they have even targeted the port in the coastal city of latha kia and damascus airport. in fact, the runway said damascus airport, we're deemed unusual, unusable for weeks. now israel does not hide the fact that it's goal in syria is to prevent it from entrenching itself, apparently. and it won't tolerate any iranian presence on the border. and it also wants to stop any weapons, transfer sophisticated weapons to has been neighboring 11 on this. all comes and it's heightening tensions in the region between iran and israel. such attacks usually are confined but the risk of further escalation is there for israel is really that the biggest goal is to prevent iran from creating a base on its border in syria. the way that it's been on has been law now has a very strong position how celebrations are being held across india to mark 75

years of independence. prime minister and ramadi has addressed the nation from the historic read forth in new delhi. large crowds are also expected as a flag ceremony at the atari walk, a border with pakistan. the end of british rule in 1947 resulted in the petition of pakistan from india. widespread violence and the displacement of more than 15000000 people. while that's now speak to poverty metal, she is across this forest in new delhi. pardon me? i see moody's been making more pledges and marking this independence day to day yes, people across the country are celebrating this major milestone. 75 years of independence . not today, morning prime minister mo, the hoisted the flag and also addressed the nation. and in his speech, he paid tribute to freedom fighters who made today possible. he also spoke about issues of the country needs to address, including corruption and gender inequality. he also pledged to make india

a developed country in 25 years. now, one of the major themes that has emerged during the course of the independence day celebrations is this idea of letting go off the colonial past. and his page, the prime minister talked about how people from india should be proud of being engine. and that's something that even exports have pointed out. they see that despite the many challenges in yet has emerged as a political and economic success story. i mean, it is the largest democracy, democracy, that functions and it is a major economy. and today people are celebrating that the hosting flags are holding rallies. they're posting pictures with the flag on social media. it's all about taking pride in what has been achieved with optimism of what is yet to come. well, this is also a marker as partition. it was such

a decisive moment for south asia and now it's a very different region, 3 quarters of a century on yes, it is, is on the reminder of one of the darkest chapters in the subcontinent history, the independence and partition of india and pakistan was accompanied by horrifying violence, i mean while crossing borders a case a 1000000 people were killed and in all at least 15000000 people have been displaced on it's a legacy that in deals in relation between india and pakistan, remain tense. one of the, those sticking points is over kush me, kush me, is claimed in food by both india and pakistan, but governed by both nations, only in boss. and it's an issue that far from resolved. now there have been attempts to find common ground to celebrate,

to shed history unshared culture. and the fact that trade between the 2 countries is worth billions of dollars. but the colonial legacy of partition and everything that followed between the 2 countries still influences south asia. probably miss all the following news celebrations and commemorations for us in new delhi. thank you. passing north korean state media reporting that russian president, that person is planning to expand time between moscow and young young fruit and reported the road to north korea. can john that a closer relationship would be in both countries, interest that you need is exchange letters on the $77.00 anniversary of the korean peninsula. liberation from japanese rule. both north and south korea. mocking that anniversary japan build all of korea from 1910 until the end of world war 2. in 1945. it was followed 5 years later by the korean war that's left the country

divided. ever since public pride and sol has more on presentations, proposals. that is an interesting letter coming at an interesting time. russian president vladimir putin talking about expanding bilateral relations about areas of common interest about north korea and russia. it seems working together to improve the security situation. he says, in northeast asia, you know it's, it's interesting that both of these leaders of faith, relative isolation in the international community. kim jung guns, of course, has been long standing of let me put in. it's been far more recent, but no less consequential. so there does seem almost an inevitability about the to lead is being drawn closer relationship. and it does come at this interesting time being on the korean peninsula. this liberation day, it is being celebrated in that the 2 careers were waiting to see from north korea just what sort of events they will be staging to mark this day. the north korean

