a suicide bomber blew himself up at a construction company near the city's airport armed men are then said to have stormed the building an exchange of fire with security forces is reportedly all in going or joined by t.v. is a journalist based in kabul ali what more can you tell us about the bombing and this assault so so far we know that three employees of the construction company have been killed and the six have been injured and there are reports that the five attackers have been killed and attacked is that overages waiting for official word from the ministry of interior the ministry of defense to fully concerned that but it seems as if it wasn't a particularly long attack and not wait luckily. about this site attack so that you know about airport is actually outside of the city it's on the road to detroit on
8:03 am
the route route that you're from crossing which leads to the durand line and eventually into foxed on. and it's not really a civilian airport it's militarized airport it's not meant for commercial or civilian flights but because the employees of the construction company are civilians in which it has obviously led to civilian deaths always stay with this because that attack enjoy about it comes as a talks between the taliban and u.s. officials aimed at ending the violence in the country are continuing in qatar and the taliban have launched a charm offensive it seems to try to win over the international community and its former foes. malawi calum again once wielded enormous power he led the enforcement of taliban regulations during their rule of afghanistan from one thousand nine hundred six to two thousand and one now he's
8:04 am
hoping for a comeback as the taliban and the us hold peace talks after years of guerrilla warfare the taliban want to be in charge again calum again says that's long overdue . afghans want to live in the shari'a law again about how a holy war wasn't in vain that. all afghans want to shari'a law over again not just the holy warriors from the taliban. afghanistan under taliban rule movie theaters destroyed films burnt everything considered western was strictly forbidden men were forbidden from shaving their beards women were forced to wear burkas infractions were met with severe punishment prison or death by stoning kalam are doing today has a different spin on this brutal oppression. we never punished anyone better than
8:05 am
those people advice and if we threatened anyone because he didn't have a big it wasn't because we wanted to be the one of god's commandments for men as covering up for women. who want to be a law must accept these rules. afghanistan is a conservative islamic society but the country has changed in recent years more than half the population is under the age of eighteen most young afghans want the war to end but they reject the idea of others telling them how to live their lives . at least there isn't censorship of the internet not yet anyway. i'm afraid if a taliban it's not just the internet we would lose all of our freedoms. the taliban present themselves as more moderate than before malawi calum again appears on talk shows to promote his interpretation of islam but western analysts consider this a charm offensive not
8:06 am
a sign of long term change that is the individual vital to secure individual and democratic rights this is doubtful with the taliban they haven't presented any clear ideas about how they see the future of afghanistan. compromises are inevitable to end the war with the taliban these are likely to come at a high price let's go back to journalist latif in kabul eliot the u.s. is negotiating with the taliban even though secretary of state might this week called the taliban terrorists how do ordinary people in afghanistan feel about negotiating with the taliban. i mean a thing is the ordinary person wants peace there's a very small majority minority people who may be anti peace at this moment but everyone wants this war to end because everyone has seen that the very real human
8:07 am
cost of this war the biggest problem with these negotiations is that there is no up on president other than that all of what the negotiations are between the taliban and the united states which is exactly what the taliban has one thousand and once you know the trump administration has sent. as their representative to doha but he's not there as an eye on he's there as a u.s. representative you know you have to remember that under the bush administration he was u.s. ambassador to afghanistan also later to iraq so there's really no indication that he is there to represent anything having to do with the people of afghanistan or the government of the on his son he's literally just there for washington the afghan government itself as you pointed out they're not present at the talks in doha all what does it say about washington's expectations for the taliban in afghanistan after a u.s. withdrawal. i think the u.s.
8:08 am
has no other expectations i think they're only expectation that they've made very clear is that the taliban wouldn't allow a lot of sun to be used for attacks on u.s. soil or any of their allies but the truth is that never really happened since two thousand and one and the taliban were not directly involved in that attack anyways the majority of those attackers came from saudi arabia. does not exist at the level that it used to at that time so their expectations out of the taliban are very little having to do with the country itself and with the people that they would somehow be joining now there's no guarantee that they would take over the government but when a peace deal is struck as we've seen with previous warlords you know who now serve in vice presidential running for president who are ran for president the past two or parliamentarians and and ministers and things like that they will get a chance to to join the government in some way or another but as far as it's being
8:09 am
told right now the u.s. has no real expectations of how they will deal with that how the taliban will deal with up on people once they come in back into the fold if the taliban regain control in afghanistan what impact will that have on people's lives on women's rights and education for example. the thing is no one knows i mean because we really don't know what is the i can't stress this enough we really don't know is being negotiated we don't know it was on my father has handed over the keys to the presidential palace of the taleban and we're just waiting for his announcement so we don't know how involved they could be possibly in a government right away there are chances that they would stand for election things like that but in terms of an immediate government we have no idea what their role would be and the biggest fear for people is that do the taliban realize that it's not one thousand nine hundred six anymore because when they came into power in one thousand nine hundred sixty was a very specific window of time in afghanistan coming out of a civil war coming out of soviet occupation where people were desperate for for
8:10 am
a civil war that that that partition kabul that that made it into ethnic ghettos that that that had sought hundreds of thousands hundreds if not thousands of rockets being launched every day throughout the city killing civilians and rape and kidnapping and all of these other abuses you know that's what led to the taliban coming to power that doesn't exist anymore and the fact is that the people of afghanistan are not willing to even quote unquote temper rarely give up their rights for some semblance of order so this is the message that needs to be conveyed to the taliban and hopefully my follies of who is the only other person i'm just talking to them is making sure that they know this. thank you very much for your insights journalist ali t.v. there in kabul. now moving on to some other stories making headlines around the world today venezuela's president nicolas maduro has vowed to crush what he's condemned as a crazed minority seeking to remove him from power he's pressing his supporters to

this site does this show the tone yang is not keeping its word. it did certainly raise a lot of eyebrows especially as you said coming right after trump failed to reach an agreement with kim at their summit in noise. analysts we talked to however are somewhat cautious because they do know that this is not intercontinental ballistic missile site it is not been used to launch military missiles that could potentially reach the united states before work that being said it has played a major role in north korea's development of these long range missiles and any kind of tests there could potentially pour pito of future talks well let's talk about this news does come on the back of the failed summit between the u.s. and north korean leaders is this revelation another setback for negotiations on denuclearizing the korean peninsula. u.s.

secretary of state might pump aoe it said on monday he was hoping to send a team of negotiators back to pyongyang to try to restart talks with north korea i ever that has not been confirmed and these developments will certainly pose a challenge for those negotiations it also comes as u.s. secretary or u.s. national security adviser. also said that the united states could in fact increase sanctions if north korea does not get rid of its nuclear weapons and so all of this sets the stage for sometimes negotiate. josh thanks so much josh smith reuters correspondent in seoul south korea. fears are growing about human rights in china after it emerged that the government has begun penalizing citizens who engage in anti social behavior some twenty three million people have been blocked from buying plane or train tickets for offenses such as
