the ah ah, mid day moscow time in the headlines, western countries now warning of an eminence, severe risk of a terrorist attack and cobble airport and telling the nationals to stay away from the site. the thousands are still amassing their desperate to get out before the looming evacuation deadline, passing president biden's approval ratings. here's

a new lo ami veterans voice their anger at how the current situations unravel. my letter that i think everyone's lead down. everyone does not pulling out of just even invading. dana sam was a radius taylor turkey accuses b. u of turning the country into its warehouse for refugee as you're trying to plug the micro exodus. ah, good afternoon. welcome to the program, watching out international live from a world news h q on kevin. oh, it will 1st. this says that there's news in the us, the u. k. in a strange, you know, wanting to have an imminent threat of a severe terror attack at cobble airport and have told their citizens to stay away from the area. in case of happens since i've got to stand fell to the taliban,

thousands about foreign nationals and afghans. like if we desperately trying to flee, we've got pitches in to show you from the area around the airport. it's shambles. a mass of people could call it a disaster zone, a suppose people sitting there amongst countless bags and suitcases, hoping to get out not knowing what the future is, rubbish strewn all around them. after the taliban rejected claims it was going to stop. afghans was international visas from leaving the country. people still had a bit of hope that could get out those that wanted to see senior correspondence in that conflict. we are a nation reporting back for us and shares what life is like at the moment. under the new regime as we were landing, we expected the situation to be desperate. her end is evil and we certainly weren't disappointed it isn't quite the pandemonium we saw in the early days of this evacuation. so the mobs and the hordes crushing each other in a be to get to these crawford to flee the taliban to flee. i've got to stop things

are a much more ordered. now nevertheless, it is still very much desperate. as we descended down from the aircraft we were, we were greeted with with an air field that is listed with the shell casings, bullet casings as well as mt. flashback grenades here, gas cabinets. the also be news, sleepers shoes, clothes, children's clothes, lizard all over the place. one of the most striking things was also the barbed wire . it is, it is everywhere. i haven't seen bob was laid as high as it was. that is veritable wolves. of bob was to keep people away from the field as we were driving out of the field. we had me the 2 meters when we saw people trying to rush the main gate and the taliban pfizer wildly firing voting shots even behind his back was a miracle that no one was heard. there were thousands of people,

literally thousands of people. many of them young, many of them, evidently trying to use the opportunity to get out of of got to start. but among them elder people, people with families, children, women, but we're carrying, you know, baby's death desperate to get them out of the country. so so the taliban ease ease being relentless, very harsh in keeping people away. as we drove further away from the field though it must be said that they were but much more ordered shops were open business. his, we're open people walking around with with groceries, with, with food, with necessities doing about their lives, work, things were much less desperate. there was traffic, but it wasn't as it was in the early days sort of one way towards the airport. but nevertheless, things are very much chaotic here. people are still getting used to the taliban, which had the barely a few months ago was the a, you know, the fringes of the country. and now in charge of the capital for more pictures to

show you, rush has also been evacuating people who cub over the cale stricken international there for, for russian air force planes taking part of the rescue operation. taken 500. so for the country, including citizens of russia, better us ukraine, and kind of times the former soviet, unable to get stun. oh, [000:00:00;00] i wish we hadn't expected the evacuation to go to this. well, it's been very good. crowded. it's usually taken 5 or 6 days to evacuate. we were told yesterday and today we'll ready on the plan. ah,

let me see. i want to thank precious president and defense minister for taking us out of the dangerous place and bringing us to jacob. they said us too many thanks to them done. oh, i distribute them, we had to wear home shoes and can do for school. i went to think christ helping us in this situation because it's very difficult to get to the airport to me for the situation on the streets. a couple remains tense today with telephone fight has patrolling in ahmed vehicles and brandishing extensive weaponry. i think the problem is the physical issue in the capital of a lack of money, long queues for me outside banks in the vain hope they might reopen anytime soon. they've been close no for 10 days. ever since the taliban sweat to power. and of course says always happens to humanity in the face of adversity. some citizens try

their best to take advantage of it, make a way for they can make the best of the situation that they're living, such as this guy vendor, set up little shop such as it is outside the abandoned us embassy and carbo. little snapshot lives selling taliban flags. he bought the nearby market. we think maybe putting a little bit of a markup on to take advantage of the passing cars, passing that embassy now and the changing ways of thinking and the patter. it isn't spin, confirmed 82000 people have flown out of afghanistan since evacuation efforts started . that figure confirmed from the us secretary state, although many more aren't likely to make it up by the looming august 31st deadline, anthony blanket insist they will not be forgotten. there is no deadline on our work to help any remaining american citizen to decide they want to leave to do so. along with the many afghans who have stood by us over these many years, the expectation of the international community is that people who want to leave

