the the anyway, begins enough gather satin still dominates the headlines this monday morning. cobble airport se shut for another 24 hours. it was closed on sunday to try and clear the huge black logo. people desperate to leave. thousands of would be of curies heading for the only way out of the taliban control country at the moment. also had some of the africans who worked for coalition forces did manage to flee, but their relatives remained in the country living in fear for their lives. we speak to one translator on terms a complete and imitate because risks remain awfully high. believe that americans are responsible for those that are killed. as a result of this will be a number of cities worldwide have seen rallies in support of the women of afghanistan. their faith is yet another

major concern after the taliban came to power away from that huge story. we're bringing the coverage on. we're bringing this to. we're continuing a series of reports on trans identified men being placed in female prisons where the incidence of sexual assault and coercion only increase. ah, hello, there is a one of the morning from moscow the 23rd of august, kevin, in here with you without international for the next half hour. thanks for checking in. hope your monday is going good so far. so we're talking about off canister. no surprise there than a lot to tell you about. i've got to stand and says it's 2nd week under the total control of the taliban with carnival airport room. and the only way out of the country and transport have closed on sunday. and they said to stay shut for the next 24 hours to try and evacuate the thousands of people already inside. and so in

small oral, so waiting at the airport perimeter to in the hope of being able to flee the country. at least 20 have been killed in crushes and stampedes one local german. this gave us this report on the situation on the ground. ah, only foreign military flights are updated from inside of cobbler international airport. have a great day foreign diploma and i've gone see if you guys who work for international troops and for either enjoy for us i have got information. now the cover gate has been shut down for 48 hours to quit people that they are already the size of the airport. now we are, and one of the rushes gate off cobbler national airport. you can see that it still 100 people are waiting outside of the gate and hope to get

a chance to go inside of the airport. ah, audio, i don't work for 3 years. the foreign troops, all my documents are approved for the day. i'm coming here to be told my documents are invalid, only us possible. get you here. america is the problem. they create these challenges, the cheating we get, people playing a game with the people probably came back to normal life. most of the shops are open. we can see more traffic more via goes in the industry, though i real quick. so, but for people who opened a truck that says lee has been over for 2 or 3 days. the good thing about the

calvin run and things here is that there are no explosions or flight. but the best thing is there are no jobs work at all. all departments have failed and people are tense. the all star because it kept the telephone gun some captured by the taliban. it has been several days that the government departments are shut down. people are coming every day behind the department of the government, but they don't get permission from time to get inside of the government department deluxe. when it comes to running, the can see there is presently a power. when our leaders came to couple, we have leading. a president administered on our cabinets, has been appointed. when only this take up the position, they will tell everyone to return to work. she's time caught on the dutch, lots of people are hiding in their homes. afraid to venture around what is your message to them? people that today or tomorrow we may ask them to return to work. we have announced

the national amnesty for everyone. we are not accountable people say, yeah, i'll probably, we will not tolerate off can thing. we have even a topic, not with the about driving. and i'm with her being out and never disturbing people, you know, maybe have very calmly with the people i got from 5 to 4 provinces. i've got a son, we have only one province, which is under control of the not an opposition group. it's proven they are working to get up the farm militia form uprising groups against the taliban. but there are reports that are part of both or what not. and i grew up with that much, far together are joined together and pharma intrusive government. and she was covering what's been happening at the port, the total chaos. so there was a big we're at one point that could be some sort of terrorist attack from one branch of i s that that which is why americans were being warned officially,

not to go to the airport until they were officially someone hasn't happened. we, i eric from the german defense ministry this morning that there's been a shooting at the airport one dead, 3 injured apparently as a result of a shooting at campbell airport. we'll get you more on that details. so very sketchy at the moment, but it's a pretty dangerous place to be la resistance moving. we heard about those headed by masoud, who said if the taliban refused talks, then civil war is inevitable. he also wrote an op ed in the washington post in which he called on the us to supply arms to his militia. if conflict does come a course, they're going to be facing as taliban armed with advanced western western re including aircraft and armored vehicle all left behind by coalition military forces or seized from the afghan army reports growing of reprisals by the taliban. anyone that worked for or had a connection to foreign forces is in danger. many have managed to get out,

but family and friends have been left behind. crucially, we spoke to one of many interpreters who worked with the coalition forces during the 20 year campaign. there, he asked to keep his name location secret because of big fears for his family. at the moment my, my family is not residing in our own private home. they're living in somebody's else home. they're fitting for the live a day. they cannot sleep, they're going to suppress depression because of this whole thing. and, and how long to discontinue hold on to the height. i'm scared for them. i'm scared former my, my parents, the entire country is under the siege of the taliban. now that they have the, those databases and those information are pretty much to have everything about us. i believe that americans are responsible for this negligence. and today's, anybody who will be killed as a result of this blood will be on behalf of the american government.

