12:03 pm
shelling side in the city it was okay. or to clean up operation. clearly they're getting used to this now. now the reason we've only seen for injuries hair is likely to be because of civil defense advice. but people not to stay in their bedrooms or in their lounge is that if you see the top of the building, they're like you see that glass blown in people on actually sleeping or staying in those buildings or actually sleeping inside the corridor. i'm. that's saving a lot of people like i say only 4 people injured visions hack. no, but he was killed. but the shelling took place around 8 in the morning. now whilst all of this was going on, there had been. busy number of other developments as well. british intelligence has said that on the ground the russian offensive has still what that means is the russians in our relying heavily on air strikes. missiles strikes, rocket strikes,

12:09 pm
ukrainian forces are still putting up resistance. let's talk about the diploma diplomatic efforts that are still going on. we can't forget, of course, that, that those efforts are going on on the sidelines of this, but they are moving incredibly slowly. that's exactly right. the russians are blaming ukraine for stalling the talks for not taking it seriously for trying to delay talks. ukrainian say it's impossible to have these negotiations as long as there is ongoing brutality being carried out by russian forces. we've seen these talks describe this confrontational as russia's position of its demands from ukraine, continued to be maxima list, asking ukraine to capitulate to all his demands defensive, as well as a political. but the one positive thing that we can say about these talks is that the talks are still happening. same, thank you very much. indeed. zane buster ave bringing us up to date from live or
12:10 pm
girls expected to return to school in afghanistan. and once they have the left disappointed money showed up for school for the 1st time in 7 months, only to be told to go home. the ministry of education has most schools for girls from grace 7 to 12, or remain closed until further notice. victoria digby reports oh, the day started so well for these girls in cobble as they returned to school for the 1st time in 7 months. i shook i'll humbling aloud. thank god, the taliban are also like the previous government. now i don't have any concern about what i have to wear or whether to go to school or not. my family has allowed me and thank god. now the taliban has also given us permission to go to school. we are very happy. oh, but a few hours later that sense of optimism had completely disappeared. the taliban leg government suddenly ordered most secondary schools for girls to close. students packed up their bags and headed home. it was all with the man and i was happy and
12:11 pm
excited when i found out i was going to school, i would be a hardly there for 30 minutes when they kicked us out and shut the door and left us hopeless for that. then they got by the therapy, it isn't fair that boys are allowed to go to schools and girls, aunt, what of girls done wrong? we want our schools to reopen, like before. girls in afghanistan have been waiting for months to attend school. the taliban pledge to provide them with access to an education after it's take over in august. but since then most girls have been banned from going to school after the 6th grade. taliban officials now say they need even more time to create gender segregated facilities. the taliban is been widely condemned for depriving women and girls of in education. the international community says the right to an education must be upheld if the taliban like government wants to receive much needed aid victoria gate and be al jazeera. okay, let's speak to soccer ball excise in london. she is an afghan politician and
12:12 pm
a journalist who was forced to flee last year. thanks very much indeed for being with us on ald 0 and what are the chances? do you think that these schools might be allowed to reopen permanently? i think it's very sad to see off to all those bands, which is the girls in afghanistan were been waiting for that day to schools where we reopened. and unfortunately, today was a very disappointment that they turned back their home without any results. it shows that don, among are not reliable, they could not fulfill their promises. and beside us that they are the ones that they are stopping the girls from the last order, which is girls and man, man and women must beach k did. so this is the order which is beach taliban right now are banding women from education. it's very disappointing. it's years how unreliable taliban are in the political arena. for those of us who don't understand what the grading system isn't within within afghans schools it says it's closing to
12:13 pm
grades $7.00 to $12.00. what kind of age group are we talking about? we are talking mostly about age, starting from 9 or 10 to 2018 or 17. it's demand on their children and dan no later than the year that they start, it means secondary and high schools are banned it for the girls. even the primary school, which is taliban chromos. it's not across the country. miss neff provinces, and districts day don't have girls primary schools. so it means that taliban are exactly the same as they was before. they are against girls to be gated there against women to be chaotic, even when they announced the universities to be open. meanwhile, they also noticed that the girls can not go anywhere they bound to right of movement without male company. ma hm. so this is like
12:14 pm
a kind of stake in current policy that taliban are holding. i want to ask you about that because much of the world in particular, the countries who are withholding a lot of funding for of town and stuff are watching what the taliban does very closely. i mean, to those of us on the outside this seems counter productive. what do you think the taliban is trying to achieve by doing this? i think it's, it's very hard to understand what exactly does on life to achieve. because for one hand, they are seeking international work admission without internet legitimacy. nathan has done because the defacto government of taliban are not a legitimate government, a demean time. the also delivering a very big promise says, globally international community where meanwhile, and i've got to start there and limit ties inc. just the simple basic rights of people. so it means taliban are saying something, but their action can speak louder. unfortunately, right now today the lack of free media also not gone. his son on the biggest
12:15 pm
obstacle, we don't know what exactly going on their charter, bon rule and regime. people around a son in the way they are suffering him, but still no doubt that taliban can not be a reliable partner. not far out on a star people or not for the international community. despite of what they are saying, what they're doing is more loud. i mentioned before that you are a politician, not a journalist and you flight of canister. and i think 2021 talkers through the circumstances that forced you to leave and tell us a little bit about what life is like for women and girls in afghanistan at the moment. as you understand it. i may lift my country by force physically, but still my thought, my sole activities going on their system. the activism wasn't been stop. i was been forced to leave my country because taliban was often me and 2014 also. they met suicide, attacked on media 10th, but god, miracle i was been survived because i was being all said,
12:16 pm
having schools under 1st solid on for almost 4 years. but to right now it's to be honest. it's an i'm the only one millions of father afghans would like to leave the country. just based save suitable because taliban don't like women. they don't like human rights. they don't like the afghanistan to move forward. and they are often every single affair. if you see the women's rights activists, they read, they put to women and presence, the missing women's cell. and the target killing and organized crime is going to increase. so that was the reason i left afghanistan for far because taliban was after me. otherwise, i never had desired to leave my country and all those progress and find that i may and in the last 24 years. but that was not myself. that was not my decision. that was the circumstances. that was the situation made me to take that decision just because of symbolism. i don't want taliban to ting. women are soft target. the
12:17 pm
taliban today they are claiming they put on need the u. s. and may to but to the in front of girls and i've gone on and women of gulf gown, hassan the only force that they can challenge the taliban. they can not even say a sentence rather than their bad behavior and brutal ways that they are showing sugar box. so we appreciate you being with us and i'll just, you know, mom, thank you very much indeed for your time. thank you. still hadn't al jazeera a baby's abducted organs sold and women slaves were gonna take you inside a racks, organized coin, guys. are mexicans working a broader help in the country out of its economic procession? ah,