afghanistan after the u. s. military departs, should be able to do so. the taliban repeatedly said it will be any extensions to that of occupation deadline with the u. s. seat and control of cobble and pull that in just a matter of days. now the say to those who still want to get that after that is going to be in the hands of the militant group. retired us army kurland diplomat and right believes while most of people will be more or less happy to remain in the country. there are still reasons that thousands will want to flee. the great majority of the 38000000 that are primarily are the ones that have worked with the united states government. and then there are some other afghans who saw the opportunity of going to another country. many kids have left the country because of the lack of employment that actually give enough money to support your family. but the people that have worked with the us government over the last 20 years, certainly feel that their lives may be in danger because it's all

a bond. may take retribution against them. news to the 3 quarters of americans recently pulled, and i believe i've got mister once again become a breeding ground for international terrorist just like it was 20 years ago. i think he goes down for ports next and on. what went wrong with the us mission in ghana stern americans were promised a triumph. a whole generation was raised to the 2. no vows that the mission will be a success. we will win this conflict by the patient accumulation of successes. we will disrupt this mantle and to feed al qaeda while preventing afghanistan from, again serving as a base for terrorists. but instead of 2 decades on the u. s. finds itself in the middle of an exodus of truly biblical proportions. the american military has evacuated more than 80000 people in less than 2 weeks as of ghana and crumbled under the advance of the taliban.

the scaled and pace is unprecedented. 80000. yet this still swarms of people besieging the airport and bearing the fact that despite all efforts the u. s. withdrawal is still a catastrophic failure, especially to those who spend months and years thousands of miles away from family and friends trying to build an american dream. amid the sounds of gaston,

ah ah, when i joined the military, i was pretty ideal as i wanted to go out and serve my country right out of high school. i had sent back with my knees and stuff and i kept trying to get into mess . and i finally did, and i wanted to go to my country and law that stuff of mental, 35 years old. now it's wildly different. now it's you see things from they really are. and i feel like i feel like the war and i'm gonna send it over so they didn't have to last as long as we went there to go from paid. and then it should have been just that. and the worse it ended some time in the 2009 drag on the way it has the ross schools of veteran organizations, apparently seeking to secure a chat with the commander in chief who so far has remained elusive. failing to meet legation to leave against would not be

a national security risk. it would also condemn veterans and survivors of the conflict and have galveston to lifetime of moral injury. but the bite in administration is taking a stand here. the mission is a success, and that's the hill. they are ready to die on. what you do is you adjust and we've adjusted. and while we are continuing to face genuine challenges, we believe we are making progress. i would say that this is and now on track peter to be the largest air lift and us history. so, and that is bringing american citizens out, it is bring are asking partners out. it is bringing allies out. so no, i would not say that is anything but a success. well, it's not hard to tell how convincing they actually are. job biden's approval ratings plummeted in the wake of this operation. and the majority of americans, well, they remain unfazed by the supposedly high evacuation figures. and believe biden is

not doing enough to help those stuck in taliban ruled of ghana. stan, this is the mitigated do those 2 of epic proportions. this would be a stain on buttons, presidency. i think he's going to have blood on his hands for what they did. another bitter ring the allies in the fact that the us invaded afghanistan to get rid of the terrorist threat that was emanating from the country. yet now the hasty evacuation has raised concerns that some people who bought the american plains weren't vetted properly. yeah, people are upset with people. i talked to our ag it's completely botched. there is no. ready political will, and there are still americans trap in afghanistan and still haven't been able to get to go. and as far as lessons learned from, i mean other previous words. i mean, if we haven't learned from vietnam, if we didn't learn from, you know, from iraq and early to thousands. i mean,

we're just going to continue to make the same big mistakes because we're not the ones that are pocketing the mit. and we're just being used for the will of the mit and that's, and that's what i'd say about that. the 2 decades of america. and i've got to stand wrapped up with a resounding fiasco. and one can only guess how much more time it will take to mitigate whatever fall out it is still to bring as we saw and he goes, report the veterans voice. there are good other current situations played out. we also heard to from iraq cool veteran and fulman, marine snipers said you could check it, who now believes entering. i've got to start in the 1st place, was a mistake. the real tailor of this war and janet stan, or whatever you want to call that a conflict was explicitly pointed out in the dentist and papers where a lot of generals basically spoke about the fact that there was no mention. they had no mission, they didn't know what they were doing there, and they didn't know what they were going to do in the future anyway. so yes, of course, i think,

