12:04 am
not encouraging masks, encouraging mass gatherings. so this inquiry was entered the house of brazilians every night. they were watching it live on tv. so in that sense, it was very important and it was also a response from an institution to what the president was doing or not doing. in this case, his emissions and regarding the pandemic, but both sonata still has, ah breath to go ahead for, for the his re election. and in terms of the korean of ours generally, what, what public opinion like on that subject? well, there are in general, well not to now to day. as a matter of fact, 50 percent of the resilience our population has been vaccinated. many people are aware they're there, they want to be vaccinated era, they're aware of the importance of vaccines. now, on the other hand, ball,

12:09 am
protection of civilians taken. honda has the latest rare attack in the heart of the syrian capital. a military bus was the target. many were killed and injured. when, according to stake, media to explosive devices went off, the bus was at a transport point under the east bridge and damascus. these kinds of attacks haven't happened in years, particularly since 2018 when government forces cleared the armed opposition strongholds around the city. though there has been no claim of responsibility, but the syrian regime is facing threats on multiple fronts. i remain to the end of the declared kenneth in syria and early 2019 by the joint forces of the us. and as it did not mean the end of the year had this organization, which was the threats and the thicker, the challenge, especially after the change of status of the stomach state, which is largely focused on the site attack,
12:10 am
are not long after the explosion syrian government troops heavily shell the town in the northern provinces lib civilians were killed or injured in a re how many of them children who were on their way to school. the area is regularly targeted by government troops despite last year cease fire agreement. but wednesday shelling is being seen as retaliation to the damascus attack. this attack will play into the hands of the regime by using it as another evidence that he's facing at some sort of terrorism actions. and that he is trying to blame the opposition, particularly in lip for, for the attack in an attempt actually to framed opposition. much of northern syria is under rebel control. the country remain divided along the front lines and millions remain displaced. and while some host countries are starting to promote
12:11 am
their return, human rights groups are again warning. it is not safe in the absence of certain conditions. in a report, human rights watch said it interviewed 65 return knees or family members. a documented 21 cases of arrest, an arbitrary detention 13 cases of torture. 3 kidnappings, 5 extra judicial killings. 17 enforced disappearances. and one case of reported sexual violence. this includes people that had clearances, supposedly before they return, they assurances that they would not be persecuted or reconciliation agreements as they are called and were given documents to say that they would not be hunted down . but in fact, that's exactly what happened to people. president bashar assad forces now control much of syria after military help from his allies, russia and iran help tip the balance of power in his favor. but wednesdays
12:12 am
explosion was a serious security breach, and it shows once again, syria is still in crisis that other al jazeera. a taliban says it needs international recognition to ease afghanistan's humanitarian crisis. representatives from the group were speaking in moscow after an international conference with regional powers including china, india and pakistan. comes after russia said the group would have to uphold a basic standard of human rights to get recognition. a taliban also promised to address ongoing security concerns. we had very good meeting all the participating countries. they supported unfreeze in the assets of one of san central bank, which is actually the assets of the avalon people. and it should not be connected with political issues. and also all the but the bidding countries this supported close engagement with the new islamic government and of honest on and overall
12:13 am
the stomach emitted appreciate the effort and the positions mostly expressed by different countries. and today's meeting, charlotte bennett has nations from the afghan capital cobble, primarily, they want the us who wasn't clear to day, they want the you waste to release $9000000000.00, which is being housed by america, which is afghan reserve bank funds. so they want that release, they say they want to use it for reconstruction, but guess they did talk a lot about a they said all the countries in these talks in moscow today are we're all on the same page when it came to aid and they said that they supported the taliban, and the taliban said they were very appreciative of that. but the main takeaway was, there was a call to action if you will, where these country said look, we're going to contribute to monetary and aid. and we're talking china, iran, india, pakistan, central asian countries. but we also want the you, when to convene during a conference. so it's more of
12:14 am
