security. we went round a couple of the ministries to day and the security procedures were tighter and different than before. also a message from the interior ministry a couple of days ago, asking the taliban to look inward at at potential any ice will fighters that could be infiltrated among them. so what was beforehand this? the answer you'd usually get from the taliban when you asked them how much of a threat iceland, afghanistan was, they would play it down. now, it seems that they are starting to take it seriously. certainly these 2 groups have been fighting each other for quite a long time. but now the taliban is having to govern the country and having to prevent the kinds of attacks that they used to carry out themselves. and we are just getting a revised deaf toll. now from the kandahar mosque bombing on friday, security and medical sources of told al jazeera that the number of dead has now reason to 65. the united states has a offered compensation to the family of people killed in

companies with great lobbying power or taking advantage of that other smaller company se staying afloat stuff as the focus on the few beauty and health products so far and loud nationally. a low promotional cost of producing and maintaining medical cannabis is extremely high for small companies. they can't depend on a national market. if columbia would also bad on developing a dynamic, internal industry and families that have invested their savings, and this might have a chance to go. there is irony in the fact that a country so often associated with drug trafficking could become a power house of exporting drugs. legally, the risk though is that this new boom will remain in few powerful hands. allison that i get the i just the fisco now 24 hippos, who run free on the estate of a former colombian drug lord have been sterilized. as the authorities try to stop the group. getting larger, pablo escobar imported one male and 3 females from