i think not even pulling out of just even invading up dana fan was a radio taylor. historically, no one has been ever able to conquer up dana. and so do you think that military us know, that sailed and more able to succeed in iraq? we're going to succeed and i've got to spend that. so that's really finding. so us withdrawal from a guy stands triggered phase of another refugee crisis for slaying outcomes. now looking to find a solid when the e u, a neighboring states, but next peter oliver has been finding out not everyone's waiting with open arms for these new arrivals. the european union is yet to set any figures for how many african refugees they intend to take in. we'll have been clear though, is european leaders saying they have no intention of seeing a repeat of 2015 refugee crisis. we do not want to relieve what we experienced in 2015. it is not the duty of the e u

o slovenia to help them pay everyone on the planet who is fleeing. instead of fighting for their homeland fights. like foster has the 2nd biggest community of africans in europe, much more than other you states with only sweden having more than us. now we have many problems within our country. we are not interested in becoming a failed states. the australian chancellor says there's no way more refugees will be arriving here on his watch. people on the streets of vienna though, we're much more mixed in their opinions. i think we should take refuge here because we have space. we have the money, we have everything. no more refugees we have enough and if we have the ability to help, why not everyone in europe hesitate, refugees, in fact demonstrations in support of doing more to help african refugees being taking place across the u and in the u. k.

the ah, the news like in 201520168 was germany that took in the lion's share of refugees coming to europe. now the german president is calling for europe to act with compassion to the need that recognizes that there has to be limit. we cannot take in all the people seeking a better life for good reasons, but we must grant refuge to those who have the right to protection and asylum under our laws. b. u wants refugees to seek shelter in neighboring countries and has pledged monies to hell. plot, but those who decide to try and use the route through,

i'm going to start to europe through northern iran and across turkey. set to face strong obstacles. ankara has approve the building of another 64 kilometers of border wall to keep refugees out. we want to show the whole world that our board is on possible. our biggest hope is that there is no migrant wave from afghanistan. we need to remind europe in france of this fact europe, which has become the center of attraction for millions of people, cannot stay out of the refugee problem by hostile is sewing its borders to protect the safety and well being of its citizens. moreover, with this attitude, europe not only violates international law, but also turns back on humanitarian values. turkey has no duty responsibility obligation to be europe's refugee warehouse and run and pakistan are already home to millions of african refugees, according to the united nations, germany and france. and right here in austria, also hi,

you are on the list. notably right down at the bottom though, is the united states switch as of 2020, it only take it in 2000 refugees from afghanistan with the current chaos. the result of the united states is decision to pull out the sure it to be called the washington to do more. instead of letting it's all eyes do the heavy lifting, feeder all of her all t vienna. yeah, that's a solis echo tube took his political analysts on eric, who believes the u. s. his tone of policy responsibility for the african christ his own to other nations. this is a worldwide international problem just because we are the, the nearest physically, the nearest country. that the african refugees seek refuge to doesn't necessarily should mean that we should be the only one dealing with turkey has been housing millions of syrian refugees. now adding more to this, it's really hard to bear with us is undoubtedly the only source of what's going on

. and that can stand right now. they've created the mess and now they're trying to avoid the, the, the consequences of that. they have already started, you know, looking out people can to african countries and they have also in the past week or so have leagues, i'm calling for statements to the media from the back channels that the cherokee may, may accept. most of these refugees on behalf of to us and the, the turkish. first of all, the president, the foreign minister, everybody has said, you know, as totally was a kansas and they had never heard of it. keeping a close eye on what's happening or not cavalier poor, but other news we're covering off the breakthrough than still ahead meeting the needs of an industry desperately shorter star presence in the u. k. can be put to work on renew schemes, revert labor crisis caused by the double blows. a coven, and breck said. but critics say it's exploitation. what do you think about just one

of the stories were across here into national, off to this break, the 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 when i would show the wrong one, i'll just don't rule out the thing because the after an engagement equals the trail,

when so many find themselves will depart. we choose to look for common ground. well, america is crazy. friends, party in afghanistan is over 20 years, leaving behind quite a man the the me ah, why for to the clubs. 22 minutes past the and those are the same for the bright. the prisoners in the u. k. could be used to avert a major shortage of work at the moment in key industries, including road haulage and apple was so inmates would be released on temporary license with the initiative. i mean to integrate them back into society. lack of manpower is being blamed on both breck sit in the panoramic and it's already seen gaps appearing on supermarket shelves. the current shortfall of run $90000.00 heavy

