children, was seen queuing up outside cobble international airport on tuesday, hoping to be evacuated. a large group of locals could be seen waiting along barbed wire petitions holding their remaining documents as plains took off in the distance . i want to wait for the british and for the americans, and i have my documents with me right here for at least 10 years. i work with them . now i'm in danger. as you can see, the enemy is here. that is clear to everyone. they must have vacuum me from here as soon as possible. i might go to court. i come here 3 or 4 days in a row. there is nothing to eat and the people sleep because of hunger. i've worked for 6 or 7 years in the back room at bay, and now i fled my village and comfortable. i don't have a house and i want to flee. prior to that, some tried to scale perimeter walls of the airport to reach any evacuation flight. there are unconfirmed reports, a taliban fight has shot one man who was trying to climb a wall. as we understand now,

7 people have been confront killed at the airport in just the last few days. now some of those who reached the airport was so desperate to get out there was order to clinging onto the sides of the plains. this video was actually filmed by one of those taking such a risk. it's not clear what his faith was, although because the video didn't make it online, it's assumed he might still be alive. we understand a number of bodies were filmed, falling from the aircraft, and investigation is now underway. well, let's learn a little bit more crossing live. now to cover all the local journalists, sure, but not sure if he's out a thanks for coming on the program. sure. good to see you. we're still seeing videos of chaotic situation in couple, especially of course, around the international app or can you give us an update? exactly. how is it there on the ground right now? thank you very much. unfortunately, we have lots of problem in the complex traditional air force powers and hundreds of families left your homes. they went to the inside of the runway and hoping to quit

from. i've got to start from cobble, but because they don't have a good command, don't, don't have a passport. i just the night before the was the rumors spread among the people that americans have a quick everyone, everyone who arrive for everyone who wish to the airport would be a great bye bye bye bye americans abroad. but yes, hundreds of families. hundreds of people stored a liftgate home. busy so they went to the airport. lots of trouts are great inside of that. of course i deal with a lot of shootings. we have here and that's more than 7 people have been killed and some others want it. and that child time is still we have a problem in the airport shut down by the telephone. now, according to the information that because yesterday the telephone lock or may the check post, it's on gate of the airport and they don't. i mean i've gone school to get inside

of the airport. i'm the one who has a visa or was that the film? it was a passport, no one. no, i thought no one is allowed by the title and get the inside of the airport. i know . so i'm just, i'm just trying to understand here because the taliban recently made an announcement saying they would not be seeking any revenge. they would not be targeting any of those. i've gotten to a translators working for coalition forces, but show you. but as i, as i understand now, you're telling me that the taliban is actually controlling who goes in and who goes out of the cobble international effort. yes, for sure. the taller bump made a check by the 1st gate of are then 1st in front of the airport and they are controlling they don't. i mean, i've got to, to, to, to, to go inside of the airport that they are saying that your country, because i've got to start you off the stand, i'm going to start really for you. and we don't let, i mean i've got to leave a balanced on yes, they have a check on the checking every month that that they are great inside of the airport . and yes,

start visit. we will on the top of them for the 1st time of the 20 years of the press from the front and problem, they are short. you are going to get the translate letters, interpreters, and fix that, that they worked for before in us. but still people i don't trust on the promise is why did you still from the situation you're disappointed? lots of family thought is still waiting and also inside and outside of the airport . it's initially i thought a judicial airport and probably if a great from from problem. sure. but as you say, the taliban doesn't want to any ass guns from leaving out of the cobble international airport. we understand for the past 3 plus days, it's been mass evacuations for foreigners that the international, the in cobble are there. many internationals left there according to information. most of the international teachers,

most of the following knows that there was a difference, a job in permission or they were in different diplomatic offices or the 2 embassies. they were created completely different policy g just now hundreds of families the day where it went inside of the airport in the to 3 days before. and they're already inside of the airport. there are dear. from yesterday, i have gotten formation that the loss of guns, but they have a human being called by americans to be a greater phone call. but the dick within find the chance to get inside of the airport and they are just waiting to go to the top of them, give them permission to go inside of the airport. right, sure. but none of us are local afghans unless drawing us here live on our team. any thanks, we appreciate it. meanwhile, the taliban stage is 1st news conference since it stormed cobble a spokesperson for the group,

promised an amnesty for those ask and to work for the coalition forces. it was in fact, one of a number of pleasures made. i want to give assurances to all competitors, those on the position side as interpreters involved in military actions or those who health and civilian sectors. we have granted them all amnesty. we don't want to take revenge on any one and those youths who are talented and from the soil. we don't want them to leave never. they are a valuable asset. they must stay in the country, god willing, and according to sherry law, we will that women work and participate in activities. women are the main symbol of our society. we respect them. women will participate in different sectors of society. although, according to this area law, meanwhile fresh videos emerged said to be of women protesting in cobble that demanding that rights are respected, including work education and politics. a promising to protect women's rights within the limits of islam. but taliban says it will allow them to get an education and to

