from just the eastern reaches of the country. now go, how can our web they've been that kind of historical hope that is support for i s k p in previous years. and what's happened over the last few weeks as finances picked up in that part of the country, the taliban has put a lot of its security focus is really prioritized manga. and his rounded up a lot of scientists and people accused of being associated with ice k, p in that particular part of the country. so difficult for them to operate that. but i think what we're going to see moving forward is a displacement of the i s k p threat. whether that's to the north had of had about the can do the attack last week just now and obviously to day kandahar. but we know

that there's also a network over inherit in the west of the country as well. so i think that what likely we'll see is a displacement away from just the eastern coast on where i escape has been focused of light. does that mean the taliban? oh they capable then of suppressing the threat from i s k p particularly if it if when they crack down on the group in one area they just sort of metastasize and spread out to these decentralized networks that just go elsewhere. well, i mean that's the whole point for it. i think these networks are already in these places, but i s k p. the whole purpose of the 40 for taxes carried out taliban in the last couple of weeks alone. that's all about trying to draw the taliban into a situation where it's reacting indiscriminately and driving a wedge between it and the population that i've k p is trying to direct support from. so i think the network has always been spread across africa. histone there

was a pause of about 8 weeks where i s k p activity completely dropped off around the capture couple in mid august. and during that pause b. c. i, system affiliates do this elsewhere as well. whether and serial, where iraq or west africa, there's a period of like an operational refit, where they figure out what the next steps are. they lay the ground and then prepare for the next phase. just to be clear about this, i've kind of stones, has our share have been targeted for decades, they would not protected under the previous us back government in the country. are they even more vulnerable now? what i mean if that had been con, keep a handle on the threat from i s k p then no, no. but the taliban, at least at an official rhetoric level, has been very clear that it wants to look out for the rights and security of shared muslims in afghanistan. that's been quite loss of propaganda from the taliban side

of things to that particular and. and we've already had a few statements from the public officials of the taliban condemning the attack and saying that they are committed to supporting ship security in afghanistan. and not just a rhetorical level. charlie went her director of research extract. thank you very much. i keep it with the news, our life from london, much more still ad for you on the program. remembering and assassinated president and became a foss over warden 30 years on at justice. still has to wait and you, iron curtain to block off eastern europe. poland gets tougher on my grants, trying to enter the e u barrier could soon get physical and his force an unhappy liverpool manager takes aim at football, governing bodies for not doing enough of play a welfare ah,

a police officer to be in the room if that's what it's going to take. it is a much cherished tradition. the practice of face to face meetings between citizens and their elected representatives based on openness and trust. now, once again called into question by the deliberate killing of a member of parliament, joan a whole al jazeera london, well nadine baba joins us live now from lee on see and, and it in a more information about the suspect and the direction the investigation will now take to be honest, no marian, as you heard, as it's police, have confirmed the counter terrorism command and out in charge of the investigation . and it's an investigation into that 25 year old man who was arrested earlier on a on suspicion of murder. they haven't told us anything more. busy about him, but that fact that it's being handled by counter terrorism command indicates that

there will be looking into whether this individual had links to any extremist groups. whether he had a terrorist motive. they have said so far that they're keeping an open mind. they've also confirmed that they are not looking for any one else, then they don't believe any one else was involved in this attack. here in leon, see people have been really shocked and really saddened because david amos was somebody who was genuinely popular with people who voted for his conservative party and who didn't. we've spoken to people on both in both of those categories were spoken to business owners who say that he was often seen around or he'd pop tend to say hello and so on. and he was also very well respected by his parliamentary colleagues as you are hearing maurice johnson, the prime minister, paying tribute, the leader of the opposition kiss, darma saying similar things we've heard or even from the u. s. secretary of state

brown in people are seeing red getaway. a last lesson while here. so i'll know what to do. i don't know for the 2nd time in recent memory, the state of michigan is taking years to clean up lead, tainted drinking water in a majority. black city, when a visitor complained about the water. reverend edward pinkney had it test it and found high levels of lead. he says there's a reason it's taking so long to remove it. environmental recess just so. what if, if, if oh, a white woman would count was, oh, will you see he see her on a camel with a little baby? she's cry and tell him that the little destroying her baby. there was a, was sent out. the army of fina will be here. all the pentagon would be everybody would be here and they are resolved as pain in less than 6 months. but by. 5 being a black city is a whole different story. 2 years after the majority, black town of flint resolved