goods vehicle drivers, placing unsustainable pressure on retailers and their supply chains. and it's not just the lack of transport, food, food produces in restaurants, a source outside its sources of manpower with currently about $14000.00 and vacancies. according to the association of independent meets, the buyers may processes on the latest sex of the government in daily prison as can fill the gap right fit. and we look at corona irish. prior to breaks it, we had a large number of a migrant workers based in the country who were to to made some poky processing sector. but we're not just looking at prisoners and prison leaders to fill the shortage. we are looking at service personnel through their recruitment agency, given that we've tried to recruit from the case domestic labor force for months and months and months. and we still have

a lot of vacancies. we have to look at other pools of labor that are available. the public response to the idea of prisoners plugging the shortfall of that mix on social media and also on the street foot labor is morally wrong and unpaid job merging animals on the killing reduction line wouldn't be 1st choice for paying them back. oh, my god, let them use prisoners. you mean you want slaves because that's what you're saying for you. information under no circumstances can this be allowed to happen? the nightmarish combination of brazenly were slavery criminalizing of protest and extraordinary hiring cove. it in meat processing plans makes this recipe for sophia, considering that there is a lot of jobs out in the market right now that are not taken bike, as i can say, a lot of people they think that are a bit like, you know, below them. so i feel like if there are a lot of opportunities out there, why not to give a chance to people that have already some time out there and can actually do the

walk and make their contribution. you have to give them a chance to be really into this in the society. i'm not to be put down and i look at them like they're not doing well. where does navy shows and things like starting up the streets and things like that because it's getting productive work like him to the co promise and some of the other come national grid as well. they employ police fish business, otherwise, let people out of prison them to the job to go to the probably we commit the crime . i mean suppliers say that the prisoners pay and conditions are the same as regular employee. they also claim the inmates or model workforce. they didn't for you again, when released prisoners under the release from temporary license program eligible for voluntary labor. if successful such a program could set a precedent for the increased use of prison labor. any initiatives that assists prisoners gain employment upon release means great themselves back into our

communities is beneficial. ready for society, for ex offenders. so we welcome these initiatives that gave the opportunity for people to change their lives for the for the benefit of everyone. risk that are lots of opportunities to serve in presence again, skills that can get them, gainful employment, partner release, which can help them change their lives, benefit society and reduce the overall re offending rate with a 1000000 job vacancies, 9 to 2000 prisoners in the u. k, this sort of work is, might say, won't be, as well as some, suggesting it's close to exploit asian sets in the gray area when it comes to using cheap labor from a literally captive audience. saudi all t in london, new in a long standing compromise aimed at saving of conflict to the middle east is at risk of submit reports. israel's quietly allowing jewish people to pray on the sacred temple mouth something that governments long forbidden officially in

a bit to maintain a fragile religious balance. this is a clear provocation and the defamation and london of history and religion. this is an attack on what is written in the holy faith for the jewish people. and because of their me want to pray. there was part of june the tre, around the room, the the great tours jerusalem to the temperament. so if we can pray in the most holier said the closer it is the whole year. so that's why we want to treat the term hmo is a holy site for both jews and muslims. it's been a focal point of inter religious tension for decades. ever since israel captured the old city jerusalem from jordan back in 1967 way back. it prevented jews from praying at temple month in an attempt to try to keep the status quo the site. the apparent change in policy is feeling tensions. subatomic, it's to the muslim people this last part of the jewish course,

i don't like that you're not going to get our trans. they took our how our houses. they destroyed the houses without without knowing it was no reason. you cannot fail to someone don't pry gut dean in the holy place. so even for the muslim they, they need, they have to say to the government to, to bennet. we want the do, we pray and get them in the house of the temple? hopefully we'll get the opportunity to be able to pray there and public like we are praying every every day in the synagogues that eventually we should be able to do the same thing in the temple mount the head of the palestinian national christian coalition to be to delay on the things israel in neglecting establish, tried some muslims in the country by selecting selected rights for jews. israel is

trying to basically impose itself upon how to show you step by step, just like he does with the b settlement. illegals settlement activity in the west back into his juices. and it shows that the standard is your practices selected rights only for the jews. in other words, if we have a claim or there is a loss or a church in, in jobs and start and the stairs and started to shut it down and legal to pray there. we will be arrested just because we are not jews. but if the jews have a claim, you know, leather play, nothing to support of our rights. in our mosque, they are allowed to invade that place. and without permission practice,

which is totally unacceptable approved of the bigotry that runs instead of his nauseous, some small look at so some of the many very stories you've got for you today and features to check it out. the comment of social media, if you want to see more of what we're talking about today, and if you will just have a se, but it as well. but now coming up to pass the reporting from moscow, kevin, and the team. thank you for watching. whether you are the world and have a great day, me the one the make notes, borders and a lot number please. and you as emerge, we don't have a therapy. we go to the back seen world leads to take action and be ready. people