work. and she supposedly prove that new ways. there was an unprecedented event. most people calling it a big p. r event. a taliban official sat down with a female presenter for an interview with tolo news. local tv channel is all part of a p r campaign by the group to present a more moderate sides of the world. earlier, my colleague neal harvey, discuss the new approach with the head of the country's largest media company all about trying to win hearts and minds. they're trying to convince the political establishment people outside the tunnel on movement to join and support the taliban movement that are trying to secure international support. so i think it's a bit early. it's a bit too early to judge us to what the long term intentions are. there will be a transitional government know that they may be more restrictive and eventually they'll be an emerett at the top or have better ways so long ways to go before we can say that they're receptive to women on television or to equal opportunity for

math kind of how do you feel about freedom of speech in afghanistan, the moment you kind of optimistic may be feared the worst when the telephone came into power. but how are you feeling in the moment? i'm feeling neither. i think it's too early and we can't be naive to assume that they have changed for good. a freedom of speech is not just on reporting on facts. i mean they, they believed that gods on their side. and the holy koran is the constitution. and then they can never be challenged in time. they will need to be need to get channels and we'll see how much capacity they have for criticism when that happens . too, too, too early. and we have months and months ahead of us to see if they actually their, their actions match the words. it's understandable. we've seen an awful lot of people fleeing the heading for the airport. it's been tragic at times, watching the people that tends to get out of you had any of your stops saying look,

you know, we just not comfortable with this. we, we want to go. yes we have and there are many who want to stay on and continue their work and some who wish to get that. i mean what the tyler by doing that in the coming weeks will determine what people do in the years. i had this to sort of this, this middle class, this youth balls, you know, 60 percent off for november, the age of 20. and they can, they can make or break the country. and if they leave, we lose our educated class. so really it's up to the top line in terms of how they behave and their behavior is going to impact what people do in the months ahead. so the new look taliban has also failed to convince the e u. s. foreign policy chief joseph borrow, who call for dialogue with the group to to prevent a mandatory crisis. but that means it doesn't mean he, as he said, it doesn't mean you're getting international recognition. of course taliban is still listed as a terrorist organization. why?

most of the world borrow admitted all the time and effort invested in the country over 20 years has all been in vain. anyone has been surprised by the following few days or not really. where do we have to spend a lot of money and a lot of efforts to drain and found enough to get even the balance has been surprised by their history. you lead is growing increasingly wired about the situation and honest on faring the chaos could wind its way up to europe in a deluge of refugees. first have to discuss how to accommodate people in they bring countries and then move forward. the next step would be to look further afield, but a european solution would certainly be difficult. we haven't yet managed to create a common is our policy. now, despite miracles, concern about the human crisis and the potential impact that they could have on europe, she did manage to find time to attend to phone premiere in berlin. and this is despite the criticism that so far,

gemini had only evacuated 7 of its national from could bull. at the same time, a number of leaders are very pessimistic. you have, for example, the check president my list zeeman, who had said that nature failed in afghanistan. and its legitimacy has now been brought into question. the distrust towards nato from a number of member countries will grow up to this experience because they will say, if you failed and again, it's done. whereas the guarantee that you won't fail in any other critical situation as well. austria, it had called on neighboring countries to have done to set up people taishan centers as a way of handling immigrants that are attempting to plead the taliban. austria, of course, is maintaining a very hard line stones when it comes to immigrants. you then have turkey, which is in the final stages of building a 295 kilometer roads along its border with iran to prevent african refugees

from entering that country. the nato secretary general said the priority for nato was as follows. nato's focus now is to ensure the safe departure or personnel from ally than partner countries and of the africans who have helped us start good miss hood, that europe was surprised at the speed of the political and military collapse of the cobble government. it was something that they had not anticipated. he also said that he was frustrated that after years of international assistance, the results were to quote him, not better. meanwhile, the german army has been out of thing afghan evacuated to safety. some were taken to neighboring rebecca on a 3 special lift hands of flights of spin, arranged so far. the 1st on monday was slammed for taking only 7 people. the german foreign ministry defended the flight, saying the chaotic situation of the airport meant it wasn't possible to get anyone else safely on board. also, british and africa evacuated have arrived on