or if i knew that someday the americans will hand over this country back to the same terrorist that we started fighting in 2001. i would not have joined the ranks . i would have not worked with the americans or british forces. we did not knew that some to be there will be a betrayal from the americans and the natural forces of been contacted by many british citizens who are stuck enough to understand what of the situation with the british citizen with his children stood in front of the base for more than 3 days after being beaten by the taliban, a number of times and his children got tired, exhausted, and sick. finally, after the last time that he was beaten by the telephone, he left the airport and now is heading back to the village. and he called me and he was crying and saying that it's better to be killed by the taliban than being here . he related the way in front of the fort in front of my kids wife,

the fate of african women under the new taliban rule remains. yet another major concern this big res, worldwide hundreds, took to the streets of cities across europe to show the solidarity with african women. protest is demanded action from the governments, including accepting more refugees, money express fears, to tell a bumbling post strict laws prohibiting women from certain aspects of public life and education. human rights activists, santa jobs explains who she thinks is responsible for the current situation. in my opinion, america is the main country who, who is responsible right now, because what they should be doing, they're not doing what they are doing is against humanity. terrorists, specifically, paula bon, the, i'm mostly against of him and they are more he again, those women who raise their ways, who are not coming, fighting that themselves under the, for inside the for was of the home. so that's the reason the target. that's the

reason that is because they were against them. they were against those barbarians policies of them. they were against their force in imposing those terrorist on their country. that's the reason against them. in its turn, the taliban pledge to respect to women's rights, but only inside the boundaries of sherry a law. the militants also encouraged women to return to work and have allowed girls to return to school for now. human rights activists. senate just telling is such statements by the taliban though. words in reality, women being severely targeted. life now move movement members walk members who are in cobble who, who in level one ending good high dad in hiding it because they the, was often, lee, they did protest against the human rights violations, most of the terrorists, even according to the united nations, they're searching for them and my members, they contacted me and told me that a people,

i can't say people don't tolerate their searching a door to door home to home searching and they have list of those them. and they have list of the right defenders working against their policies. and they're searching for them and they are trying to, i know they will succeed. i know they will be decreasing prosecution as well. if they got them be contacting the family members and they are asking them to let them know they read about. so they are in constant move, bad and constant run from the service right now. some of them are hiding in different parts of the country. you know what is done, but they really need to be moved from the anger over the destruction. enough ghana stanz reached america to with rallies pouring out onto the streets to protest against the taliban. seizing power of the us coalitions. rapid withdrawal protests

broke out. the non both the east and west coast from malay to washington. d. c will demonstrate as jumping free of understanding bite and you betrayed it. they also to volunteer at the white house, helps the struggling africa and population. more politicians across nato countries lead time blame the u. s. and biden, in particular, for the loss of i've got to stand next this morning. don't know, quarter looking at the growing anger, 20 years of occupation, more than 2 trillion dollars spend hundreds of thousands dead. it's half the price tag only to get a humility leading defeat and botched evacuation. in return, naturally the president had some explaining to do to the american people, majority of americans, and forgive me, i'm just the messenger no longer consider you to be competent, focused, or effective in the job. i haven't seen the only reason we're against this is a place from which ben loudon attacked the united states of america. had this been

in another middle eastern country where he could have easily moved from we would have never gone to a gas fighting proverbial house of cards already. looks as if it's coming crashing down the atlantic council called washington deer caught in headlights. the administration's job approval. rating fell below that of disapproval for the 1st time ever. and the nations allies, well, they are not happy is used catastrophe. good people. so there were some barriers incredibility. one for the developing of international relations, $99.00 sharp. this is evident. it is clear that this commitment by the international community has not been successful. this is the biggest debug that nader has seen since it's foundation. and it is in the book of change that we're facing out to see that commander in chief call into question. the courage of men, i forthwith to claim that they ran shameful in those who have never fought for the colors they fly,

should be careful about christ lighting. those who have the united states of america bear the main responsibility for the current situation because of their decision. so leave of garrison in parts over with hasty, they have the main responsibility to make matters worse. it looks like the man donald trump famously branded, sleepy joe might have been snoozing while all this was going on. i have seen no question of our credibility from our allies around the world. i've spoken with our nato allies spoken with nato allies, the secretary state or national security via he's been in contact with his counterparts throughout the world. and our allies, as has the general or excuse me, i keep calling them in general, but my secretary of defense. the fact of the matter is i have not seen a matter of fact the exact opposite. i've got, this is about america leading the world and all our allies have agreed with that. the seemingly out to lunch attitude and utter fiasco that took place under the