a global effort. so they're really pushing for the way to kind of take the lead on this and keep channeling and fun and pushing as much humanitarian aid into afghanistan as possible because it really is a dire situation here and winter is on the horizon. now. the taliban also under quite a lot appreciate today when it came to suppressing court terrorism, the russians was saying that were very worried about groups like i sal ah, staging attacks inside afghanistan against neighbors against rusher itself. and so they were really looking for reassurance is from the taliban that they can essentially keep a lid on groups like iceland. i so has been a has kind of be quite effective by having 3 quite large attacks since the taliban took over and various parts of afghanistan. so the taliban had to really reassure some of the neighbors and countries like russia that they can keep control of groups. like i said earlier, i spoke to our men, rashid, and also who's written extensively about the taliban in afghanistan. he says the
12:15 am
countries in regional watching developments closely there is a big play going on at the moment between all the neighboring states of, of sun. and the most important of which is, the plane between russia and china. russia does not want to give china the complete edge of the future of the future. we're going to some of the chinese have been promising. hey, the money and infrastructure development. the russians also want to protect central asia from military groups who are still living in a kind of quiet operating quite freely. and at the same time they, they, they want to have a better position than to west some countries and the united states, the world, the taliban. so they promise you monetary and a they're good, but they're not going to recognize the thought of on until they say the thought on make. and i think it includes minority women and
12:16 am
the politic but they have no money at the moment. and money about $9000000000.00 of the state are all in american bank in the web. and the, nobody's going to open those bags until until the tyler bond had sent to the government. i mean, do you think we talked about it in any way shifting position? are they going to move at all on, on those issues that you mentioned? and unfortunately, there's no sign of it yet. and you know, the cabinet includes a loaner lod line from the, from the 1990 s. and the great fear that the so far, at least of them given into anything they're not accepting western demand for they don't seem to be really accepting. even the demand made at the conference. and what about i saw in a moment, we've seen several tax recently. how much of a threshold
12:17 am
a television? well, is the atomic stage chorus on which is the name they go on day in. i've got it on me. but i have some really devastating suicide by the minority group on those who got me and they be talking school the really target really frightening the population of the taliban don't seem job a grip on this yet, even though they are pledging that their security is very efficient and that they're doing their best, but they don't seem to crap open where all the extremists id, which countries do you think might break ranks with others and recognize the taliban. and what would the effect be if they did that?
12:18 am
well, i think that, you know, the 3 or 4 countries will banded together about recognition back in russia, china, iran. and then what day i'm say in boss statements, but not meeting well they're there and thought statements is that they would like to recognize the bond as a block of countries, rather than do it one by one. and but you know, we, but they don't think that on a yet ready, and don't fulfill the wishes that conference demanded. they really haven't made any move either towards improving the state of the dublin and bringing in the minorities or it creaking women, allowing women to go back to work at all levels. women teacher, but bad be needed in the school. maybe after this month go meeting the fact the potential allies like done in iran and cut and
12:19 am
the russians. they're all involved and trying to persuade the chinese, the taliban. maybe this will create some dead. but so far we haven't seen anything un is reducing its presence to drive by more than half of the government's blockade continues to harm humanitarian aid. if it's in a region, the reduction comes as, as trying to hit the capital of to grow on wednesday. the 2nd time this week, the government said it was targeting facilities to make and repair weapons, which, especially if the rival to grow and force is denied. at least 3 people were killed in strikes on mckelly. on monday, at the completion, the north of the country has been going on for nearly a year now, and thousands of people have been killed. during this time, we will get out. she says it's difficult to confirm details independently because of a communication blackouts in the region. from the images were able to watch but cannot verify. it seems to be a heavy target and there will be many,
12:20 am
many victims from this later strike. so happened then. they took the government on monday, denied it, and they confirmed this, but the target, this head is communication equipment to try to perhaps slow down the success that we've been watching left in terms of capturing towns outside of to go into the horror and the party from the get go, the ciocca and government has been clear in terms of pointing their fingers against that. they've been saying that the money that has been stealing resources and using it or to perhaps provide support to their soldiers. that's the persuasive of getting to the part the t p i left, they would say the opposite. so this is a conflict of bait in a challenging position to verify what's being said. because we have no access of the state of a man accused of one of the worst mass school shootings in us. history has pleaded