a military plan in the u. k. i. mr. johnson has announced a new resettlement scheme for afghan citizens, the 1st year of which we'll see the u. k. taken around 5000 people, mostly women and children. and we quiz those on the streets of london and new york about what they think about the past few days as the world has witnessed a change. and i've got this done. the whole politicians throughout the world should be smoothly hanging their head in shame. what's happening absolutely disgraceful. well, with cd effects, no only was the everybody, not just a gun to some european america. everybody was and it has created a great deal of difficulty for people working there. and obviously for the native, a, people of afghanistan, shame, what's happening over there, but have dentist and they've been fighting for 102 years. the fact that we've been over there for 20 years,

we really haven't stabilized the country. there's no reason for us to be over there . my biggest are the women that are left behind. i know what is that the taliban regime saying that they will allow women to have the freedom that they've enjoyed past 20 years. but i don't believe it. i mean, concerns about what impact the return of the taliban will have on people's lives. the red cross says it will keep it stop and continue providing assistance to all sides. but recently the organization reported that since the start of june is treated 40000 people injured and fighting that. and while the 5th of august so far alone is $8000.00. the charities directly for asia and the pacific says more than a horrible casualties are women and children on the recent fighting, you know, in the country and the city. and the recent days we've been seeing a number of ensured must have been correct or people injured in us because that's

what it would fighting to down leg. got it right and just created huge. you monitor in need. here are deeply you back a bit more from the fighting over the years here. the concern is really much on the women and children that are making more than half of the casualties such that we have. we have, you know, we're, you know, because i can understand the reason for our safety and this is not something that we are denying. however, much of the remedy that we have had over the years and he's already known. and we've been working in pregnancy control and going forward, i read to him, i'm very much going to be that we can continue working with. he's are very much the ones are trying to teach independence any percentage. and it's very crucial, particularly at this moment. that's when the session stand by the was i'm at the

genetic events of the past few days. it's only recently come to light that of one of the taliban top commanders who stormed the presidential palace in the capital, was actually a former resident, or the notorious one time obey prison camp. here's our correspondence. dmitri polk, if the situation and i guess that wasn't already a disaster showcasing the shortcomings of us foreign policy and appetite for regime change. well, it turns out one of the taliban leaders who gave a celebratory speech from couples, presidential palace was none other than a former guantanamo detainees who was released as a quote medium risk. guess seriously, of all the people, the u. s. tortured in guantanamo. this was one of the guys deems thought, really dangerous, and let go meet gold roo honey. one of the 1st detainees at guantanamo in 2002. he was captured by us forces on suspicion of being a taliban security officer during his time and get more rou, honey. maintain that he was quote,

a simple shopkeeper who tried to help americans. so some 5 years later, or 8. according to ronnie, he was released on the promise that he just wanted to help is sick father won an appliance store and couple fast forward to 2021 and he's a taliban commander, leading the take over of cool. so either the u. s. intelligence was, well not really intelligent and let a taliban radical pull one over them and lie his way out of the hands of the ca, or it was the time spent in getting all that actually radicalized the simple shopkeeper into a taliban fanatic. don't matter if a detainee were innocent. indeed, because he lived and they've got to stop and was captured on or near the battle area, he must know something of importance. well, apparently all the torture and human rights violations that get mall, and other us detention centers turned out to be all for nothing. sure, they apparently got some good and fell out of some of the detainees. but on the other hand, the ones that they let go went on to became terrorist leaders. yeah,

ronnie isn't the only the teenager terrorist boss. there's a whole list there is the 5 taliban leaders that obama swapped for an american desert, or these leaders were promised to never see a battlefield again. and that would be held in could tar far from again, a stand regardless of the circumstances, whatever those circumstances may turn out to be we still get an american soldier back if you seldom kept it period full stop yet somehow there. now apparently the masterminds behind the current take over a couple. one of them is even a part of the official delegation of the taliban. he even took part in negotiating b u. s. withdrawal from janice. then earlier this year. we'll see. then there are the isis super terrorists. for example, the infamous all buck daddy, the former leader of isis. he was captured in 2004, held in detention at

a u. s. facility and iraq for 10 months. let go and went on to have a successful career and terrorism becoming the head honcho of the big bad, isis. he was a st. sog when we picked him up in 2004. it's hard to imagine we could about a crystal ball, then that would tell us he'd become head of isis. yeah. if only you could have seen that coming anyway. and then there's this guy who was a valuable inform and during his time, at the hands of us intelligence, our, that was the song but of unique talent and ability. and now he's no less than the current leader of isis replacing all. but daddy turns out he was just using the us to get rid of the competition for the top spot amongst terrorists and other big wolf's. this is kind of beginning to seem like a trend. know, basically, not only did the us fail to recognize dangerous radicals when they were right there their hands, they apparently even managed to embolden and help radicalized people who probably wouldn't have posed any threat if it weren't for having an encounter with some