current administration has drawn criticism from not just biden's rivals, but from fellow party members as well. i am disappointed that the button administration clearly did not accurately assess the implications of a rapid us withdrawal. the images we saw coming out of of going to start show a tremendous humanitarian crisis. this is going to hurt us. no question about it. i think of janice town, his last, every terrorist around the world is cheering. they have watched the taliban defeat america. in effect, president buttons, poor judgment produced the worst possible outcome in afghanistan in only a matter of weeks. even criticism from the media was generally bipartisan secretary blink. and how did president bite and get this so wrong? how could officials have missed fits? how did it happen? how do we get here? does president abide not bear the blame for this disastrous exit from afghanistan? another 3 years of fighting and we're going to be lucky if we have

a single ally left. america is back. that was biden's famous promise. but after a colossal failure in america's longest war, ever, many are starting to wonder if he meant america's turning its back on everyone's trust. this is 10 to national. good morning. it's 16 minutes past the hour. if you're watching around the world, a day's going good, and if you can stick around, i'd love to tell you about these stories to come up concerns growing over cases of trans identifying man, this man, this is a complicated one. stay with me. it being placed in female prisons worldwide and problems because of it, we've got the 2nd series of special reports not to be missed. after the break. you join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the

world. the politics sport, business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. me the media a reflection of reality in a world transformed what will make you feel safer? type relation for community. are you going the right way or are you being somewhere direct? what is truth? what is faith in a world corrupted? you need to this end. the join us in the depths will remain in the shallows, use the

so, as mentioned, they return now to social issues, not getting enough exposure in the mainstream media in the latest of a series, especially in depth reports. we're looking at the problem of transgender convicts abusing female inmates in prisons around the globe. a growing number of women say that lives have been turned into a living hell by mail, prisoners exploiting the system. in one of the most notorious cases in canada, women found themselves in danger for a predatory male offend, who identified as a woman, was sent to their prison. the walk in on him have inspecting the dream in the bathroom, making out with someone else and wanting to re sign with me for women really the

morning after someone also had to take the bill, which she used under the assumption that it provides protection from 8th and habitat is be mean the one who the one day telling me how beautiful i was. and he was trying to get his name. it was super weird. all the girls were uncomfortable, shalon and the house with him and everything. he tried to tell me he was in love with me. it was weird. he asked me to leave for him and the girl and started making out with her and feeling her out. well, i was there. he breck, how many girls his last 3 years, and he also bragged about taking the girls virginity in the library to get details as well as the error when it, when they're worth your of us getting there. it was in the living room. do you

encounter? i couldn't eat after the braces are inside women's jails rating. our women men are using this loophole to access already vulnerable. women who have new voice or platform to speak from our government, setting out women to be sexually assaulted by these may read this while we requested comments from kind of as correctional service about the allegations as when they get back to us. we'll let you know what their response is. a correspondence tusky taylor spoke to activists has a mason, who shed light on the story of the canadian conflict as a shed her own experience of abuse by transgender imprison. oh, in fact, it wants to, it's got a sense of your time inside, and specifically how trans inmates affected your experience. i was incarcerated

with trans individuals in provincial. that was the 1st time i came across it. and then again, when i went to federal and that was when they actually put them on compound with us, instead of segregating them away from us. and they didn't have to have surgery. so that happened in 2017. and what was your reaction when you were trans inmates living in the compound with you? well, i was actually really freak doe in provincial because they brought me over to the indirect supervision range. and there is a sex offender there that was bully intact. and he was there hiding out because of his crimes. that's what the guards told me anyway, that he was trying to peek into my style when they're searching me. so that was my very 1st experience of that. but when i got to the federal and i was told that there are men on compound with us,

i was blown away. i didn't believe it. i couldn't believe that they were putting males in women's presence. i was actually harassed by one of them when i was inside, used to get me to try to walk back and forth in front of them so that they could check out my but lots of other comments as well. and then i was also in the halfway with a male who was fully intact and it was like walking on egg shells. we got into a few like altercation just like verbally, but there, but there are more now that i have transferred, that have been in with my friends and women that i've been inside with. are you worried that there are people who are going to use the system in order to end up in a female prison and then come out and decide that he's a man again? well, yeah, there's nothing to prevent them if they claim transgender identity. you can't say that they're not transgender because you're discriminating against their

