5:06 pm
duggan there is an inquiry underway into what happened to cause his death but there have been no results so far people are still asking what actually happened there is quite a tense atmosphere here people are worried about the effect of the police on that community that will take it any welcoming to the media we were given a little bit of a hard time when we went to the estates where mr duncan and his family lived but the funeral taking place it's a very fair it's a very respectful affair and that's how the community here want to keep it but they still have questions that need answering about what happened to mr duncan why was he shot by police marksman what were the events that led up to his death and those are questions which so far have no answers. it was an event that stunned the world and even a decade on still leaves few people moved the repercussions of nine eleven is still being felt today in the form of the war on terror and yet there's other reports for
5:07 pm
us for the majority of the people who felt the full force of the world in the aftermath of the attacks. just another day. helmand in southern afghanistan is the province that was borne the brunt of the fighting between the taliban and coalition forces. afghans in this war torn province think about nine eleven and its consequences. while on patrol with the marines i get a first opportunity to ask a couple of young afghan men what they know about nine eleven but those. who are with us here. never heard of. and can us know where it is we don't know if that's because because we're former we never heard about the need for the world more talking. to young men and clearly never heard of nine eleven. but maybe the elders of the local sure would have more to say you know you see. this thing i just don't see the smoke from the buildings and
5:08 pm
that's a that's when you think you can see it when you guys show this picture. so i think that was a call what if i just got here i would been surprised but having been here now for six months this is pretty much the stone ages where we are what to do about the reactions. of the older guy who said it was kabul was never going to kabul you just shows you how isolated there are even in their own country to model what i want to . do you know you don't think you know you're going to america afghanistan come to this point and to get the airplane from here to attack in the united states you know how much. thought it was nice to go from iraq to then here is a lot easier to understand you know why you're here and you see at that picture it was good picture minder so this is what this action flick and this article where you form occurring right. to the back. and saying we're going to help you to destroy one building and they destroy us how many

5:10 pm
development found that ninety two percent of afghan men in helmand and other afghan provinces had no idea what nine eleven was and with american troops that start with during this year it seems likely that they will leave afghanistan without the vast majority of afghans ever having really understood why they came in the first place from afghanistan for no. it is the u.s. proposed withdraw its troops from afghanistan some are already counting the cash will be saved but we saw the state of the military disapprove being one of the last stable employers it may be more beneficial to keep those troops where they are we've got more on that particular discussion coming up. next though russia will send a fact finding mission to syria to get firsthand information about the situation there the decision was announced by the country's presidential envoy to africa for his meeting with the relation of syrian opposition leaders here in moscow earlier they blame president bashar al assad for the political deadlock in syria right now