american intelligence officers. in the end, america seems to be fighting problems itself created and so many that doesn't even come as a shock. well, the thought of us not only got his hands on for us prisoners, but also of course it's weaponry. biden's national security adviser admitted american arms have been captured by the medicine. so there are other suggest they were either left or gifted. those black hawks were given to the tall one. they were given to the african national security forces to be able to defend themselves. we don't have a complete picture obviously of where every article of defense materials has gone, but certainly a fair amount of it has fallen into the hands of the taliban. and obviously, we don't have a sense that they are going to readily handed over to us at the airport. written comments by us officials show the washington was indeed shocked by the speed in which the taliban staged

a total route of the country. and the remains on the clear what to do next. even well drawn plans don't survive 1st contact with reality. this is happen more rapidly than we anticipated here. there is chaotic situation in cobble where we don't even have the establishment of the governing authority. when you're at a point where things are happening more quickly than anyone would have anticipated, then you're going to have some chaotic stand slash you listen to us officials discussing afghanistan. they don't seem to be providing real information and seem to be emphasizing that they don't have a clear picture of the answers. the questions they're being asked. we are seeing us officials try out an old tried and true method flap on some sanctions and hope everything works out. i am not going to go into the full planet panel play of things that we can do, but there are obviously issues related to sanctions. there remains to be seen whether or not the taliban really cares about us. sanctions, however,

washington has made clear is not going to sacrifice any more american lives on the altar of democracy. in afghanistan, however, the national security adviser sullivan did make clear, he cares deeply about afghan women. truly deeply. my heart goes out to ask in women and girls in the country today under the telephone. so amid confusion as the global community looks on the situation and app ganeth. stan as a lot of questions for us leaders about what they did know and didn't know and what's going to happen in the future. i'm sure everyone is totally reassured by these answers that have just been provided by washington. officials, as you probably seen, president biden did strike a bit of a defiant tone when he talked about the decision to withdraw out of afghanistan. but as claims that the mission was never about nation building do stand installed, contrast to the promises made 2 decades ago. as he got done off now explains it

didn't take long for the taliban to fill in the power vacuum left after the now infamous us pull out, defending the with the rule, president biden pin the blame on the african government. political leaders of afghans were unable to come together for the good of their people unable to negotiate for the future of their country. when the chips were down, they would never have done so while u. s. true remainder that can stand, bearing the brunt of the fighting for them. america's mission and i've got to stand was never supposed to have been nation building, says president bite and in 2021. the alternative to nation building is k. s. senator biden retorts, in some parts administration, nation building is still a dirty phrase. but the alternative to nation building is chaos. a chaos that churns out blood thirsty warlords, drug traffickers and terrorist. when the us failed to swiftly hand down,

been locked in 2001. the mission shifted towards remodeling the country into an ideal society that does not breed terrorists. george bush used the exact words nation building when looking back, flashing back at american efforts in the country. we know that true peace will only be achieved when we give the afghan people the means to achieve their own aspirations. piece piece will be achieved by helping afghanistan develop its own stable government. but to do that meant to break the spine of the traditionalist african society and implants a new one from reconstruction and aid efforts to overseeing the formation of the new african state army. us trained, of course, and that did not come cheap the the,

me i the real the wealthiest country in the history of the world. and yet we have the higher trial poverty rate, almost any country on earth. critics, even brandon, the ex president of august, and as for ghani, a us protege, he is a familiar figure to the american establishment while washington european allies also didn't have any illusions about what exactly the aim of the mission was. i

didn't succeed and weren't accomplished as we had planned that the realization and the big one is terrifying for the millions of afghans who supported the more free society and who with the support of western states. strong for democracy, dictation and women's rights, and made important progress. moreover, the right volumes of books studying us nation building. and i've got to stand one's literally called exactly like that word for word. but the bite and team refuse to capitulate and just admit defeat. instead, they're trying to hide their intentions behind the abstract facade of the war on terror and branding it as an actual success. we succeeded in achieving those fundamental objectives and the idea that we would sign up for remaining there in the midst of the civil war for another $510.00 or 20 years, was simply not in the national interest,

killing bin laden 10 years ago is arguably the only achievement the u. s. has to show for its mission and i've got to stand other benefits which the country well did enjoy under the u. s. protectorate, like an improvement in women's rights, a lower infant mortality rate and more children going to school. all of that is now left at the taliban mercy. while the ruling leads in washington, too busy writing revisionist history. all right, that's a rap on this. our coverage of the unraveling situation in afghanistan. of course, we've been following closely online and on on. we will continue to do so if you want to catch up on any angles of afghan story, just log onto auto dot com the ah, oh,

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy foundation, let it be an arms race is on often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical of time. time to sit down and talk to me i the was not absent or you're watching the season finale of going undergrads as the world potentially witnesses. the end of the so called american, the euro coming up in the show,

the ambassador to the united nations of regional power broke about this time and