identity or their expression, and even the one, but do get denied training for spare. utilizing the grievance system, which is a complaint system or correctional services of canada, when their complaint is not resolved, they're bringing it to the human rights tribunal. so when they, when these cases, it opens the door to what's going on at the united states right now. so they got to hear that cases, hud. how about you? did you ever inform the gods about how uncomfortable you thought about incident you described of sexual assault? and if so, how did they react? so as women, we do not utilize the avenues that are set up for the grievance system and the human rights tribunal. we're just not, we're not taught about it. we don't understand how the system works. and for the most part, women are there, they're dealing with. so much trauma like

a lot of them are like constitution, drug addiction and abuse their entire lives. they just accept it as another thing that's happened to them is reality of being female. so there are complaints and there are grievances, but not enough limit speaking out because they're scared. did any of your fellow female prisoners have similar experiences to you? yeah. some of my friends were like, pushed up against the wall in the laundry room and had time to shut down the road. they've had their breasts or their touch, actual comments. few of them have been sexually assaulted, so to speak to a lot of women that have been incarcerated. and the stories are very similar, same of physical altercation. they've never been punched in the face so hard. they're starting to carry weapons around, which is not a normal thing for women that are incarcerated in canada. they're putting soup cans

and socks because they know that they're fighting males and not women. and there's the really, really big power difference between them. candidates, prison system allows men to choose to solve a sentence and a female prison. if they say they identify as women, they don't need to undergo any sod, true or hormone therapy. that what is enough fuel far to say this is in the name of the quality and to ensure the safety of transgender is the low change was pushed for by prime minister justin trudeau. himself, will you do your best to ensure that transform and are put in prison or prison, more appropriate to their gender identity is yes, i will ensure that i consider myself to be a fairly strong advocate for, for l g b t, q 2 issues and fairly aware of all the different pressures and this wasn't one that

i had ever thought of. so thank you. have the mason, whom we just heard from, says the government has to rethink its approach to the whole issue. nobody wants to speak about it. they don't want to report on it. we're being told that we're lying, that it's not happening that have to use that return. so back there's literally no discussion about it. there is no discussion before any of the policies that were implemented. and i feel like there are solution to this, they have the room in men's institutions that have wings and dorms. and they can make l g b, t q, wing, better tailored to their unique needs because their needs are different than women's names. so they have the room, they don't have to build prison, and then they can take care of the entire community and not just this black view that are being transferred into the women's prison right now. but also there are trans men, so those are females to identify as men and their deny transfers due to overriding

health and safety concerns because it's not safe in men's presence. so this is a one sided policy. the only benefits mailed you still have their peanut, because we took mail who have had surgery since at least 1982 over in the united states. similar concerns have been raised. for example, by the case of deny one, wrote a transgender woman in enjoy, who was transferred from a mens prison to a women's facility that was after she alleged mail inmates had sexually harassed her. but in her new prison, monro herself was accused of raping a female inmate at the thought of the california past its own controversial law. now it allows trans inmates to be transferred to facilities. that line with the gender identity below was adopted in january by may, over 216 transfer requests had been made. and that left some female convicts very

worried. i will not be a victim anymore. i haven't do the sexual abuse as young as 4 to 8 and with the rape as well as numerous main staff correctional officers being an appropriate ever since california. as as b one for 2 has passed, i have been living in constant fear. i can't mentally function without fear. if the men come here, please help us. i'm scared just because they feel like a woman doesn't mean their penis doesn't work. we discuss california law with alexa horror on a co founder partners for ethical, cat, and founder of the agenda mapping project. she says the well being of women prisoners is simply of no interest to legislators. senate bill 132 is, is, is like i see it sentencing women who have committed whatever crime to the punishment of sexual violence at the hands of meals. and i think that in terms of the

pyramids of nice, gavin newsome and got we are, and every other enabler who had the largest to happen, views, the feelings of the physical safety of incarcerated women at the bottom of that pyramid of needs. when we of course understand it has to be a top ortiz keeping a close eye on similar developments in the us and elsewhere in the world. and we'll have more features on the issues raised to cotton. ah, if you are going to vote that conversation about that thing else we're covering today, just want to check it out. see the comb or any of us social media, but for now this monday morning at moscow, kevin, in the team saying thank you for watching. and we're going to have a good day. you new

more? we're pretty good. someone who's going to watch, you know, of course the 991 of the situation spirals completely out of control. got about you know, the referendum for the spring of that year in be of soviet fit to vote on whether the state should be preserved on changed it for you with the 3 city and the one that are going to give you the trends. nice. there is a narrow strip of land along the bank of the nice river in soviet times. it was part of the mold davian soviet socialist republics. in the late 19 eighties, the winds of change began to blow inches now and local nationalists.
