2:03 am
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 barry, 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 assad below 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 a more inclusive government. and the protection of women's rights and those of

minorities agencies, a warning 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 an unpredictable security situation with new dynamics at play. stephanie decker, al jazeera, cobble shelter condoms. joiners live from washington, dc. he's a former advisor to nato's senior civilian representative in afghanistan. good, happy with us on al jazeera. as we heard from stephanie's report there, the have of course, been attacks in other parts of the country. this is the 1st one in the south. what do we read into them? unfortunately, that is a trend. now it has totters from capital city of cobble and august. then it went to not enough amazon to conduct and now to the south in kandahar and it's targeting all major cities in the target is unfortunately very clear. it is most the
2:05 am
minority she had who i would call this as a silent, generous side of a race or a religious belief. this has been systematic, pragmatic, as well as i would say, very organized. and i believe because if you look at the trend of the attacks, and if you look at the, you know, the in certain groups and tourist groups in up on a, sam, this is clearly shows that this is i cell or isis or ice cross on which claims to be the part of course on a branch apply. so in this sense, a very strong signal to taliban and to the neighboring countries and overall to the community on the sun is not safe as it was expected. and also it is a big challenge for parliament ahead of that is to tell about, do you think able to respond effectively to these attacks given the fact that it's trying to run a country. and it's also trying to do with the onset of a humanitarian crisis. unfortunately,
2:06 am
you know taliban are not able to respond to this and they're not prepared even to respond to such attacks. these are catastrophe. attacks in or each attack has had more than dozens of casualties. or at least, you know, around 40 to 50 people. and also, let's not forget that these are not who, who an insurgency when we talk about taliban insurgence, or we've talked about heck, insurgents in the past in afghanistan, news went home. and so just i sense is designated global terrorist group. so this means parliament by themselves alone, cannot fight this phenomenon specifically, or specially while they do not have the capacity within them. of course they do have heavy arms. they do have a lot of, you know, nations and everything left behind from us, from african nation security forces and nature for them. but they do not have this when trained troops to counter such attack. and so far, caliber have been to even,
2:07 am
you know, diffuse or encounter one of these attacks. all 3 major attacks have been successful in terms of the isis or whoever has planning there. and let's not forget that the i says is also considered a national security threat for the united states as well. this sends a signal to the global community that hey afghanistan, that once again is going to be a safe haven for rober tourist. and if i can a standard one second available to the safe haven, nobody need that in the region country, or maybe in country or even united signal its allies were not the same. so more international community. hoster engage coll about how you engage has to cooperate, coordinate with a global community and fight this terrorist who that they part of the agreement. of course that was said in here in doha, between the taliban and the us was that the taliban is going to guarantee that kind of stand wouldn't be used as a base for on groups if i so k, assuming that that's who is responsible for these attacks and certainly claiming
2:08 am
that, that is the case gets more confidence. is there a riskier thing that we're going to see that confidence and possibly violence spilling out over the borders and into other countries. all of them has repeatedly allied about their capability as well as about the trip of isis. they're playing down, you know, they repeatedly say the dice. i says, or dias isn't a tra tra gunderson but we see the train for less than 3 months about an hour g major attacks across major cities. and you know, god forbid, if this happens, if this continues at massive level, then i think that would be a disaster in parliament, has clearly failed. and that agreement and commitment. and what was in doha or assurance united say that's global alliance. that on a son will not be a safe haven for terrorists. this clearly shows that this terrorist move the treats trucks the security of europeans, americans and even, you know,
2:09 am
in the greater middle east, all the muslim community. this still exist in, it has been expanded. let's not forget, you know, the people that they have targeted. it's all of the people have been talking to the muslim and even the target people within the mass. so they would have no mercy on people who are not even within their religion. they claim to be most then that has to be tested, but let's not forget the taliban. couldn't, you know, i, i couldn't actually fulfill the promise was in the do have human. and i'm afraid if the international community does not engage or the how about do not allow international community this global terrorist organizational, well, for every single one, especially the region countries and excuse me, countries where they have more access. and these countries has more vulnerability in terms of you know, their population really good to get your thoughts on the 2nd on we appreciate you joining us now to 0. so thank you very much. and thank you for having me. a former