state run television is carrying special programming. we are waiting to see whether it's going to be marked by any mass event or march or military ad display. of course, north korea would seem to have not to celebrate this year having just overcome the common enemy of coby 19. it didn't report his 1st cases of what you for mystic recalls, fever until mid may or since then there's been a rapid expansion of the sickness through the population. millions of people it seems becoming infected, but very recently announcing that it has been defeated and also using that opportunity to blame south korea for the initial outbreak for introducing cove it into the north which has done nothing to help frosty relations across the dmc was another anniversary now and it's been one year since the taliban. we took control of us on the economy has collapsed. women have been stripped their rights and millions of people don't know where their next meal is coming from. that's bring in some of the job aid he joins me now live from cobble as

a whole nation. they grappling with broken promises. when the says, yeah, it's a very different to cobble a hair on august the 15th from what it was a year ago, where the recedes of chaos and confusion as taliban fighters took over this city. i the request of people who were left behind as the rest and back up and claps. it's been a year which been fort with challenges the economy which was built on foreign aid has all but collapsed to the taliban. are adamant that they are going to be making money. they are going to be able to provide jobs, but according to them and i quote, it is under basic a growing problems that they are facing. and they do not seem to appreciate the kind of challenge that this country faces there because of are not just restrictions and finances, but on basic rights such as the girl's ability to go to school amongst our colleagues. we've been hearing stories from girls who have not been able to go to school and are going through a lot of former at their homes,

have been crying and trying to find avenues to look forward to the future. on the other hand, there has been some progress in terms of security in this country we're able to roam about freely at night. there, there have been some ice and attacks, but by and large it is. i'm not better than what it used to be a year ago. so a year are full of challenges a year where the taliban had the chance to prove to the afghan people that they are sincere and they are going to make a difference. and here's how we kept it in the circle at resound in england, his son ah, a musician and driver after his lived in refugee camps in his childhood. he's among the more than 3000000 people displaced in of an honest on market among arrows already at ho before was good, but now life just passes us by before we could find some food for our children. but the change in government means there is no work now. a year ago, tens of thousands of people headed for the borders. as provinces fell to the

taliban, many in cobbled rush to the airport. as the rest and back government collapsed. after taking refuge abroad a shotgun, he denied that he escaped the suitcases full of cash. more than 100000 people left during the withdrawal of foreign forces. the economy collapsed and the u. s. rows billions of dollars of foreign reserves. the us need to alliance spent an estimated $300000000.00 a day every day for 2 decades. but basic such as roads, schools, hospitals, are either non existent or in poor shape. since the taliban took over, that money has stopped coming in. and thousands of professionals have less. human rights watch has accused the taliban of a long list of abuses, restricting the rights of women and girls, suppressing media feed him and detaining, torturing and executing critics, and perceived opponents all allegations. the taliban denies. moreover, from covenant activities in some other areas, things a good we're trying to improve. but we should also take into account the problems

of the corona virus, the suspension of foreign aid, the freezing of money, the problems in banking drought. all of these together had increased the problems for the people of our county. stan, for those who left life not easy, more than half the 20000 enough, gone to reach the u. k. are still in temporary accommodation, the lack of prospects abroad, and many 5th, harrison and the threat of detention cut over the hump. true. i lost everything, including my restaurant, atlanta go to europe, so i went to turkey. unfortunately, they captured us and deported us to iran. thank god, now we are in our home and i will never go anywhere else. in a year, security is improved, but poverty and desperation have increased by the taliban. 6 international recognition. there are some concessions. it seems unwilling to make so we've been going around not just in cobbled, but eastern and know that have been assigned as well. and what is common in all of

those places is the desperation of the people. people trying to make a living, people trying to feed their children, people trying to look forward to in the future. there has been some progress, not just insecurity, but in the binding sector where there have been some jobs. the transportation to many areas which are under the taliban. people have been able to now sell fruits and vegetables that they've been growing. but by and large, this country which was poor, has become porter. it was, life was difficult and it has just become more difficult. dollar button insist that they are going to resurrect this economy based on internal revenues. but they are asking for international has international health that will only come in if they're willing to concede to many of the promises that they made, including those of them. all right, and go and some of them just a that on the ground for us in couple. thank you. still ahead here on out there. waiting for a reunion that may never come from any search for those still missing because of the war in crane.
