white house despite his election to feed cardio set. and this is the longest. so for among the more than $1100.00 cases opened against those involved in the 2021 attack, dw is janelle, dom alone in washington, told us more about the court's decision. or indeed, as he pointed out, this is the highest a sentence handed out so far in connection to the january 6 cases. last week we saw 4 of his proud boy colleagues received sentences from between 10 to 18 years. and that those sentences were already considered quite severe. so android cafeteria was handed the harshest sentence so far, given his leadership role among the proud boys. and also among the riots who have also pointed out that his case is interesting because he wasn't even there that day . he was arrested a few days prior and bad from being then in washington dc. but however, he was

a very vocal in his support for the writers online. he was in touch with the other proud boys on the ground, prosecutors like and him then to a general not a folder. the judge, in this case, timothy kelly has clearly taken that on board. he also said the terrier was motivated by revolutionary zeal and that he felt about tar you needed a particularly harsh sentence in order to head off the possibility of any seeing like january 6 happening again. bill to afghanistan or the human world food program is dropping to 1000000 people from food support. the agency blamed a massive shortfall in funding altogether. over $10000000.00 afghans have been dropped from food assistance since the beginning of this year. un is raising the

alarm over, shrinking aid to the country, warning of a catastrophe. if things don't change, said the world food program now has to choose between the hungry and the starving in a country where most already don't know where they will get their next me or, or join. now, from kabul by all the, the tc he's the agent editor, as a new humanitarian on the how bad has the situation, the humanitarian situation become for the people in afghanistan since the taliban re gain control. i mean, you just have to look at the ones that just takes over the last 2 years. they've consistently said that something between 18 and more than 20000000 people will be in need of some kind of emergency assistance over whatever year we're talking about 21. 2020212020 to 2023. and this year is no different this year. i think was estimated around 20, all ready. so now you're at a life,

you're taking away 2000000 more, 10000000 more. you're just adding to what it's already called the world's largest monitoring crisis. so it's very evident there's an issue here. who are the people most affected by the shortage of food on the i mean you're talking about, you know, very rural people. people who used to be farmers who are, were still farmers who, you know, had had to deal with the devastating effects of in the last 2 years. earthquakes flood drives who were already essentially living subsistence living. and then when the economy overall collapses and you know, investment lowers, they continue to suffer. they, they are suffering not only because of natural disasters that are beyond their control. they're also kind of suffering because of economic issues that are also beyond their control. which means that they are finding more and more difficult to feed themselves and their children. so the people in afghanistan are not chiefly

responsible for what they're, what they're facing. uh, it sounds like you're saying would you, whom would you say is chiefly responsible for the humanitarian crisis that we're seeing in afghanistan, a traditional community because you're talking about an economic crisis that was created after the telephone took over, which the international community knew were going to happen thing with this lock and i was coming back in power and immediately the conflict of sanctions bending restrictions, say with assets they cut back on age are continuing to cut back on while they are eating other countries that they feel are more important or something more valuable to them politically. and again, this is what the people are saying is that we are not on, we are not this moment our, why are we suffering because of that. and you know, the, the sorts of a carfax, these restrictions, all of these things, they also impact investor confidence. so even people,

men and women who have found ways to work previously. i even with all of the islamic cameras restrictions because investors are afraid to invest in the country because on the one, how do you feel there's no market, you know, the yes consumer spending is basically flatlined and on the other, you know, because of these restrictions and these functions and such is created this sort of perfect storm of negative economic impacts, right? just briefly alley. you say the international community is responsible and but what about the telephone? are they not responsible to? of course they are because at the same time you're talking about, for instance, let's talk about, you know, women only households which is a large portion of this country. it's not a negligible amount. and because for instance, let's say women in urban areas who used to be able to work for in any section of the government cannot really work in small segments of the government to even when they work in. and you always have to do it to work around and such that also

impacts you know, the ability of people to feed the pounds of the thank you very much. that was all in the tv is the editor at the new humanitarian. the intent is cocoa golf has made it into the semi finals of the us open for the 1st time. the 19 year old american made like work of the former french open champion young man of the pink of cocoa gulf is often compared to serena williams. for good reason. golf became the 1st american female teenager to reach back to back us open quarter finals. since serena did it in 2001 in the quarter finals were a walk in the park for the in form americans. the 1st set ended 6 to 0 against lot via an opponent you again at austin panko. it lasted only 20 minutes. golf did allow austin pay, go to win 2 games and the 2nd set,
